Guest C.H.U.D. Posted August 17, 2002 Report Posted August 17, 2002 I'm sure I missed some great titles, and I didn't list any of the current CGI animated titles like Monsters, Inc. or Ice Age. I did add Titan A.E. because it combined CGI and hand drawn animation. I'm really only looking for favourites in non-Disney, traditionally animated films. My pick? The Iron Giant.
Guest MrRant Posted August 17, 2002 Report Posted August 17, 2002 Nihm... I'm suprised you didn't include the animated Lord of The Rings/Hobbit trilogy.
Guest shlidgn90 Posted August 17, 2002 Report Posted August 17, 2002 watership down rule. did you know that the crazy bird that always looking for big water is voiced by "uncle phil" from the fresh prince of bel air show?
Guest El Satanico Posted August 17, 2002 Report Posted August 17, 2002 Damn i'm torn. I liked The Iron Giant alot and it's the best childrens movie to come out in a long time. However i also like Heavy Metal alot.
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Posted August 17, 2002 Report Posted August 17, 2002 Alas, I'm of the few people that prefered Heavy Metal 2000 (AKA Heavy Metal: FAKK 2) over the original...meh... I picked The Secret Of Nimh. Any animated kids movie that can be that dark and violent and yet still for kids gets my vote. Just a question: why no An American Tail or its superior sequel, An American Tail: Fievel Goes West? It's a Universal Studios animated film, and it's cute for the kids with adult undertones (the whores in Fievel Goes West, for example).
Guest C.H.U.D. Posted August 17, 2002 Report Posted August 17, 2002 I haven't seen either American Tail films. Same goes with the animated Lord of the Rings/Hobbit/Return of the King. My bad.
Guest J*ingus Posted August 17, 2002 Report Posted August 17, 2002 I've only seen Heavy Metal out of that list, which although it's a guilty pleasure of mine I can't really recommend it with a clear conscience due to the rather extreme misogyny in the flick. So I'd go with either Princess Mononoke (yep, hand-drawn) or Fritz the Cat.
Guest areacode212 Posted August 18, 2002 Report Posted August 18, 2002 I haven't seen Princess Mononoke yet...I'll get around to popping in the DVD someday. But for now, I'll go with Watership Down, which scared the hell out of me as a kid. The book is good, too.
Guest Karnage Posted August 18, 2002 Report Posted August 18, 2002 South Park: Bigger, Longer, Uncut is my favourite North American animated film. Let's not get started on animé.
Guest evenflowDDT Posted August 18, 2002 Report Posted August 18, 2002 Out of all those listed, definitely The Iron Giant. I haven't seen Secret of Nimh or either of the American Tale movies in years though...
Guest JaKyL25 Posted August 19, 2002 Report Posted August 19, 2002 If the list is excluding anime, my pick is The Iron Giant, which is my favorite animated movie PERIOD outside of Akira. South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut was a pretty glaring omission though. Damn fine movie.
Guest TheRockIsTheEuropeanChampion Posted August 19, 2002 Report Posted August 19, 2002 What about "The Last Unicorn"? I loved that one when I was a little kid... I voted for "Heavy Metal", personally.
Guest AlwaysPissedOff Posted August 19, 2002 Report Posted August 19, 2002 Wow... there's a BUNCH of missing stuff on here. Transformers, G.I. Joe, He-Man, Batman, Batman Beyond, Ferngully: The Last Rainforest... Excluding anime and picking from the list, however, I'd pick Secret of NIMH. That movie scared the fucking shit out of me when I was little.
Guest C.H.U.D. Posted August 19, 2002 Report Posted August 19, 2002 Damn, I missed out on more than I though (like South Park). My bad. Maybe I will do a SUPER, DUPER poll later.
Guest Razor Roman Posted August 19, 2002 Report Posted August 19, 2002 Definately the Iron Giant wins out of this list. Brad Bird is a genius. But An American Tale was also a wonderful movie. (I dare you not to choke up when Fivel sings "Somewhere out there") And South Park is probably the funniest animated movie ever.
Guest J*ingus Posted August 19, 2002 Report Posted August 19, 2002 South Park wasn't hand-drawn. They've used computers to make the animation from the second season onward.
