The Academy Award-winning animated short this year, a fantasy about books, includes a notable cameo appearance from a Hetzel edition of Autour de la Lune. It's unidentified in the film itself, but some pages from Chapter XIII are featured, and once you can even glimpse the name "Barbicane."

What with the restored Voyage dans la luneat Cannes, Martin Scorsese's celebrated Melies tribute Hugo, and that peculiar modern riff on Mysterious Island in theaters on top of that, it's been a rather good year for Verne at the movies...
