The Anthropomorphic Literature and Arts Association, which administers the annual Ursa Major Awards, has opened the 2011 Anthropomorphic Reading List.
All fans are invited to recommend what they feel are worthwhile anthropomorphic works in ten categories (motion pictures, dramatic short films or broadcasts, novels, short fiction, other literary works, graphic stories, comic strips, magazines, published illustrations, and games) first published during 2011. This Recommended List is often used by fans to nominate in the next year's Ursa Major Awards.

Thanks, it will come in handy!
Or not...
Avatar getting more votes than Fantastic Mr. Fox?!
Where is Spanish Inquisition when you actually need it?....
I'm glad I'm not the only one still ranting about that.
This should be useful...
I actually really disliked the Fantastic Mr. Fox movie. But then again, i did have rather high expectations as I listened to the tape until it broke.
but then again... i didn't like avatar that much either
Well, FMF is a bit... on the experimental side, an "alternative film" for family viewing. A bit like Rumble Fish, in that some events happen, but it is never explicitly explained why (you have to guess for yourself).
The book has the traditional story structure, while the film is something completely different. I never read the book, and also expected the film to be a "tewwible Americanization", a Shrek clone. But I was pleasantly surprised the film turned out to be... what it was.
And Avatar is simply "Dancing With The Wolves", but with no real characters and IN SPACE!!!11111one111
