Congratulations Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile. This is your week. Looks like I’ll be watching you soon.
And the Oscar goes to…
Best Actress:
I haven’t seen any of these movies, so I’m going to go with child actors who were voice talents for each movie. For this category: Zaris-Angel Hator as Maisie in The Sea Beast.
Best Actor: Winslow Fegley as Josh in Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile
Best Quote: “Don’t mind us. Just robbing this place.” — Sam Rockwell as Mr. Wolf in The Bad Guys
None of this week’s MOTW picks were nominated for Best Animated Motion Picture at the Golden Globes. Of the ones that were, I think the winner will be either Turning Red or Guillermo Del Toro’s Pinocchio. My pick would, obviously, be the latter.
