Who Should Win

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse

Despite the ridiculous charm of Isle of Dogs, Spider-Verse is the clear choice here. The visual style, which merges computer animation with hand-drawn comic book panels, is as breathtaking as it is innovative. That alone would put it in contention, but it then delivers a super smart, wickedly funny multi-verse narrative on top of that.

Who Will Win

Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse

Even the Oscars are recognising comic book movies this year, which is great news for Into The Spider-Verse. It's been sweeping up all awards season - The BAFTA, the Golden Globe, Critics' Choice, and six Annies - and despite the fact this usually goes to Pixar or Disney, there should be no stopping this on awards night.
