'Incredibles 2' Leads The 2018 Annie Awards Nominations

The Annie Awards Nominations are in, and Incredibles 2 is cleaning up. This year's awards, which are presented by the Los Angeles branch of the International Animated Film Association to recognize excellence in animation in film and television, have singled out Incredibles 2 and Ralph Breaks the Internet –  both Disney properties – with the most nominations. But Isle of Dogs and Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse are in the race as well. See the full list of nominees below.

Having now seen Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse, I can say without question that it's the best animated film of 2018. Which means awards bodies will probably ignore it in favor of other stuff! Case in point: the Annie Awards just blessed Incredibles 2 with 11 nominations, and Ralph Breaks the Internet with 10. I'm not saying those films are bad and don't deserve a nomination or a dozen. I'm just saying that Into the Spider-Verse deserves more. Oh, well.

Incredibles 2 nominations include Best Director for Brad Bird, Best Animated Effects, Character Animation, Character Design, Music, Voice Acting for Holly Hunter, Writing for Bird, editorial and storyboarding. Ralph earned nominations for Directors Rich Moore and Phil Johnston, Animated Effects, character Animation, Character Design, Music, Storyboarding, Voice Acting for Sarah Silverman, and Writing for Johnston and Pamela Ribon. These are both big Disney properties, and I would not be surprised to see either of them win.

As for the small screen, animated TV shows to get a nod include BoJack Horseman, Big Mouth, Bob's Burgers and The Venture Brothers (give BoJack all the awards, please). As far as streaming goes, Netflix landed the most nominations, with 26 total. Amazon earned 8. Better pick up the slack, Amazon.

The 46th annual Annie Awards will be held on Saturday, February 2, 2019. The full list of nominees is below.
