Best Animated Feature Predictions

Collin Whitchurch: A year ago my favorite bet of the Academy Awards was in the Best Animated Film category. I called an upset in this category and it came through, as The Boy and the Heron took down Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse.

My favorite bet this year is once against Best Animated Feature, but this time it’s on the favorite.

There’s been some momentum for Flow, a fascinating film without any dialogue that’s also nominated in the Best International Film category, but the precursors have strongly aligned with the favorite, The Wild Robot, which additionally is widely available enough to likely have been digested by a large majority of Academy voters.

I think at -250, The Wild Robot remains undervalued. Based on all the data and models and precursors, it should be closer to -900 for this award.

Bet: The Wild Robot -250 at FanDuel
