London, November 12 (ANI): The next year's Academy Awards has received 20 entries for best-animated feature category - the maximum ever.

The last time Oscars saw five nominations in 2002, reports the Telegraph.

 

Some of the films, which have made the cut, are 'Up', 'Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs' and 'Monsters vs. Aliens.'
