ANNIE AWARDS DOMINATED BY FROZEN


Since Frozen started banking boatloads of cash at the box office, it has swiftly overtaken The Wind Rises as the Oscar frontrunner for Best Animated Feature. The Annie Awards have never served as the best predictors for that award, but five awards here for Frozen confirms that film's status as the race leader. Happy to see The Wind Rises win a major award too.
