“Isle of Dogs,” Wes Anderson

“Mirai,” Mamoru Hosoda

“Ralph Breaks the Internet,” Rich Moore, Phil Johnston

“Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse,” Bob Persichetti, Peter Ramsey, Rodney Rothman

Incredibles 2 had this in the bag until Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse came out, and rightly so. Pixar has been releasing some of the most inventive animated movie magic for decades now, and it’s pretty astounding the level of quality they’ve been able to maintain over the years. But Sony’s Spider-Man was thematically and visually game-changing – bringing a Pixar-level brand of invention, diversity, and humor that hasn’t been seen much outside of Pixar in years. So, into the Spider-Verse we go on Oscar night, and deservedly so.incredible.
