7/7/2023 0 Comments Animated movie piper oscarThe Academy voters are notorious for continuously sidelining the animation category, speaking up in interviews about how they didn’t bother to watch all the movies, and only voting for the most recognizable titles from the biggest companies. Every other time a non-Pixar movie has won, it was in a year where there was no eligible Pixar movie to nominate. There have only been three instances where a non-Pixar film beat a nominated Pixar film, and three cases where eligible Pixar films weren’t nominated at all. In the 20 years that Best Animated Feature has been a category at the Academy Awards, Pixar movies have won 10 times - and in years when a Pixar movie was in competition, they’ve rarely lost. Wolfwalkers fans had vocally hoped for more, but still, this was entirely expected. Up against Netflix’s Over the Moon, Aardman Animation’s Shaun the Sheep: Farmageddon, Pixar’s Onward, and Cartoon Saloon’s Wolfwalkers, Soul snagged the top prize. At the 93rd Academy Awards on Sunday, Soul won the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
