The Animated movies are a big deal as the live-action films when it comes to Oscars, so we still think they should compete with the Best Picture winners. We don't mind even if the nominees increase. Anyway, this year we have five incredible nominations in the category. There is the superhero animated film, Spider-Man: Into The Spider-verse, that is every geek's bet this year. Disney had two to back on this year, with Incredibles 2 (along with Pixar) and Ralph Breaks The Internet. The Southeast cinema is represented by the wonderful Mirai. And finishing the list is Wes Anderson's stop-motion film, Isle of Dogs. Oscars 2019 Best Animated Feature Winner Predictions: Isle of Dogs, Incredibles 2, Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse – Who Will Win the Trophy at 91st Academy Awards?

And the geeks are happy as Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse wins the Besty Animated feature award. It was directed by  Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, and Rodney Rothman, with the creative involvement of Phil Lord and Christopher Miller of The Lego Movie fame.

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse was considered as one of the best-animated films in the last decade as well as the best superhero film as well. It introduces Miles Morales as the next Spider-Man on the big screen, while there are other iterations of Spider also involved like Peter Parker, Peni Parker, Spider-Gwen, Spider-Man Noir and Spider-Ham.
