I’m still not over The Lego Movie’s Oscar snub

More than a decade later, I still remember how disappointed I was when the nominees for Best Animated Feature Film were announced for the 87th Academy Awards. The nominated films were Big Hero 6, The Boxtrolls, How to Train Your Dragon 2, Song of the Sea and The Tale of the Princess Kaguya. They were all fine movies, but missing from the list was the funniest, sharpest, most visually innovative animated film from 2014. Now, that very same movie is facing yet another indignity (getting the boot from Netflix’s streaming library), making now the best time to watch (or rewatch) this modern animated masterpiece.
