The 84th Annual Academy Awards2012

Himself - Winner:
Best Animated Film: Thank you so much. This is crazy. Someone asked me if this film was for kids and, I don't know, but it was certainly created by a bunch of grownups acting like children, and we just had the best time. I want to thank the real-world chameleon, Mr. Johnny Depp, and the entire cast for coming out and playing. To the artists, Crash McCreery, Jim Byrkit, Hal Hickel, Tim Alexander, John Knoll, everybody at Blind Wink and ILM who put so much passion into every frame. And to the early believers, John Logan, Graham King, Brad Grey, and everyone at Paramount who really let us try something different. And to my beautiful wife and my family, who inspire me every day with their smiles and laughter. It doesn't get any better than this. Thank you.
