Ok im going to start with the movie which I remember the least of. It was a animated movie I believe in the style of Wizards, and Heavy Metal. The only scene that I can remember is when the protagonists of the movie are threatened in a swamp by a couple of cyborgs. I remember that one of the cyborgs had his guts showing and when he tryed to attack his guts were either shot or stabbed and there was alot of brownish blood. For some reason this particular scene has always stuck with me.
On to number two. This was a TV show that was on early in the mornings when I was about 8, I'm 25 now. It was a show about a apocalyptic world were humans and machines were fighting eachother.It was live action for the most part but the machines were either created using very early cgi, animatronics,or perhaps even animation.I think but am probably wrong that the shows name started with a R. There were trading cards for this show as I used to have a set and maybe toys also. I never got to see much of it because it was on early sunday mornings and I always had to go to church.
Lastly is the movie I remember the most of. It was animated and took place in a future were humans were dead and the descendent's of animals had taken over. The bad guy was trying to open a portal to another dimension to bring a demon through, but he needed a specific voice or sound to do it. So he abducted a girl from a rock band, and the movie is all about how the members of the rock band tryed to save this girl.I saw it a few months back at a BestBuy on dvd but for some reason never bought it.

Can you provide any more information about the 1st.  An idea of when you saw it would be helpful.

The second could be "Robotix."  Check and see if this Wikipedia entry rings any bells:

Your third film is definitely "Rock & Rule."  I keep meaning to review that one.  The evil guy, voiced by Iggy Pop, looks like a mixture of Mick Jagger and David Bowie.

For the first, I'd go to IMDB and look up Ralph Bakshi, as he directed both Wizards and Heavy Metal. Look through his works and see if anything sounds familiar.

The second one sounds like it could be either Photon or Laser Tag.
I tend to get them confused, but they were two different shows about identical toys.

# 2 could also be CAPTAIN POWER AND THE SOLDIERS OF THE FUTURE.

First id like to say thanks for the help, I didn't think that i'd get so many good answers. First Rock and Rule is definatly the movie I was thinking of for number 3.I need to buy it next time I see it.  Captain Power and the soldiers of the future is likely the tv show. The few video and pictures I can find definatly fit what I remeber of the show. The show was as I remeber rather dark for a kids show at that time. Fire and Ice might be the first movie but with what few pictures I can find of it I can't be sure.Ill probably have to rent or buy it to find out.

"Fire and Ice" could be the film you remember, as there is a good bit of fighting and there is a dismal swamp.  However, there are no cyborgs.  If you can remember any more details, please post them.  It seems like any classic animation film should be one we can dig out.

Really?  Wow, you would think I would remember the scene.  However, I will definitely admit that it could fit into that movie easily.

EDIT:  This was not intended to cast doubt on the ID.  If Akiratubo says that is the film, then I would trust him to nail it.  He is one of our resident animation gurus.

I think it is Star Chaser as well.  I saw that movie not to long ago.  Kick butt movie.
