It’s less about who invented the facial expression and more how often it appears in advertisements and movie cover art. Dreamworks consistently uses the same smirk because they’re of the belief that it gives their characters a mischievous image.
Dreamworks didn’t invent the “3/4 front view smiling/smirking at the camera” face any more than Disney invented the “3/4 front view open-mouth smiling while looking at the Main Character at a sharp angle” face; they just popularized it. I never have understood why they got slapped with a meme over it while Disney gets away snot free with that wretched “Flounder and Sebastian smilin’ side-eyed at Ariel” bullshit.
American films
The Academy Awards are for films released in America; country of origin is irrelevant, if it was in American theaters it’s eligible.

Maybe it didn’t hit locally for you until ’14, but it was released in the U.S. on November 8th, 2013.
It’s the opposite for me. I know some Americans who wouldn’t want their god-like F6F Hellcats, F4U Corsairs, or P-38 Lightnings going down in flames from the guns of a Zero on the big screen.
Hmmm…perhapes I was misinformed. TO THE GOOGLE MOBILE!
One Adam West Batman transition latter…
“The Academy Awards, commonly known as The Oscars, is an annual American awards ceremony honoring achievements in the film industry.”
Apparently it’s televised in 200+ countries, but I don’t see anything that says it is an international award. All I see is “American.” Can I get some confirmation on this?
Americans would think, “What is an A6M2 Zero?”
As an American, folks here know little to nothing about history. They wouldn’t know or care for that matter.
With that aside, the Oscars are for American films. It wouldn’t matter either way.
Well anyone who thinks Spirited Away isn’t a masterpiece is a goddamn moron.
say that again
The Oscars are for American films.
Well first off, The Wind Rises was a badass movie, but it was released in 2014. The awards was for movies of 2013. Second, because it focuses on a fictional biography of the man who created one of the deadliest planes(A6M2 Zero) of the Pacific War, it’s obvious what Americans would think of that…
…… It was? And Rebellion wasn’t?
well… that explain why this piece of shit was nominated on 2004
Then again, the oscars are a joke in general.
Ernest et Celestine or AT LEAST The Wind Rises should have won ahead of this movie.
I am talking about time spent in the fandom, discussing about the show, watching fan art and reading fanfic.
Oh… OH!
Shit, I’m dumb. That isn’t quite what I meant by “movies replacing TV”, but I do see your point.
Ah.
I don’t quite see how that connects to my point though…
I don’t watch Futurama, so please explain your meaning.
How the hell can a Movie “replace” a TV show?
A movie is a self-contained visual short story. Barring pre-planed multiparters, you see the movie once, and you already have the whole story. It’s done.
TV serials are continuously updating narrative you need to keep up on, It ain’t done till the last episode.
They’re completely different beasts!
