Animated Movie (Old-Fashioned or Newfangled)

"I would sooner destroy a stained-glass window as an artist like yourself."
-The Princess Bride
(1987)

Carol's pick:
Toy Story (1995) and Toy Story 2 (1999) - The second one's as good as the first. Eagerly anticipating the third installment in June.

  5. The Emperor's new grove has to be the funniest, but i feel someone should stick up for the Lion King.

  6. *Beauty and the Beast* - Little Mermaid, this, Aladdin, and Lion King came out when I was just the right ages to enjoy them. This one is the standard, in my opinion, and Belle is the BEST of the Disney female leads.

    *Wall-E* - A great movie throughout, anyway, but I'd watch it just to get to the closing credits sequence.

    *Shrek* - The original is exactly what a fractured fairy tale should be-- and I love fractured fairy tales. Didn't like Shrek 2 much, though, and haven't seen the third.

    *Chicken Run* - Hilarious. Plus, I'm just enthralled by claymation.
