Notes

Six out of 11 PGA-winning animated films won the coveted Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.
Two PGA-winning animated films were not nominated in Academy Award for Best Animated Feature: The Adventures of Tintin (2011) and The Lego Movie (2014). The Adventures of Tintin was not nominated as it is ineligible by utilizing motion capture as its technique; the Academy rules do not consider motion capture as an animation technique.^[1]
Only in the year 2008 that the nominees and eventual winner matched correctly.
