Oscars 2012 Poll: Who Will Win Best Animated Short? Longlist Vote
The nights are drawing in, the days are getting colder and still the gentle reminder that award season is looming upon us begins to hang in the air as the first glimmer of speculation creeps into the consciousness of those eager to see their favourite film take away an award. The Academy have released the following films that have been screened before voting will whittle the numbers down twice before a final 5 will be shortlisted for the main award ceremony honouring the films of 2012 on the 24th February 2013
Last years winner, ‘The Fantastic Flying Books of Morris Lessmore’
Last year we opened up the polls to the Skwigly readership with only 2% of you voting for the final victor ‘The Fantastic Flying books of Mr. Morris Lessmore’ and a mighty 19% wishing for David O’Reillys ‘External World’ to win. We want you all to vote here again. You don’t have to have seen every film, just go with your favourite and tell us why in the comments below.
