Okay, Turning Red will be Oscar eligible. Not because the Academy is re-reextending the "streaming movies count during the pandemic" rule, but because Disney's giving it a week long run in one LA theater, which is the bare minimum requirement as it otherwise releases straight Disney+. Which, I mean, duh. I should have seen that coming; Disney did that with a lot of straight to DVD DisneyToons features, why not with a Pixar movie that might actually get nominated for something?
