I love animation, always have and always will.I enjoy it because of the animators talent and because animated movies can tell storys that simply can't be told through live action.What are some of your favorite animated movies.
Mine are....
Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust
Princess Mononokee
Robot Carnival
The Iron Giant
Shrek
Monsters Inc

I remember when "Hercules" (the Disney movie) came out in 1997.

I smoked an entire joint to myself after I got off work (I worked at the theater at that time) out in the parking lot in my car and went back inside, saw it for free and was blown away!

I also loved South Park the Movie.

Yup, South Park is definitley a classic.

My other favourites [movie wise] are:

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within
Castle of Cagliostro
Ninja Scroll [gotta love guys with swords]
Ghost in the Shell
The Animatrix [although not really a movie, but still really cool anyways, lotsa talent involved on that one]
Perfect Blue [nutty film]


I'd so love to make a live action movie with the same sort of concepts as anime [Matrix did something similar, but I want a more supernatural nutty side to it, not just hardcore action]

as a kid i was never into animated films so I guess as an adult much hasn't changed, except maybe the film's themselves. I find most animated films too cutsey - of course they do make them for adults only, I just never moved to that genre. That being said, the one movie that sticks out as "Secret of Nihm". The crow scenes that get goofy can go ..but I even still enjoy it.

I'm going to have to go with anime on this post.  American animation just doesn't do much for me.

My favorites would be:

1. Chobits-Not actually a film, but at 30 episodes (apx 12hrs) it does make for quite a long viewing.  Fantastic animation and hilarious story.

2. Akira-I don't even have to say anything about this.  Classic stuff.

3. Vampire Hunter D-The original is still one of my favorite films of all time.  I was really let down by Bloodlust.  I have a copy of it and no matter how many times I try to watch it, I can never make it all the way through.  

4. Grave Of The Fireflies-Heartbreaking flick about WWII bombings and the effect that it had on some of the children.  Amazing flick.

5. Metropolis AKA Robotic Angel-Definently one of the best animated Anime films in years.  It has a very retro animated look to it; think early disney style.



On a side note, Disney recently said that after 'Home On The Range' comes out in '04, they will no longer be making hand drawn films.

Monsters, Inc.
The Jungle Book
Heavy Metal
The animated scenes in "The Wall" are really wierd

As a family, we watch a lot of the (classic) Disney movies ... just got "Aristocats" which I had not seen since I was a small boy.  Of the newer ones, we have Lion King and Little Mermaid.

The Wall, yes, (not a movie to see while on mushrooms, BTW).
Also Fantasia (great to see stoned, and once you grow up, stone cold sober with a great sound system).

Akira
The Fox and the Hound
The Hobbit
Heavy Metal
G.I. Joe: The Movie
and my favorite animated movie ever - Transformers: The Movie.  Doesn't get any more metal than that.
I don't think the South Park movie is a classic, though.  The show is funny, yeah, but the movie just degraded into "Look how cool it is that we can say 'f**k' now!  Look at us say 'f**k' some more!  Isn't it funny to say 'f**k' a LOT!?!?!?!?"  Not that I don't say it a lot, but the word in and of itself isn't that funny and doesn't warrant an hour and a half feature film dedicated to the word solely because it exists.  That said, the "Blame Canada" song is still pretty funny.

Chuang Tzu couldn`t believe this and asked, 'If I could return you to your life, you would want that, wouldn`t you?'
Stunned by Chuang Tzu`s foolishness, the skull replied, 'How do you know that it is bad to be dead?'

I am not  very enthusiastic about animation, but recently I "discobered" Hayao Miyazaki through "Spirited away", and that's easily the best animated film I have ever seen. "Laputa - Castle in the sky" would be the second, and "Princess Mononoke" or "Porco Rosso" would compete for the third place. I might prefer "Porco Rosso" over "P. Mononoke" because I feel it is a more balanced film. I also enjoyed "Akira", but I didn't understand much of the ending.

Don't see much Disney stuff, although I've heard many good things of their latest releases, no mather what that Disney's descendant might say. I might watch "Treasure Planet" in the near future, because I saw a scene of it on TV (the scene where Long John Silver introduces himself to Jim) and it looked amazing.

Due to the horrifying nature of this film, no one will be admitted to the theatre.

The Hobbit and Watership Down are two of my favorites.

BrotherR mentioned Charlie Brown Christmas and I will second that - it's my favorite Christmas special because it's the only one I can think of (except Little Drummer Boy) that actually acknowledges the true meaning of the holiday.

I third A Charlie Brown Christmas.  Though not officially a movie, it packs more message into 27 minutes than most films--animated or otherwise--can in two hours.  
The first animated film I remember seeing in the theatre was A Boy Named Charlie Brown.  It remains among my  favorite films of all time.
