Favorite Animated Movies

Post by Rau Le Creuset »

Hey guys, just wanted to talk about everyones favorite animated movies! What are your favorites? why? Animated movies seem to be a favorite among my family considering I live with a younger brother and even younger cousin. Animateed movies can be just as heart wrenching and exiting as live action movies as long as they are done right.. im going to list my top 3 since I can't choose a single favourite:

1. Batman: The mask of the Phantasm

Im a batman kid... it's true. When I was old enough to grasp what was going on on the television me and my father would watch Batman: the animated series featuring kevin connoroy as batman and Mark Hamill as the joker (yes luke skywalker is the joker!). This movie features the same animation and voices as the t.v series and may actually be the truest adaptation to batman there ever will be. this movie is exiting, mysterious, and at some points.. very sad.

2. The Secret of Nimh

Although many animated movies revolve around talking animals this one is different. it's story is dark, the drawings are beautiful, and its one of those times that the movie exceeds the book it was created from. this film was in theatres 13 years before I was born and it still captures what the best animated films today do! something must be said for hand drawn animation.

3. Surfs Up

Penguins surfing to chill music teaching kids about winning and sore losers.. what more could one want out of an animated movie.. I think this one is very underrated



So yeah.. what about you guys im interested to know :wink:

Probably.

Heavy Metal was released in '81. Wizards was even earlier, being released in '77.

The catholic church is the largest pro-pedophillia group in the world, and every member of it is guilty of supporting the rape of children, the ensuing protection of the rapists, and the continuing suffering of the victims.

Rattatouille - for the food stuff

Animal Farm - old but WOW!

Fantasia - for the music

The Jungle book - for King Louis.

Vincent - Tim Burtons beautiful short [see it on U-tube] about Vincent Malloy, the boy who thinks he's Vincent Price, a poem script narrated by Vincent Price himself - who else!
President of Peace? You fucking idiots!

But hey, who am I to judge? I like the Rankin/Bass version of the Hobbit and The Return of the King.

I also liked their version of The Wind in the Willows.

Also:When the Wind Blows, The Snowman, The Adventures of Mark Twain, The Land Before Time,

And of course, The Emperor's New Groove is boss.

That version of the hobbit was a big part of my childhood. I actually like it more than peter Jackson's hobbit thus far.

That's just the trailer; you really should see the whole move. Animated? Yes. For kids? Not at all. Anyway...the trailer seems incoherent because you have to remember when the movie was released--1977. The world was different back then, as you possibly recall (I do, so I am not calling you "old").

The Brave Little Toaster - oh my gawd, this is so much more disturbing as an adult.

Miyazaki - 'nuff said.
