Dragon 2... easily. It's somewhat shocking to not see The LEGO Movie in here. I guess that must be because of the l

ive-action segment in the film.

@tridon I know! Very shocked Lego Movie wasn't nominated, but that makes sense.
For me, i loved both Dragon 2 and Big Hero 6.

But Dragon 2 wins!
It's one of my favorite Animated movies, so good!

 

[Drum18]

What??? No Lego movie here???

 

[IRON MAN]

Weird that Lego Movie got snubbed. Phil Lord had the perfect response

From the nominees, I'd go with Big Hero 6 or HTTYD 2.

The Lego Movie was one of the worst of the year. IMO

 

[digitalbabe]

Haha @Apollon . I was surprised not to see it on the list, but I was not a fan, myself. It was fun, just lacking somehow in story, I don't know....

Lol my 2 wouldn't say that , they loved it .

Out of the ones I've seen I'd have to say dragon 2

 

[Ricker]

My 4 and 9 year old nephew and nicece hated it, after they bugged me to buy it for them

 

[Noodles]

Yep, very disappointed to see that The Lego Movie didn't make the list. I haven't seen any of the films that have been nominated, but Big Hero 6 and HTTYD2 are the only ones I'm interested in.

Bump for new members!

It would be something if Song of the Sea or Princess Kag won, imo

I would love to see Kaguya pull a victory. It is a beautiful film. Maybe I am old fashion by today's standards, but I find MOST (not all, notable exception: WALL-E and Toy Story Trilogy) computer animated films just don't have the warmth and magic that you get from hand drawn animation.
The last film I was happy to see win in the best animated film category at the oscars was Toy Story 3 back in 2010.
Last year, Frozen beating out Wind Rises! Seriously. Ahh, leaves me scratching my head to this day!

 

[digitalbabe]

@steellogic yes, it seems like some of these smaller films (Grave of the Fireflies comes to mind as well) have a warmth and level of emotion that is just not often captured. Of course comparing Toy Story to GOF makes no sense as they are completely different films, but speaking just about the animation, there is some expression that is lost with some types of animation, imo.

BH6 was ok, nothing really stood out for me not even HTTYD2

 

[digitalbabe]

Was kinda hoping for an 'upset' of sorts for this category.
