---Out of 136 ratings---

Some pretty decent thriller/horror choices for this year, but I can't say it was a year of great live films for me. Not a single masterpiece in fact only decent & mediocre stuff.

The best things on this year were actually all animated. The French b&w artistic Persepolis, Pixar's Ratatouille, the Spanish fantasy Nocturna & some amazing anime series (mostly miniseries) such as

Mononoke (great atmospheric horror with unique art style)
Shigurui (It can't get any darker than that for a samurai era - jaw-dropping artwork/mature content)
Guardian of the Sacred Spirit (best character-driven fantasy in years)
Towards the Terra (best sci-fi plot in years)

Sadly this jump in animation quality only lasted for that one year. No other year after that ever reached that peak in terms of quantity vs quality in animation.

As for foreign films I liked the german Counterfeiters and the Serbian Klopca (The trap). Best horror was by far the Spanish "Rec". Best Short was "Arka". I may (or not) post a list with points but I don't think it's a great year for that. Imagine that I would have to post an almost exclusively animation/horror list.

1 (5 pts): My Winnipeg

I'm using the directors category (instead of the films category) to promote some anime series, since they're not films, but they do have directors. If you count animation as cinematography, then nothing can compete with Mononoke in that category.

[Kasparius]

Kind of a complete waste of a category...

[mjf314]

Kind of a complete waste of a category...

It's hard to separate "best director" from "best film," so giving My Winnipeg a best director nomination isn't going to convince more people to watch it, but if Mononoke gets a few nominations, maybe it'll draw some attention to it.

Mononoke is not going to get into the top 5 though, so you're better off voting for something that has a shot.

And animation is not cinematography, you're insulting both animators and cinematographers by saying it is. Unless we're talking stop motion.

And animation is not cinematography, you're insulting both animators and cinematographers by saying it is. Unless we're talking stop motion.

I don't care much about the director category, and none of my nominations are going to make the director shortlist but not the best film shortlist (since one is a top 5 and one is a top 10), so I have nothing to lose. I'd rather promote some anime even if I know they won't make the shortlist.

What's your definition of cinematography? Many types of animation involve cameras, so it could possibly be considered cinematography. I wasn't thinking about the definition when I posted my nominations. I was judging visuals based on the end result, rather than how it was made. I don't see how it insults anyone.

[Kasparius]

Cinematography is the art of lighting and framing with a camera to capture something on the moment.

[Rad82]

Cinematography is the art of lighting and framing with a camera to capture something on the moment.

While true, I also happen to picture it as the overall magic of the camera at work, and how it makes me feel awed or inspired in various ways. For example when on pivotal moments of a film clever zoom-ins and/or zoom-outs either on people who are having a conversation or on beautiful scenery, manage to "capture" the audience, improve overall atmosphere and/or intensify emotions.

This more or less can happen in any kind of film, animation or not. It's something that can elevate any kind of film in my eyes if it's done well.

In the end it also depends on the animation style though. Some animation styles don't really support it that much.

[Kasparius]

Again, the skills required for animation and cinematography are different. Animation are not nominated for best cinematography for a reason.

You guys need to go to an animation film department and a film set and you will understand why this is simply not the same art. Or at least watch a doc.

Mjf is robbing actual cinematographers of a nod.

Kas & sushant, Away from Her is from 2006 (though it was eligible for the 2007 Oscars), so it's ineligible for this poll.

Also, sushant, did you realize your ballot is almost exactly the same as Kas's? I assume you copied his ballot for the format, but did you forget to change your choices too?
