In early 2010 The Academy Of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences will again award one animated film the best picture of the year. The category has only existed since 2001 and is awarded only if there are at least eight animated feature films released in that year. In past years this competition has been dominated by one film company, Pixar. Will 2010 be the same? Lets look at this years main contenders for Best Animated Film.

Why not start with Pixar. In the last years their films have dominated this category and there have been rumblings that some of their films should in fact compete with life action films for Best Picture of the year. Their films are that good. Winners in the past few years have included The Incredibles, Finding Nemo and Wall-E.
