I'm surprised The Adventures of Tintin didn't earn a nod for animated feature, considering all the awards it's already won. The best nomination: Man or Muppet for Original Song from The Muppets.

If Viola Davis and Octavia Spencer don't win in their respective categories, a crime will have happened.
