TZWikiProject Oscars

Primary goal: put together reasonably-sized* articles on the last three nominees for the Best Animated Feature Oscar.
Secondary goals: put together articles on the studios and directors behind those films, and provide the same coverage of the recent Best Animated Short nominees.
Long-term goal: do the same for all the films that have won the two Oscars in the past, along with their directors and studios.

*I've taken it as a rule of thumb that a good short-term goal for any article is to come up with something with roughly as much (or better still more) information as its counterpart on mainstream Wiki. That's when I consider an article truly "done".

Right now these articles need to be done: Bolt, Kung Fu Panda, Wall-E. The status for each:

BOLT
Done:

Plot
Production
Soundtrack
Tie-ins
Release
Reception
Could be improved:
Introduction
Needs:
Characters
Crew

KUNG FU PANDA
Done!

WALL-E
Done:
Plot synopsis
Production history - storyline
Production history - production design
Production history - character designs & animation
Production history - music
Reception - main
Could be improved:
Introduction
Characters
Needs:
Crew
Production history - sound design
Release
Reception - awards
Could also be added:
Tie-ins
Themes/inspirations

Anyone want to handle WALL-E?

I haven't seen the film yet, and I just know that if I do enough research into it the ending's going to get spoiled somewhere down the line (and I've heard it's a doozy).

Bolt and Kung Fu Panda are nearing completion, so once WALL-E's out the door that'll be the first part of this project done.

I'll take on Wall-E. I know it well, and getting good info on it won't be to hard. I'll try having an article up that is at "done" quality by Friday or Saturday.

One down, two to go. Well, until the next batch of Oscar noms is announced, anyway.

My copy of Wall-E is in the post...
