Oscar Shorts

It's hard to care for the Best Animated Short Oscar nominees when barely anybody has access to them. This year, for the first time, I was able to watch them before the Academy Awards and mostly they are a hoot. Funny enough, the Oscar winner, "La Maison en Petits Cubes", is the one downer. My favorite is a kinetic riot that feels like a Michael Bay flick concentrated in two minutes. The stars are two octopi in love, and they are willing to go REALLY far for each other.
