Best animated movie of all time.

[SheepFactory]

well deserved , Jungle book has some phenomenal animation in it that is still not bested to this day imo.

[Morganism]

Kind of interesting to see Watership Down having second best song with so many disney movies to compete against. I didn't realize that enough people even knew about that movie to vote for it.

Personally, I think I would have given the Southpark Movie best song.

[athosghost]

Anything with Louis Prima gets my vote:thumbsup:

[JohnD]

Of course Jungle Book has some of the best animation in it. Lord and King "Don Bluth" worked on it when he was still with Disney. All hail.:buttrock:

I'll second that. The tiger is incredible.

[unclebob]

Heavy Metal is a classic animation, just ya gotta see it stoned for it to make sense. ;-)

Not that I've ever done anything like that, or ummm how about I didn't inhale, yeah yeah thats it. hehehe

I liked Reboot too, if that would be in the animation category.

[twquick]

"Heavy Metal" is way cool. "The Secret of Nimh" is one my favorites. I just love the name Nicdodemus. Is that a Don Bluth one?

[T4D]

That's BullC#*p
I have kids and My kids walk out on Disney films
quickier then you can say "here's a stick go play with it "

that site/Paper would have to be owned by Disney would it !!!!!

come ON !!!

how many of you get all excited when a animated movie goes into a song ???
I Don't and my kids feel the same way
Music is a old way to fill up space yet some how it won the Best Animated movie !!! would you sit down and watch it again ???

we've had some amazing animated movies over the last few years Shrek, toystory, Iceage and the rest
yet some how Disney who has no movies in producion AT ALL !!
won a prize ??

And No 3D animated movies got in, except a token Tom Hanks prize
No WAY
Buzz lightyear kicks Mickey Mouse :argh:
for pure character animation skills Cid from Iceage would have to be up there

And if you looking for music in a animated movie
What about Eddie Murphy's version of Big Butts !!
in Shrek :buttrock: now that's a Song for a animated movie

next Disney will give themself a prize for Treasure planet being the best Science Fiction Animated movie of all time :curious:

seeing Disney lost all they talent due to Market people making artist decisions so now the same marketing have to try and make money from the back catalog :sad:

[staticneuron]

I personally thought Lion King was the best.

Yep . Brisby and the Secret of Nimh was a film by Don Bluth. And, yeah, it was great.

[eliseu gouveia]

What, no love for Studio Ghibli´s Whispers of the Heart (Mimi O Sumaseba)?:surprised

[fasteez]

hmm ghiblis animated films are some of the best on earth! mononoke hime, laputa, porco rosso, chihiro ... all have so much beautifull animation/story/landscape/ideas lol so many great ideas in them!

but i dont dislike disney and i think 101 dalmatians has a very good animation too , just look the way humans "touch" animals its really nice.

[Morganism]

Ghiblis films are beautifully designed and written, and they are some of my favorite films, but they really can't compete with old Disney movies for pure animation.

I second that , 101 dalmations is my all time favorite disney anim.

[KayosIII]

I wonder how "The Yellow Submarine" rates :)

[mamurphy]

I'll give yellow submarine a big #1 on my list. :thumbsup:

Best music ever in an animated film!!!

[CENOBITE]

Well, one of the few animated films I own is Akira. That was a good one as well.

[mamurphy]

I own Akira as well. While it does not fall under the same "Family Friendly" category as these others, it still is a masterpiece.

..."Kanedaaaa! I feel her pain inside of meeee!!!" *pop*
-Tatsuo

[KayosIII]

I have only seen the ending of Akira - I would like to see how it starts out.

Definately up there for storyline though.

i think it's time for u to watch it again mate... it's kaneda from "kane" (gold) and "da" (field).

my favorite disney would be the old anthropomorphic robin hood.

[Nikko]

No one has mentioned Iron Giant, which was a fantastic, underrated movie, much more deserving of a sequel than a lot of these Disney animated "classics." The sequel to Jungle Book was just plain disappointing.

I also liked Akira, Spirited Away(and ANYthing by Ghibli), Starchaser: the Legend of Orin, and a whole bunch of other movies I would deem "classics." Trying to single any one as the best of all time is ridiculous. Since it's all relative to personal opinion, my own favorite changes all the time. Some of these movies don't seem quite as good years later when you see them again, but many age very well.

[Nicodemus]

I am surprised that Jungle Book won but happy that it did. It is one of my favorite animated movies.

Keeping in mind of course that this was a blockbuster pole it makes sense that alot of the movies we might like (Akira, Spirited Away) would not have won. Despite the excellence of these films they are not nearly as popular with the general (video rental) watching public.

NIKKO....Iron Giant has got to be one of the most underated animated moives I have ever seen. Warner Brothers really dropped the ball when it came to promoting that movie.

~L~

PS...TWQUICK...., As you can see I agree with you on the loving the name.LOL

[twquick]

:buttrock: NICODEMUS:buttrock:

[Agent D]

They should have narrowed that down to "Best animated kids movie with song". :hmm:

The best (and only watchable IMO) "musical" I can think of is The Nightmare Before Christmas. And I can think of a lot of better animated movies, for children or otherwise besides Jungle Book.

[thethule]

T4D, your kids walk out of Disney films? Riiiiiiiiiiight..... :rolleyes:
That means they are either aged 2 (need diaper changing) or above 11 ("this is LAME!").
As for The Sun, it's not owned by Disney.
As for me, I'm happy enough with the results there, The Jungle Book was absolutely fantastic, with the best songs in it. I would also add the Lion King in there and personally I preferred Toy Story 2 to number 1. But only in the way that I prefer coke to pepsi (i.e. minimal). having 2 Buzz Lightyears was a stroke of genius.


"was I really that deluded?"

Nicodemus as cool. But Jenner was a badass.

[Joe2003]

Dude, Disney's animated classics absolutely wipe the floor with those movies. Shrek has an average story and average characters at best. Same with Ice Age. Toy Story is a much better film than those two, but even it doesn't equal the great Disney animated films of old. And I hate to tell you this, but both Shrek and Toy Story have songs in them, so there's another argument shot down.

Shrek and Ice Age wouldn't even make the Top 20 animated films of all times.

[Supervlieg]

yeah I agree Iron Giant is underrated, but it was made with lots of help by computers. The disney animated movies of way back were the real deal. No fancy stuff, just hardcore pencilling. You've gotta admire that.

I also think akira should be up there. But perhaps the story isn't as widely appealling as the jungle book.

Actually, they had help too. They did everything from rotoscoping filmed actors to tracing over stop-motion-animated 3d mockups of vehicle. In a more general sense, what they did back in the day was not all that different than what is done now, we just have fancier tools.

My kids are 3 girl 7 boy and 13 girl

I have a huge collection of animated movies
the kids get some plus out of me being a animator
they most played movies are something like this

1/ Iron Giant BY Far the most played movie i my house ( know it now word for word :banghead:
2/ Toystory 1 & 2 ( yes both have a song but only one )
3/ Spirited away (I got the Jap version first and they still watched it)
4/ Iceage ( my personal fav Cid is the coolest )
5/ LiLo and Stitch ( yes a Disney Movie I know but it's a good one
6/ Dragon Ball Z ( I got em all and some days it seems i live with Goku
7/ Jimmy Neutron ( it's good to see LW going off )
8/ Shrek ( yes the story isn't the greatest but it's watched alot)
9/ Simpsons collection ( any got em all and if they weren't on TV enought )
10/ Emperors New Groove ( this just keeps getting play and i have no idea why it's a Disney movie i know but i still laugh at some of the jokes
and Dumbo would be number 11 but it was in the cycle for only afew weeks

also afew that have shock me that really don't get played
are the rest of the Pixar movies buglife, finding nemo, monsters etc they really don't get put on at all :shrug:

Now you Disney Freaks can say all you want but this is what gets played by my kids in My House
and in some ways i can see why the disney movies are still in mint condition. and yes i have the jungle book

My dates might be a bit scrambled, but I think Warner Bros dropped their money into promoting Wild Wild West instead of Iron Giant.
Bad move!


Iron Giant is my favorite animated movie I've ever seen. And I've seen alot!

I really loved the jungle book too, so I'm not too upset with the verdict!

[SheepFactory]

Aladdin should have won something too!

Good point, didnt know that. Still cool though.

I agree don bluth was an animation genious

[psyop63b]

Speaking of Don Bluth, I would've cast my vote for Anastasia. SO it has musical parts, they drive the story. It's a good way of throwing a lot of info at you quickly. I hated that dog they threw in there though (mostly to keep the kids amused I wager), but overall I thought the story was strong and the art was beautiful.

Too bad Titan AE did so badly, otherwise we'd probably be seeing more from Fox animation. Maybe they should've tried a Dragon's Lair or Space Ace movie first. ;)
