Frozen, as expected, was nominated for Best Animated Feature Film and for Best Song ("Let it Go"). I was disappointed that Monsters University wasn't nominated for Animated Feature. I would've chosen it over nominees The Croods and Despicable Me 2. I don't think Frozen is a slam dunk to win in this category like it was at the Golden Globes. At the Oscars, it's up against The Wind Rises, Hayao Miyazaki's well regarded swan song which opens in U.S. theaters on February 21st.
Who knew The Lone Ranger would get more nominations than Saving Mr. Banks? Gore Verbinski's overblown western received nods for Makeup and Hairstyling and Visual Effects. In other news, it also got five Razzie nominations.
On the Marvel side, Iron Man 3 also picked up a nomination for Visual Effects.
The Oscars will be televised on ABC March 2nd and hosted by Ellen DeGeneres.
