Among those being given the awards are Scott Z. Burns (writer of The Bourne Ultimatum and The Informant!) and Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders, co-directors of How to Train Your Dragon and Lilo & Stitch, who will receive the Texas Avery Animation Award so named for the North Dallas High School immortal. (Last year's recipient was Up's Pete Docter, The Nicest Man Who Ever Lived.) Also receiving a nod will be the late Horton Foote, currently being feted 'round town during the till-May celebration of his work.
On the other side you'll find the rundown of new titles added to the schedule -- among them the Morgan Freeman-narrated nature doc from Warners called Born to Be Wild.
