It’s incredible that Astro Boy was not included in the list, when abysmal tripe like Planet 51, the latest Ice Age installment and the Chipmunks got a nod. :0 Astro has much more to commend it when it comes to animation, story, voice acting, musical score…one wonders by what criteria the nominees were chosen. Box office? But Coraline underperformed and Fox is a box-office flop. Really, there is no excuse. The Globes have lost their luster.
