The Best Animated Feature Categorey (Golden Globes Edition)


Sunday Nite I watched the golden globes and even though i put the nominations up when they were annouced was kinda like where is wall e in the comedy/musical cateogorey.
Cause the Golden Globes has nominated animated films in that categorey before like The Incredbiles, Finding Nemo,Toy Story, Chicken run, the little mermaid and Aladdin. 3 animated films have also won the cateogorey The Lion King,Toy Story 2, and Beauty and the beast. But I noticed that since the Golden Globes have not nominated anything animated for best musical/ comedy since they started there best animated feature categorey. Which I looked up and is true. In fact since they have started that categorey the only categorey animated films have managed to get nominations in is Best original song. Which has happened a total of 3 times with Happy Feet (which actually won) and for Bolt and Wall e.
The best animated feature cateogorey has been around at the golden globes for 3 years. In the previous 3 years both finding nemo and the incredibles got there best musical/ comedy nominations. In fact animated films have had nominations from 1992 til 2006 when there was none. but the 2005 film year wasn't the best for animation.
Really the Globes were giving animated films started with the 90's Disney boom alot of shit when previously they didn't care. and giving 3 animated films a best picture is pretty good. but that has died as you can see below it's kinda bleek.

So basically yes the Golden Globes did sending animation packing for major categories when previously they would give it a nomination or at least let a couple win. All though they are always shut out of orinial screenplay. But no animated film has ever gotten a nomination in that Categorey since the globes started.
It's kinda bullshit that Ratatouille got 5 nominations from the Oscars (original Score, sound, sound editing, orignal screenplay, best animated feature) and one nomination and it did win animated feature. espically considered most put it among the best of year. i mean do you think it was better then the films that were nominated for best comedy/ musical? actually i've seen most of them and yes it was.

Wall e is in the same boat. kinda stupid.


I know alot of people complain about the best animated feature categorey at any awards show. They say it ghetto's animated film. well in this case yes that is true. Is it true for the oscars well that post goes up post Oscar nominations see ya then.

Please consider they have no technical cateogories and it's the golden globes
