 There was an article on the animation oscars in the local paper today. They specifically mentioned Spirited Away and the rule that allows it.

I'm looking forward to anything else Miyazaki puts to celluloid.

 As according to the Academy Award Rules by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, "Spirited Away" qualifies for this year. Here are the main rules an animated film must encompass to qualify:

An animated feature film is defined as a motion picture of at least 70 minutes in running time and where a significant number of the major characters in the film are animated, and animation figures in no less than 75% of the picture's running time.

The required Los Angeles County qualifying run must open between January 1, 2002 and midnight of December 31, 2002.

All eligible motion pictures, unless otherwise noted (see Paragraph 9 below), must be:

a) feature length (defined as over 40 minutes),
b) publicly exhibited by means of 35mm or 70mm film or non-video tape digital process,
c) for paid admission in a commercial motion picture theater in Los Angeles County,
d) for a run of at least seven consecutive days,
e) advertised and exploited during its Los Angeles run in a manner considered normal and customary to the industry, and
f) within the awards year deadlines specified in Rule Three.

The film should qualify and Miyazaki should win.

 I'm not sure Spirited Away would be eligible for an Oscar considering it's original Japanese release was July 20, 2001.
