In a year without Pixar, the Disney hit just needs to knock down
Sometime last Sunday, the big movie story of the weekend changed from everything
(its science, its running time, the quality of its sound mix) to the fact that Christopher Nolan’s conversation-hogging blockbuster was trumped at the box-office by a puffy white balloon robot. Disney and Marvel’s
took the top spot, leading to a bevy of “how did this happen?” articles.
Regardless of how it happened, now that it has, the future for the animated superhero tale is promising—so much so that it could end up with an Oscar. Right now, the Best Animated Feature category looks to be a fascinating, tough contest between
The Seven Films That Can Still Win the Oscar for Best Picture

in 2010 ended up among the 10 Best Picture nominees those years, and both walked to easy victories in the animated category.
Be a massive blockbuster: Only two of the last 14 winners in this category have failed to crack $100 million, and in fact all but two of
movies failed to crack $200 million. If popularity isn\'t king in this category, it\'s at least a crown prince.
Be Pixar: The animation studio has utterly dominated this category over the years, winning seven of the nine years in which it had a film nominated. Even a film like
, which had decidedly not set the world on fire like its predecessors, still managed to triumph in 2012 over a field that failed to produce a clear frontrunner. All things being equal, being Pixar sure helps.
