This is my first year watching the Animated Shorts. That doesn’t mean people who like them or make them are evil, it just means that I’ve never been able to get my grubby hands on them. I have my hands on them now, at least most of them.
I’ll be cheering for: Maestro all day, everyday. I would accept a Little Matchgirl win as a consolation.
Who will win: It’s simply got to be Maestro. It’s innovative and clever, worthy of the top prize.
If you want to catch the shorts yourself they will be in select theaters on February 16 (more on that here) and then be sure to check out all of our 2007 Oscar coverage right here.
