Get Your 'Toon On with These Oscar Noms
French Roast
Cartoon Brew has thoughtfully gathered links from around the Web for some of the Oscar-nominated animated shorts. Over at its official website, you can check out French Roast, a funny Gallic short about a fellow at a café with a financial and moral dilemma. Granny O’Grimm’s Sleeping Beauty is a cool little mixed media short about a morbid, slightly batty grandmother who has a rather unique version of "Sleeping Beauty" to share with her terrified grandchild. (Granny also has a special Oscar message to share.) The Lady and the Reaper is a humorous take on the grim reaper and an old lady caught in a tug-of-war between life and death—literally. Logorama, which is about a logo-laden land where Ronald McDonald is on the run from Michelin Men police, is available for viewing on its official website. Take a look and let us know who you think should take home an Oscar for their efforts!
Unfortunately, it looks like Wallace and Gromit: A Matter of Loaf and Death is no longer online, but you can get more info on the official website.
