The Dreamworks Animation film The Wild Robot was not only nominated in the animated feature category, but also for best sound (Randy Thom, Brian Chumney, Gary A. Rizzo, Leff Lefferts) and original score (Kris Bowers). The Latvian-led European co-production Flow was nominated in both the animated feature and international feature film categories.

Besides The Wild Robot and Flow, three other films round out the animated feature category: Disney-Pixar’s Inside Out 2, Adam Elliot’s Memoir of a Snail, and Aardman Animations’ Wallace & Gromit: Vengeance Most Fowl. It’s an excellent group of films, though it could hardly be called a surprise. Although 31 films qualified for the category, this same group of films has been nominated repeatedly this season.
