Does anyone have any recommendations for underrated animated films that are 80-100 minutes long and will cure depression?

Do the clothes that Muppets wear count as Art Direction or Costumes?

What examples can you think of where actors should’ve been nominated twice in the same category for separate films at the Oscars but couldn’t because the rules didn’t allow it?
English
@itsmearabrady It would make more sense to give it to the producers, but it’s still an improvement over having to say that the entirety of Norway won an Oscar last year.

So… is that not just Best Director?

The Oscar for Best International Feature will no longer be awarded to a country or region. Instead, it will be presented to the film’s director.

@PetreRaleigh U-Turn rules! Spectacular piece of ‘90s drama trash.

@TomHouseman Not underrated I guess but I loved Hoppers lol. Also watched Ghost Cat Anzu a few months ago, which was fun

@AdamOPrice “If Nabokov wrote Lolita today so many publishers would reject it that it would have to be published as pornography!”
English
"If an author tried this in Woke 2026" hypotheticals are so fucking embarrassing and silly. If Nabokov was in an MFA program (lol), and he submitted Lolita for his thesis, people would be flabbergasted by it, same as they were back then

repo getting a rerelease is so funny considering I attempted to rent it once and they just told me to take it and not bring it back
