2. Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (1984)
1. My Neighbor Totoro (1988)
How did they do? Utena didn't perform very well indeed (2nd last). PMMM was third last, Nausicaa was below the average (don't know exactly where), the Garden of Words was also below the average in the shorts HoF. though my nomination, Alexander Petrov's short film The Old Man and the Sea (1999) was above average, being perhaps the only animation above average. Though Mary and Max (2009) (Godoggo) was above average as well I guess. Interestingly, the only animations above the average were Western. Though I would await until the Sci Fi HoF closes down as well because Paprika is very accessible for western movie fans. Still given the high number of animations nominated, their performance has been really bad in light also of their status among the animation community, one would expect at least one of those to make a run for winning. :) Though this only reflects the fact that fans of movies don't need and generally are not fans of animation. Winning movies were the typical categry, live action dramas, which win the Oscars as well. Though a Science fiction short won the shorts HoF and a horror won the first.
I am thinking about nominating number 11 for a HoF at some point as well, 36 also looks interesting, though a bit too audacious one.
