Must Watch: Brad Bird's Annie Award Acceptance Speeh

Videos Brad Bird about 15 years agoby Joey Paur

The Annie Awards were presented over the weekend, and Brad Bird was awarded the Windsor McCay Award for career achievement along with Eric Goldberg and Matt Groening. Bird wasn't able to be at the awards because he's off shooting Mission Impossible 4. So, he taped his acceptance speech which highlights the animated films he's worked on over the years such as The Simpsons, The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Ratatouille and more.

Things take a interesting turn for the worse near the end of the video though. Check out the video below and make sure to watch it all they way through. But if you're impatient, go ahead and skip to the 4:30 mark. After you watch it tell us what you think.

How awesome was that! As I was sitting here watching it I was like, "what in the hell Bird?! Are you serious!?" It ended up being very funny though.

Thanks to GT reader Billy F for the tip!
