This year will mark the twelfth year that the Academy Awards have featured the Best Animated Feature category, and now the full list of submissions has been released, totalling twenty-one for this year’s entries for consideration.
Last year, Gore Verbinski’s Rango took home the Oscar, fighting off competition in the form of A Cat in Paris, Chico & Rita, Kung Fu Panda 2, and Puss in Boots.
With twenty-one films now officially submitted, we’re really looking forward to seeing the final list of nominees in January – with so many excellent possibilities, it’s going to be a very tough one to call.

This year's animated feature race still feels like a mystery: Brave wasn't beloved enough to slide right into Pixar winner position; Frankenweenie wasn't popular enough despite its fun aesthetic achievements; ParaNorman was a hit but not a huge one; Madagascar 3 was very well reviewed and a huge hit but the third in a series Oscar hasn't cared for; and so on.
With 21 eligible features this year we'll have five nominees and unless either Rise of the Guardians or Wreck It Ralph (just opened) are across the board sensations, we'll have a real race.

In my predictions I had 17 animated films that looked like they would be contending for Best Animated Feature at this year's Oscars. Of those 17, all but one made the final list of what turned out to be 21 total films. Disney's joint effort with Utv Pictures, Arjun: The Warrior Prince, did not make the final list despite word it would be getting an Oscar qualifying run. My assumption is the fact the film was available on Netflix Instant before it ever had that run, which would make it ineligible, but unfortunately I was unable to get anyone from Disney on the phone for confirmation before posting this article. As for the five new films I hadn't previously counted on, they include Adventures in Zambezia, Delhi Safari, Hey Krishna, The Mystical Laws and Walter & Tandoori's Christmas. At this moment I don't have any information on these five films, but I have already...
