I know what won’t win – that Olaf short. They are pulling it from theaters due to customer complaints!

(https://deadline.com/2017/12/oscars-animated-short-film-finalists-list-1202219649/)December 4, 2017 at 12:36 pm #1202429310Shut out or ineligible for Annies: Fox and the Whale, Garden Party, In a Heartbeat, Life Smartphone, Lost Property Office, Lou
Nominated in a “program” category and nothing else: Cradle, Dear Basketball, Negative Space, Revolting Rhymes
Multiple nominations, but not on shortlist: Olaf’s Frozen Adventure
Spin-off to a past nominee and now up for a “program” Annie, but not on the shortlist: Pig: The Dam Keeper Poems
I really thought that this post would be more insightful when I started writing it.

5. LouDecember 4, 2017 at 2:37 pm #1202429414Thanks for posting Sagand. I hope everyone watches soon. They often pull these once they get in the Oscar race. So people will pay to see the short compilation in February.

That’s my personal favorite to win.

There isn’t usually a long gap between the lists. So probably within the next week.
