Hmm... This film supposedly won the Academy Award for Documentary Short subject. however, it does not sound like a documentary... Any thoughts? I'm not familiar with the film at all, so... Porlob 21:31, 6 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

No, it's not really a documentary at all... though it is quite good at showing aspects of how humans act. I'm not sure how it won the award. Esn 11:46, 2 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure if the 'derivatives' section should be included. The reference that Tony vs Paul drew its inspiration from 'Neighbors' links only to the YouTube video- not to any information about the film's connection to McLaren's. While certainly the film makes use of a pixilation fight, it's a stretch to say it's 'similar' (for instance, 'Tony vs Paul' has much more animation, and doesn't convey such a specific social message) Jonelvisamerica 12:06, 9 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Removed documentary task force tag

[edit]

This is a strange case. Even though it won the best short documentary Oscar the Academy admits -- it has no choice but to -- that this is one of a number of films that won Oscars in the wrong category. This is quite simply not a non-fiction film at all: it's a stop-action short about 2 guys fighting to the death over an animated flower. So while it needs to remain in the appropriate Oscar winners category, it should not be counted as a documentary film for the purposes of the Documentary films task force. thanks, Shawn in Montreal (talk) 22:00, 19 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
