She is NOT heading up to collect an award.
Ah, well. Maybe next year. At least nothing scored a Razzie, either.

No Razzies, but No Oscars for Anime in '09 Either
Just got through the nominee list and I didn't see anything. Pout pout.
This year's Academy Award nominees have just been announced, and while you may find the list interesting-- TWO alien movies up for Best Picture? Yowza! --you will NOT find any anime-related items on the list.
You may remember that the Studio Ghibli fantasy Ponyo was shortlisted for a nomination for Best Animated Feature, as was Imagi's adaptation of Astro Boy, but neither made it in that category, or any other-- I'm a bit disappointed that they couldn't even pull off an Art Direction nod or something along those lines. I didn't see anything on the Scientific and Technical awards, either, though I suppose that's to be expected.
Ah, well. Maybe next year. At least nothing scored a Razzie, either.

A Little Mermaid story, with the exception that in this version the mermaid is actually a goldfish named Ponyo

I remember there was an online site that tried to interview people about their reaction to that Dragonball Evolution movie as they were leaving. One person they talked to was walking out part way. No one even showed up for the next showing.
Although the Secret of Kells is a fantastic Irish/Belgian movie, w00t for nomination!
Wait the giant annual award shows actually have some kind of significance now?
When did this occur and who forgot to inform me?
Avatar is going to win everything anyways.
Complications included, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
Thankfully it won't win best picture. I can 90% guarantee "The Hurt Locker" will win there.
