best animated movies

[Lodoss War Fan]

Since there was a thread for bad animated movies, I thought of making one for the best animated flicks.
What's your picks for the best animated movies?

Mines are The Record of lodoss war
The Secret of NIMH

[Danielle]

I will be posting many times, since I can't think of all of them now:

Rover Dangerfield
Monster's Inc.
Tiny Toon Adventures: My Summer Vaction

I'll come up with more, don't worry. :D

[Squall]

Hey,

What about Transformers: The Movie??? That movie is awesome! I will always remember it as THE movie that got me into both sci-fi, superheroes, and cartoons.

G.I. Joe: The Movie isn't as good, but it's still worth putting on the list, in my opinion, since Sunbow Productions and Toei Animation made both cartoon movies. (I guess you could think of them as "sister" movies.)

I also like Mask of the Phantasm, World's Finest, Return of the Joker, and Secret Origins. (World's Finest, Secret Origins, and Return of the Joker (uncut!) are supposed to be coming out on DVD next year! Woo hoo! :D )

I also like Dragonball Z's three main movies: Dead Zone, The Tree of Might, and World's Strongest.

Did I miss anything?

Record of Lodoss War is a movie?

Here's my faves:

Dumbo
101 Dalmations
My Neighbour Totoro
Galaxy Express 999
Kiki's Delivery Service

[I.R Joey]

I really liked Titan A.E personally, I thought it was a pretty descent movie.

The Prince of Egypt was also pretty good.

Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust: Was another extreamly well designed movie, with cutting edge animation, and an interesting story.

I also liked Mulan, though some people didn't.

[Calhoun07]

Princess Mononoke
Perfect Blue
Dog of Flanders
Heavy Metal
Toy Story 2

and I am sure I will think of more later on!

[Jowy Blight]

Princess Mononoke
Return of the Joker
Akira
Street Fighter 2: The Animated Movie
Dragonball Z movie 5( The Best of Strongest Vs. Strongest), 6( Clash!! 10,000,000,000 Power Warriors!), 7( Utmost Limits of Battle!!), 8( Burnout!! Fierce fight, Violent Fight, Super-Exciting Fight!), 9( The Galaxy's in Danger! The Super Awesome Guy!), and 12 ( The Rebirth of Fusion, Goku and Vejita)

I have more, but I can't remember right now.

[NewMaxFranklin]

I haven't seen many of the ones listed already.

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm
Beauty and the Beast
Street Fighter 2: The Animated Movie
and
Toy Story 2
spring to mind.

[Ruffian]

in no particular order:

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm (a very well done Batman film overall)
Return of the Joker (great Batman Beyond story, dark, fills in some of the gaps in the past)
An American Tail (good music, good story, touching)
The Land Before Time (same as American Tail, two very good Don Bluth films too.)
The Little Mermaid (The movie that started Disney's Golden era. It was big when it first came out, and as a kid I loved it when I first saw it in the theaters. New character designs from the movies before it, good story overall, and great music)
Toy Story and Toy Story 2 (heh, I don't think I need to speak for these movies. ;) )


other favorites of mine:
Sleeping Beauty
Robin Hood
The Stone in the Sword
Balto
Secret of the Sword
Wakko's Wish
Mulan
Tarzan

[Samhaine]

One of my favorites (that I'm actually including in the whopping 30 min presentation on animated films) that I'm surprised hasn't been mentioned yet, as it was always the talk of the town on the old boards, is The Iron Giant. It was a great film. The ending made my roommate cry.

Also, I have to include MotP, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Akira, and The Emporer's New Groove (probably one of the funniest movies Disney made).

Tonight I get to watch all of these movies (you'd think that'd be a good thing...)

[Joe Tully]

Iron Giant
Yellow Submarine
Princess Mononoke
Kiki's Delivery Service

And while I haven't seen them in a looong time

Snow White
Pinocchio

[Danielle]

Reading through other people's posts, I got some more:

Yellow Submarine (don't know how I could have forgotten that, especially after the George Harrison incident [WAAAAAAAAAHHHH!!!!])

Kiki's Delivery Service (nice story, funny, touching, etc.)

An Americal Tail & An American Tail: Fievel Goes West (my younger years revolved around this movie, from Saturday night viewings to a towel with Fievel's picture)

Ah! Emperor's New Groove. Can't forget that one. And the Nightmare Before Christmas...I have a lot of favorite animated movies, okay?! :D

Akira:
I heard of that somewhere before...something about wrinkled faces. {*shrugs*} I thought it was live-action, not animated...then again, I've never seen it, nor have I seen a poster or picture from it.

[Batman 80]

Transformers the movie,Batman mask of the Phantasm,and Batman Beyond Return of the Joker(unedited version).

technically Record of lodoss war isn't a movie. It's an OVA series,but there is also a ROLW TV series called the chronicles of the heroic knight. :)
another great flick was X the Movie(got great animation andd great story )

[Jimmy Kustes]

Wallace and Gromit.

Wrong Trousers and Close Shave are good, I can't remember the name of the first one on the moon, but it wasn't the best.

[Roman Legion]

Another vote for Secret of NIHM! :D

It's the film that opened up the market for "anime" in America. Something about a kid who's used as a test experiment but goes wacko and blows stuff up.
