Oscars are BS.
Pinocchio just won best animated film, can you believe it? It's the nth remake of a film based on a 140 years old novel!! They are running out of ideas.




When Koe no Katachi -the best animated film in history- was released, it wasn't even nominated, LOL.

Anyways, can't wait to watch Suzume no Tojimari, it will be available in my country next month. This will be my first time ever watching anime in a theater/cinema as an adult.

It's funny to read this in discussions about Shinkai's film.

Pinocchio was great although I actually liked the new Puss in Boots film a bit more which is something I never thought I'd say.

I'm more of a Your Name guy myself but yeah it would have been nice if one of the two was nominated. To be fair the animated feature category in the 89th Academy Awards was very strong even without those two and as someone who hates all awards shows I shouldn't even be talking about this stuff but I don't find the 89th Academy Awards nominees for best animated feature ti be as controversial as anime fans seem to.

have you watched Del Toro's Pinocchio yet? i don't know why you disregard the movie when you even haven't watched Suzume as a comparison for yourself 🤔

Pinocchio Slander on my Suzume Discussion??? hell naw

Dunno why you're comparing 2 different kinds of animation and genre even. it's like comparing Scream with V for Vendetta. Totally different shit but they both wear mask. 

I agree with Oscar's being biased and shit cause one of the critics were already ousted for ignoring foreign films and having the animation for children mentality. 

But that doesn't mean GDT's Pinocchio was bad, it had risks, creativity, and it had a really good production quality, direction, writing symbolism etc.

Any more argument of Pinocchio v Suzume and Oscars caring about animation is more of a joke lmao.

lets not kid ourselves even an anime centric film awards is also biased "Anime Movie of The Year goes to.... KIMETSU NO YAIBA". so i don't really think awards is that much to go by than personal reception of the film. I would rather go to MAL's shitty reviews than use awards as a metric

That's obvious. Makoto Shinkai always have a best plotwist which we never though of. This movie have a good OST and the graphics are very beautiful. Makoto Shinkai movies never disappoint. I almost cry at the end of movie. And the ending was good. Even though it's just a natural disaster story, but the story was good. The story not boring and make us enjoying while watching.

did Suzume even qualify for the academy awards for this year? I’m not sure how that works but I thought it would qualify for next year’s awards. Either way, I can’t wait to go see it april 14, that’s when it hits theaters by me.

No it did not qualify. Its North American release is in april and it did not get a limited LA release.

Just the fact that the oscars have a animated film category makea it BS in itself.

Animation is not a genre. Animated film should compete in their respective genre category.

Pinocchio is a lot better tbh.


    Grant me one hour on love's most sacred shores
    To clasp the bosom that my soul adores,
    Lie heart to heart and merge my soul with yours

Pinocchio clears but that’s no disrespect to shinkai just a testament to how good Pinocchio was.
