If animals were the stars...

The people at MTV created some pawfectly perfect movie posters of this year's Academy Award-nominated movies complete with critters in the lead roles... I couldn't resist sharing! Who doesn't love a blue-eyed kitty cat?

Academy Award-Nominated Film... With Animals

Posted 1/16/13 10:30 am EST by MTV Movies Team in Humor

This is a great time of the year for the movies. The Oscar nominations are out and most new films aren't that great, so you actually have time to go back and watch the "important" ones from the previous year.

Last year had some great pieces of cinema, but don't you think they were all missing something?

They were missing more animals. Every movie from the past year didn't have enough wild beasts as main characters. Thankfully, the folks over at Next Movie have fixed this for us.
