| It's up against Toy Story 3, so it won't win. That is all. A nomination will be nice though. |
Current FAL Ranking + Previous best::  [ |
| I don't think Summer Wars has a chance against Disney films, to be honest. At least it got nominated! |
 |
| Probably won't win, but it got nominated, so that's something :) |
| It won't beat Toy Story 3 as well it shouldn't, but pretty cool that it's there. Evangelion 2.0 should be there though I mean seriously |

Earth gets angry after a kick in the face. |
| well at least it got nominated! .... |
| i wish it would win but in reality that wont happen congrats to its nomination though |
| To be qualified is already great, if it does get nominated then it's even better! Of course, highly unlikely it'll win. |
 |
| I enjoyed the film so much, so I'm glad that it got qualified. However, have you seen some the shit that nominated along with it? Oh god. WTF, Cats ad Dogs? Why. |

p r o f i l e 👀 |
| My favorite animation movies were nominated! I don't think Summer War will win though, Toy Story 3 and Despicable Me were just too awesome in my opinion. |

 |
| I personnally don't think that Summer Wars deserve an Oscar. |
 |
| Well it's completely justified so... But yeah, I don't think it has a chance against Disney Films. |
| Sometimes the most obvious movies don't win. Then again, it's Toy Story 3 so it probably will win. |
 |
| nomination is good enough, leave it at that. |
| Not bad. The last time an anime made it really big at the Academy Awards was Sen to Chihiro no Kamikakushi, or Spirited Away. Let's hope Summer Wars does just as well. |
 |
| Heard some rumours that the third nominated will be "tangled", can't give a proper opinion because haven't seen it... That said, the rumours says that the 2 obvious first nominees are "Toy Story 3" and "How to train your Dragon", not sure about the second though... |
| Well, basically it will be a fight for getting the 3rd nomination, I am pretty sure Toy Story 3 and How to Train Your Dragon will get nominated, they are by far the most critically acclaimed animation movies of the year and both deserve the nomination imo. |
 |
| It's nice to see it getting qualified as a nomination at least. |

Yandy said: I personnally don't think that Summer Wars deserve an Oscar. Agreed. It wasn't a horrible movie, but the writing really wasn't that good. |
| Nice, Summer Wars got nominated. I agree with most people and I personally think that it most likely won't win, but I think it's just because I'm too used to Western films and therefore have a passive bias towards them. I really liked Toy Story 3, but Summer Wars did give my heartstrings a little tingle as well. Ah well, best of luck then :) |
| Guys, stop saying it has been nominated. It hasn't. It has only qualified for nomination. The same thing happened last year for Sword of the Stranger. |
| I just love how everyone is "It's good that it was nominated/qualified, but it won't win" lol It was already time this movie appeared in the news again. Its hype seems endless, although it wasn't a fantastic film in my view. So, personally, I don't agree much on its qualifying. |
| The Oscar goes to Toy Story 3 |
| Fuck Disney! Summers Wars is a lot better than all that Hollywood crap. Hope something changes this year. |
| How to Train You Dragon! <3 |
 |
| Just think Avatar didn't win best picture so Toy Story 3 may not either depending on what the Judging is base on hype or actual story line. But, since the hype is greater then most of the other animated one's T.S. 3 will sadly win handedly the Oscar (glorified pat on the back). A nomination is fair if it deserves to be. |

| Toy Story 3 and How to Train Your Dragon are shoe in's in my book; other than Summer Wars, the rest of that list looks laughable at best... |
Pw3age said: Yeah...so true...I don't think Summer Wars has a chance against Disney films, to be honest. At least it got nominated! though it's one of the best movies I've seen.. |

Pw3age said: I don't think Summer Wars has a chance against Disney films, to be honest. At least it got nominated! i definitely agree with u |
| HAHA, good one. |
| I doubt it will get the nomination. At least, there's not chance of winning against The Illusionist and Toy Story 3. |
| -Fixing- |
| ^ Even so, the nomination is still possible. And i should watch this movie now... |

| Cats & Dogs: The Revenge of Kitty Galore <--- hell no and yeah nomination is nice :3 |
     |
| Wow.. being nominated together with TS3 and Shrek.. amazing. XD |
     |
| I've never liked Toys Story.. but how could an Anime movie be nominated here |
Live well - Laugh often - and Love much |
| Prolly cause of the sweet CG style computer world it had is the reason why it even got qualified, since that is the only thing that was really above average when it comes to animation for that movie. |
