Disney's 2004 Film Awards Drive - For Your Consideration

Post by Luke »

Found it amusing that for <i>The Incredibles</i>, Disney simply has a "For Your Consideration - All Categories". I doubt it will get much attention in the Best Foreign Film, Best Documentary, Shorts, and Best Original Song categories. ;)

For <i>Home on the Range</i>, Original Song ("Will the Sun Ever Shine Again"), Original Score, and Animated Film are sought.

The others...

<i>America's Heart & Soul</i> - Original Song ("The World Don't Bother Me None")
<i>The Life Aquatic</i> - all categories
<i>The Village</i> - Best Actress (Bryce Dallas Howard), Cinematography, Sound Editing, Sound Mixing, and Original Score
<i>Ladder 49</i> - Best Film Editing, Sound Mixing, Original Score, and Original Song ("Shine Your Light")

No push for <i>Teacher's Pet</i>? That's a shame. I enjoyed it more than <i>Home on the Range</i>. Then again, the Animated Film Category looks pretty clearly to be a category with two serious competitors at this point.

By the way, Buena Vista's Awards site is here:

I hope a song from Home on the Range wins, Little Patch of Heaven is by far one of the best songs ever written for a Disney film, too bad the story was a mixed bag. Will the sun ever shine again is also amazing.

Are you kidding me? They should go for best song with the yodel song by the cattle rustler guy. THat was the best part of Home on the Range.

I really hope Home on the Range wins at least one award. I love that Little film soooooooooooooooooo much! I know it's not Disney's most popular or successful, but it's not really as bad as people seem to make out! Fingers Crossed!

Oh and a memo to all of those of you who live in the UK, what have you got to remember to do on November 29th?

Need a clue?

Well, once again Disney is choosing the low route for their animated musicals, "Concentrate on this one song that we deem the best!" If they didnt' get one for Brother Bear, I doubt they'll get one for Home on the Range. The should push A Little Patch of Heaven! :)

Frankly, I'm quite surprised their investing good dollars in The Village. I highly doubt any nominations will come into fruition. I thought they would commit category fraud and Promote Bryce Dallas Howard as supporting, rather than lead. Normally, I'm against that, but in this case, I think it might have been for the best.

Well I just saw not one but two Flash "For Your Consideration" ads for <i>Teacher's Pet</i> on The Hollywood Reporter. :pink:

Wahoo! Teacher's Pet for Best Animated Movie, Best Original Script and Best Original Song!

Teacher's Pet should rock the Academy's world! :D

Hmm. That's strange. Why isn't the song "Breakaway" from the Princess Diaries 2 nominated for Best Original Song? Doesn't the song count? The only three songs I can think of that deserve Best Original Song nominations are this one, "Accendentally in Love" from Shrek 2, and "Will the Sun Ever Shine Again?" from Home on the Range.
