What other movies have been made that are like it    Selecting the “animation” category under “genres” and then refining this to the subgenre of “computer animation” results in a list of thirty-seven films. Actually finding the computer animation category on Amazon is more confusing than it should be.   In order to accomplish this, we need both a list of films similar to ours and information on those films’ budgets, box office grosses, and even their popularity on video and DVD. www.auburn.edu /~millekb/1120/example-p.html   (927 words)

Animation World Magazine Financed by Pathé and DreamWorks and benefiting from their worldwide distribution networks, the film is in a totally different category from other European films, if in no other terms than its budget, considerably higher than any other animated film in Europe. Yet a number of European animated features, such as Kirikou and the Sorceress, Chicken Run, Belleville Rendez-Vous, Lucky and Zorba, Raining Cats and Frogs, Black Mor’s Treasure, are, whatever their flaws, proof of a new creative energy. The film is all the more problematic as an example since Aardman’s production of further feature films seems, for the moment, to be somewhat delayed. mag.awn.com /?ltype=pageone&article_no=1959   (557 words)

Best Animated Feature 2002? - DVDtoons Forums Even though animated films have their own category now, I think the Academy members will still not take it seriously, and just put down what their kids liked best.

In the animated short subjects category, there were at least 8 years in which Disney had 2 nominations, and one year when they had three! forums.dvdtoons.com /showthread.php?t=488   (960 words)

Animated Films Animation, fairy tales, and stop-motion films often appeal to children, but it would marginalize animations to view them only as "children's entertainment." Animated films are often directed to, or appeal most to children, but easily can be enjoyed by all. A classic animator in the early days of cinema was Walt Disney, originally an advertising cartoonist who initially experimented with combining animated and live-action films. The first animated character that attained superstar status (and was anthropomorphic) during the silent era was the mischievous Felix the Cat, in Pat Sullivan Studios. www.filmsite.org /animatedfilms.html   (446 words)

Latest News -- A New Academy Award Category! The short film category was split into two to distingish between short animated films and short live action films, so they contended that since more and more animated films were being released, that it was not fair for animated films to compete on the same level as live action feature length films. For many years, especially since the resurgence of feature length animation not only by Disney, but also by companies like Fox and Dreamworks, many industry people had lobbied the Academy for a single Oscar category for feature length animated films. A recommendation on whether or not to activate the category in a given year will be made by the executive committee of the short films and feature animation branch, which will review all of the feature animation films released in Los Angeles County during the year to determine their eligibility. www.suite101.com /article.cfm/academy_awards/49625   (461 words)

Central Europe Review - Oberhausen: Experimental Spaces While a split in the category to group animated films apart from those using live actors may have added some coherence, this category at Oberhausen was an overall delight. This year's Oberhausen International Short Film Festival, the forty-sixth in the series, was marked by a striking increase in the number and quality of innovative films and was rewarded with yet another increase in attendance. German films were particularly well represented in the festival's five competitive categories, likely owing considerably to the German government's support of the industry. www.ce-review.org /00/21/kinoeye21_dewit.html   (652 words)

Cary Elwes Elwes is interested in history and says, "It's deliberate that a lot of my films have been period pieces." Among the films he's played in that fit that category are Robin Hood: Men in Tights (1993), The Cat's Meow (2001) and Ella Enchanted (2004). Since then, his career has taken off, playing roles in films such as Days of Thunder (1990), Dracula (1992), Liar Liar (1997) to mention a few, as well as doing voice work on animated features such as Quest for Camelot (1998) and TV's Hercules (1998).

PeterDavid.net: THE OSCARS And Pixar is doing such a great job making these films for Disney that Disney recently decided to shut down their Florida animation studios and stop making traditional hand-painted animated features. Best Animated Feature at least allows for a possible (actually, very likely) award for FINDING NEMO, a movie which deserves to be honored alongside, rather than instead of, several very strong contenders. Had the Best Animation category existed at the time of BandB, it would have won an Oscar, one that it deserved (though I am in agreement with the Best Picture nod to SILENCE OF THE LAMBS). peterdavid.malibulist.com /archives/000723.html   (354 words)
