Those watching last nights Academy Awards noted that Pixar’s “UP” won in two categories: Animated Feature Film and Music (Original Score). “UP” was nominated for Best Picture, but lost to “The Hurt Locker.”

I liked “Up”, but I thought “Coraline” should have won.
Congratulations Pete and crew! Very excited to see you win and hear your gracious acceptance speech!
Now, that being said, I want an Ellie badge! 🙂

In a country where animation isn’t thought of as “for kids”, UP would have won Best Picture.
Most of the voting members of the academy are actors. They’re naturally going to have a predisposition toward live action movies, if only to promote their livelihood. Avatar suffered for the same reason.
