BEST SHORT: ANIMATED / LIVE ACTION / DOCUMENTARY

TJ: So, let’s start with the shorts. I’ve only seen one. But I’m picking it to win Best Animated Short. Piper was adorable.

David: Piper should be the leading candidate. It has also been awhile since Pixar has one in Best Animated Short – a lot of upsets.

TJ: And with Pixar not having a nomination in the feature category, this could be a decent secondary prize for the studio.

David: Poor Pixar. I hope the billions help. I have not seen nor will see any short for this year. So I’ll take your word.

TJ: It was good. I’ll watch them before the ceremony, I hope. I’m taking Joe’s Violin and Ennemis Interieurs for Doc Short and Live Action Short respectively. Those two categories seem a lot closer than Animated Short.

David: I like to go with the saddest sounding ones, not knowing a lot about them. Give me La Femme et la TGV (film), Blind Vasha (animated) and 4.1 Miles (doc) as some wild cards. Shorts are typically ballot bloodbaths – separating ties and declaring winners

TJ: Nice. I picked Joe’s Violin in hopes that it’s just 5 minutes of my old friend Joe holding a violin. I’d vote for that.

David: Joe seems like a good guy. Good for him.
