>only animation movie in history nominated for Best Picture back when only 5 movies could be nominated, instead of 10Is it really that good?
>>151839396It is, yes.
>>151839396It's great, just like every other Disney Renaissance movie.Great animation, charismatic characters, good design, memorable songs, the whole era was probably the pinnacle of 2D western animation.
>>151839396It was a pretty good year for awards buzz towards movies from less "prestigious" genres. Remember: the Best Picture winner was Silence of the Lambs.To answer your question: yes, it's really that good. I wonder what might have happened had it won Best Picture.
>>151840895>now when looking up 'Beauty and the Beast' you have to specify it's 'the 1991 version'
>>151839396>ground zero for furries
>>151841757What's wild to me is how much effort they did put into the live action version and how good some of it looks and even made these incredibly live action props to mix with the CG but then you also have some of the most soulless and obvious real actor talking to an empty room scenes of all time.
>>151839396I love this promo art so much, is so pretty!
>>151843778You know that's not true, even when just limiting it to Disney's library up to that point.
>>151839396Snow White should've been nominated back in the day but it didn't because people were autistic about muh cartoons = not real films even back then (despite the fact that it was the biggest film of all time when it released)
>>151839396It was revolutionary. Because it was nominated, the Academy created a beat animated feature category in 2001 to sabotage Shrek from getting nominated with the "real" movies. However, Toy Story 3 still got nominated for Best picture because it is that fucking good.
