Academy Awards: 2013 Best Animated Short Films

While Best Picture, Best Actor and Best Actress will get all the attention on tonight's Academy Awards celebration on ABC, one category I always look forward to, is best animation short.

Maybe it's because I'm a Disney freak or my roommate in college, was a great animator, but this overlooked category is always fun to watch.

Here are this year's nominees for Best Animated Short:

Short Film – Animated:

"Adam and Dog"

"Fresh Guacamole"

"Head over Heels"

"Maggie Simpson in The Longest Daycare"

"Paperman"

What's that, you didn't see any of them?  I'm not surprised.  Animated shorts, don't get a lot of attention, but they are certainly fun to watch.
