A pretty immovable top 3 once again but new this month is the Studio Ghibli offering Earwig and the Witch form Gorô Miyazaki, son of the legendary Hayao Miyazaki, himself an Oscar winner for Spirited Away, the second year of the category’s inception.
This year could find itself with all original films in the final lineup. While there are some sequels and existing IPs about, like the sequels to The Croods, Trolls and Shaun the Sheep that could break up the party, overall the contenders are fresher, newer material.
Here are my ranked 2021 Oscar predictions in Animated Feature for November.
