Oscars 2021: Final Predictions For Nominations In Every Category

11. Best Animated Feature

Promising Young Woman Ma Rainey's Black Bottom Sound of Metal
Pixar

NOMINEES:

The Croods: A New Age

Onward

Over the Moon

Soul

Wolfwalkers

The animated field isn't a particularly competitive category this year - Soul is clearly walking away with it - and there's little reason to expect any major surprises among the five nominees.

The only possibility - and it's a scant one at that - is that Earwig and the Witch could edge out Over the Moon, but given the former's wildly mixed reviews and the latter's stronger acclaim and Netflix availability, it seems highly unlikely.

Either way, this should mark the first year that two Pixar films received nominations.
