No nominations for Winnie the Pooh or any of the foreign movies. No song nominations for Muppets or Captain America either. The Globes are such a joke.

The Smurfs is ruled in-eligible for Best Animated Feature.
Why is Alvin and the Chipmunks eligible, but not Smurfs? Now I have not seen Alvin (as I despise those annoying squeaky-voiced demons so very much), but I did see The Smurfs and those blue elves are definitely in more than 75% of the running time. Even Azrael the Cat is fully animated at some points. In the opening fifteen minutes alone, the only non-animated character is Gargamel.
So, I'm very confused by this.

It seems I'm in the minority but I found Rango to be lifeless and unwatchable. I tried 3 times getting into that movie and turned it off halfway through the first two times and forced myself to watch it the third. Yuck! While Depp did a good job voice acting there was nothing else to redeem it in my eyes.
Puss in Boots is more annoying Shrek garbage. The first Happy Feet was crap... definitely didn't need more of that. Move on please.
Adventures of Tintin, Smurfs and the overrated chipmunks don't belong in this category.
Arthur Christmas was cute and a decent holiday movie but nothing spectacular. Rio was a movie my kids enjoyed a lot. The evil bird song was the best villian song since Scar's outstanding diddy... well Oogie's as well.
Winnie the Pooh was fun and Cars 2 I actually enjoyed more than most. Haven't seen Kung Fu Panda 2 but the first was awesome.

You are not alone on Rango. I am not nearly as harsh as you are but the film is not very engaging. And the bits with the armadillo and the Spirit of the West are nonsense where the film makers are trying to be profound.Gurgi30 wrote:It seems I'm in the minority but I found Rango to be lifeless and unwatchable.

I am also one of those who thinks that Pixar is overrated but this view has been challenged somewhat with the undeserved critical bashing of Cars 2 which though not brilliant, is fun and might well deserve a nomination in this weak field.

I guess I am the one that is in the minority because I think "Rango" was one of the best of the animated films to come out this past year. I liked the voice characterizations, and the story was very good. I thought the animation was very well done, and am proud to have it in my Blu-ray collection.
I do think "Rango" was more of an adult animated film, although my grandkids seem to really like it a lot. Some of the things that I laugh at just cause them to turn their head and look at me as if to say "what's so funny"?
I thought that "Rango" could have been nominated just as easy as be passed over, and it did get passed over. I would put it in the same category as "Kung Fu Panda 2" and "Cars 2" as one of the better films of the past year.
