It could make people think in wrong about other ethnic groups. And It could be also very dangerous. The Academy awards has been underestimating the value of animations. Little Mermaid , Toy Story , Prince of Egypt , Lion King and the Beauty and the Beast are still some memorable movies. Even though Walt Disney got more than 20 Oscar trophies, in many competition including special award, he never had any of best film and best director awards.
Some good animations make more benefit than regular motion pictures do.
There is no reason that animations are underestimated. Going a movie theater becomes the part of the normal life. We have to choose movie with our own standard, but we are not good at that. At least the Academy Awards can be the guide for normal people who want to watch a good movie. Movies from Hollywood are loved by all over the world.
