Soul is a "lock" to win Best Animated Feature Film but requires a $250 bet to win $10 (the $250 will be refunded and the $10 would be considered a profit).

Soul follows a middle school music teacher named Joe Gardner, who is attempting to reunite his soul and with his body after they are accidentally detached, just before his big break as a jazz musician. Soul is the first Pixar film to feature an African-American protagonist.

Rot Academy Awards - Best Animated Feature Film Moneyline
1300 Soul     -2500
1301 Wolfwalkers     +750
1302 Onward     +1800
1303 Over the Moon     +2500
1304 A Shaun and Sheep Movie: Farmageddon     +3300

If Anything Happens I Love You is a more modest favorite that requires a $27.50 risk to win $10 (once again, that $27.50 is refunded just as long as the bet is a winner).

This one is NOT a "lock", however.  Opera is more of a value pick as you would bet $10 to win $42.50.

If Anything Happens I Love You centers around two grieving parents as they struggle to confront the death of their daughter, who was killed in a school shooting.

Opera is a South Korean/American animated short film.  It looks at humanity (religion, class struggle, racism, war and terrorism) on a loop at a massive scale.
