There is not love for Australia. None at all. :(

Apparently they're waiting until our next school holiday period.

Yeah, but that one's never recognized international animated film. I've seen plenty of movies outside of Hollywood that still were released in US theaters and blow anything Pixar's done away.

Still haven't seen Wall-E, although for the hype I'd really hope it's better than Nemo.

Nemo was amusing, but not particularily inspiring.

I just realized that I haven't seen this yet. Maybe I should go rent it or something. It sounds interesting, and I usually like Pixar movies, save Cars.

^Cars wasn't great though - definitely not Pixar's best effort.

I didn't like Cars because all of it's characters were either generic, forgettable, or just lame.

I liked Ratatouille, though.

The fact that Happy Feet has won an award shows how good the Academy is at for picking animated movies.

For some reason, I keep forgetting Ratatouille is a Pixar film. It's odd.

I've seen Wall-E, and I must say it's not as good as I thought it would be.

Too true. I know I was disappointed when they gave the Oscar to 'Finding Nemo' instead of 'Triplets of Belleville'. Likewise when 'Paprika' failed even to get nominated a couple years back...

I think only the perceived upset in the Best Animated Film category was when Spirited Away won the award in 2003 (still want to see that film).

That said, I think Wall-E is a shoe-in to win this year, because I considered it not only a great animated film, but a great film in general.

I remember that. It pissed me off.
