Nominated for Best Animated Feature This is the last nomination in the Animated Feature category and also the last free* nominee.
*Free as in on a service I already pay for, versus to rent.
Shaun (Justin Fletcher) is just a sheep looking for a little bit of fun and circumventing the overprotective dog (John Sparkes), when he discovers a lost alien (Amalia Vitale) hiding in the barn. Lu-La has lost her ship near the local pizza place and needs Shaun to help her navigate back to it. But her UFO has sparked a lot of interest from a shadowy government agent (Kate Harbour) who wants to capture Lu-La and her ship. It is up to Shaun and the flock to get Lu-La home safely.
This is a very cute movie and if you liked previous Aardman stop-motion films, this will be another winner. There are a ton of sci-fi references for all ages, from the obvious (Alien) to the obscure (Mac & Me). A fun, easy watch for the whole family.
It is 1000% not going to win. I'll try and do a post for predictions later today, if I can, but no way does this win. Very cute, though, and streaming on Netflix.
