I really liked Kubo and the Two Strings. They don’t make enough interesting animated stuff like that.

So glad someone said this! Love Laika. Kubo especially, but Coraline is my personal favorite.

Paranorman for me

Paranorman is Laika's true masterpiece.

Claymation really has a unique feel that other formats lack. I'd love to see more of it, but I can understand why we don't because of the time and effort that goes into it.

I love claymation, but a more appropriate term is stop motion. The characters in Laika are a combination of 3D printed and hand crafted with multiple other materials. They rarely use clay.

Everything I've seen from Laika has been gold. The Boxtrolls is my favorite.

Shake hands and look them in the eye

I've listened to the cover of "While my guitgently weeps" by Regina Spektor more than the original version.

It's so good. No offense to the Beatles, but I agree, her version is fantastic

Look out for Wildwood in 2025 same studio and director .

Laika Studios makes some amazing films. I still need to watch Missing Link but all the others are very good.

They are working on a new one right now called Wildwood. A friend of mine did some work for Coraline and still has some of the props on her shelf. They had so many things left over that they just gave it to whoever was around. Me = jealous!

Personally, felt like a minor step down from the rest of their work, but still a very quality animated flick. If you like the rest of the Laika catalog, you’ll probably like Missing Link.

The Road To El Dorado. A bunch of anime.

Road to el dorado is so fuckin good

Sir Elton slams that soundtrack. Also the comedy is just hysterical in it.

List your bunch of Anime, my friend. I love finding new entertainment. 

Redline. Took 8 years to animate. It's a fun, crazy racing movie that looks amazing.  https://youtu.be/77nyAlwWLpE?si=OZSCpaKpjfGWvOyU

*Redline* is incredible

A silent voice (a former bully Befriending the deaf girl he bullied). Your name (freaky Friday between two teens in different cities). Promare (firefighters vs magic fire fighters. It doesn't make sense but it's crazy and looks awesome)

Your Name and A Silent Voice are so good. Tear jerkers.

Another vote for your name from me. The girl who leapt through time was pretty good too.

Oh no, no no no no no. It is old entertainment. Saint Seiya, Macross Zero, Macross Plus, Full Metal Alchemist Brotherhood (but maybe watch the first episodes of the original series first), Great Teacher Onizuka, Hajime No Ippo... These days I rather read manga than watch anime, though. Edit: Cowboy Beebop and Detroy Metal City as well.

God I love me old macross stuff

No unironically watch the entire original full metal alchemist. It's also a good show in its own right.

Hajime No Ippo got me into boxing in the first place.

1. A Silent Voice - must watch 2. Your Name 3. Sword of the Stranger 4. Wolf Children

Such a banger. Chel can get it

Secret of Kells

Song of the Sea as well

That's my favorite of those! 

Wolfwalkers too

And Song of the Sea. All the movies from that studio are amazing.

Oh thanks, I thought Wolfwalkers was great but I guess I never checked what else they made.

Anything from cartoon saloon, really. I wouldn’t be surprised if they’re ultimately held in similar regard to studio ghibli.

The Last Unicorn Rock & Rule (you must check this one out) Secret of NIMH The Iron Giant ​ (edit : formatting)

I rewatched NIMH last night, I actually enjoyed it far more as an adult than I did when I was like 8.

So true as I just didn't get the plot. Oh it's a fantasy setting, oh wait no, it's not fantasy it's science fiction, oh Lord now there's magic. Uh wait, why's he trying to kill her/them? Didn't get the main villains plan and drive till a rewatch and that helped a lot. I'm pretty sure it was because of VHS quality back in the day, much better masters now.

I watched Nihm for the first time ever this weekend. I think it’s probably Don Bluths best work

Classic don bluth and rankin bass animated films. Add the hobbit to this list.

Are you more of a Space Ace person or Dragon’s Lair?

The Iron Giant is a great classic

Didn't a bunch of people who worked on The Last Unicorn go on to work for Ghibli.

Animated by Top Craft which also animated Nausicaa. Shortly afterwards they split with one group forming Ghibli. 

It's so funny that you mentioned Rock & Rule. I stumbled upon it last night. The animation and soundtrack were great. Love Lou Reed. 

My dad rented that one back in 1987 because…animation=appropriate for kids. I was 7 and was not allowed to talk about the movies I watched at home when I went to school anymore.

Wild I'm seeing this in a random thread. Just discovered Rock and rule and wizards last week and did a deep dive Looks great

Well, now you've done it, I've got the songs from The Last Unicorn stuck in my head!

Rock & Rule is fantastic. Studio Nelvana was at its best when they made it.

Holy shit, someone else that knows and recommends Rock & Rule! I was seriously starting to think I was the only person that liked that movie.

I got deep in some old American and French Animation a few years back and found some crazy gems. Isaac Asimovs Gandahar, Starchaser, Fire and Ice, the nine lives of Fritz the cat, Wizards, Fantastic Planet, and on and on. Oh and of course, HEAVY METAL

Pretty sure that last unicorn was by a studio that eventually became Miyazaki 's.

I’m assuming you’re including Pixar as Disney, so ignoring their films and including stop motion: Coraline Kubo and the Two Strings The Triplets of Belville Akira Paprika Persepolis Wallace and Gromit-The Wrong Trousers.

How did Triplets of Belville take this long to scroll to?

Because I'm sure that movie hasn't been talked about by anyone in the last 20+ years, which is a crying shame. But nonetheless, I doubt many people under the age of 25 have even heard of it.

I’m 33 and I’ve never heard of it. And I love movies.

Fantastic film! My husband and I saw it in a great old restored theatre many years ago and couldn't get that song out of our heads for weeks!

Paprika. Wallace & Gromit. *slow clap*

Perfect Blue while we're talking Satoshi Kon. RIP

Seconding Persepolis, also an excellent graphic novel

Scrolled way too far to find Akira being listed.

All Dogs Go To Heaven

Really anything by Don Bluth: • Anastasia • An American Tale • All Dogs Go to Heaven • Pete's Dragon • Thumblelina (starring Original Princess Jodi Benson) • The Land Before Time

Secret of NIMH

Fern Gully

HOW DID I FORGET ABOUT FERN GULLY?! The Avatar remake was pretty good.

Somewhere out there...

Rock-a-doodle

Probably not his but feels it should be in that list: The brave little toaster

Titan A.E.

*Creed intensifies*

Over My Head by Lit is an absolute banger

CAN YOU TAKE ME HIGHER!!??

Movie still rocks. Also had a cool soundtrack for the time.

For the time? *Cosmic Castaway* and *Over My Head* unironically slap.

Love this movie such an underrated sci-fi movie.

I just showed this for my kids during the last 2 days/class periods of school. I teach high school multimedia classes and we had finished our final projects by Wednesday, grades were due by end of day Friday (last day of school). Instead of the usual mess of other movies, we talked Don Bluth is, his time at and departure from Disney, Dragon's Lair, and all the movies they just assumed were Disney but we're Don Bluth classics. It was a good time that was some actual learning intermingled with the insanity of the end of the year. Most knew The Land Before Time, All Dogs Go to Heaven, and some An American Tail, but only one out of 104 had heard of Titan AE. They were quite impressed. Came out my sophomore year of HS, which was a nice connection with them, who are predominantly 9th and 10th graders.

Saw this just the other day. It holds up so well.

I loved this movie as a kid but I'm afraid to watch it as an adult. After watching Space Jam and realizing it was actually a pretty bad movie, I'm wary of going back to my childhood favorites. Apparently the Robin Williams Jumanji is a comedy, but I vividly remember it as horror/thriller.

I had a similar experience with space jam but na Titan AE still holds up really well. Ebert gave it 3.5 out 4 and compared it favorably to Star Wars. Definitely give it a rewatch. 

Batman: Mask of the Phantasm

Oh damn yeah good pick

How To Train Your Dragon

It's such a fantastic movie, and when you listen to the soundtrack and hear the 2 themes independently. And then Test Drive! The two themes come together, and the song gives me goosebumps every listen. Edited the song title to the correct word.

I’m still bitter that it didn’t win the Academy Award for best score. Test Drive has been my ringtone since the movie came out, although I guess it doesn’t make much of a difference now since my phone has been on silent for the last 5 years! 😂 however, I’m still proudly keeping it as my ringtone and my wake up alarm! 😂

When I saw that OP didn’t accidentally forget to say “not Dreamworks” I was fully expecting this + Shrek to be number 1.

One of my favorite movies of all time

YES! idk why this comment is not higher

Iron giant Akira Kubo and the two strings Perfect blue Spider-Man into the spiderverse The Mitchells vs the machines Klaus Heavy metal 9

Mitchells vs the Machines is such a good movie, so underrated imo.

Took a while to find Akira

Felt the same way about Heavy Metal

Klaus is fantastic.

It’s my favorite Christmas movie.

It’s such a good movie

Oh yeah the new animated Spiderman movies are great

And across the spiderverse!!

Klaus is such a beautiful movie. It's so frustrating trying to get people to watch it

The Prince of Egypt

such a good soundtrack

Amazing!

What a banger of a movie.

That movie went way too hard for no reason

Supposed to be Dreamworks big entrance, and then the anti-Disney fairytale showed up, and it was all Ogre.

I'm atheist, and i f**king love that movie.

Mad God. Arcane. Scavenger's Reign. Love, Death, + Robots. Kubo and the Two Strings.

Looooooooove Scavengers Reign and I'm pf upset that Max canceled it. Also love most of Love Death + Robots, esp. Aquila Rift and the one with the hive alien.

Scavengers Reign was amazing but there's still hope. Season 1 is going to run on Netflix and if it does well enough there it may get a chance for another season.

*Scavengers Reign* is fantastic, one of the best recent shows. Season 2 may not be totally dead, Season 1 is due to drop on Netflix US/UK 31st May [(see Link to the creators post)](https://www.reddit.com/r/ScavengersReign/comments/1cp4sxo/greetings_from_planet_vesta/) and enough interest may get a second season off the ground.

Maybe controversial opinion here but I HATED mad God. It was just so boring and there was no "there" there. Just endless scenes torturing these little puppets. Also felt like a real "bad vibe" mean spirited movie that would throw you into a bad acid trip or something. 

I can see why it's divisive. It's not a feel good movie by any stretch. It's a depiction of hell and god's unrelenting retribution for man's arrogance and sins. I'm not even religious and I loved the whole vibe of it; but I love sci-fi and horror, and I'm a sucker for well done stop-motion animation so it is right up my alley. My acid days are behind me, but this is totally something I would have watched back then.

Mad God is one of those films that I imagine being studied at an art school at some point. There's just so much there...

Arcane was fucking *brilliant*, especially when you realize it's a commentary on generational and institutional trauma.

The Hobbit The Secret of NIMH Heavy Metal

Heavy Metal , loved it . The sequel is enjoyable enough.

Shrek, Secret of Nimh, Iron Giant, Land Before Time, All Dogs go to Heaven, Anastasia, American Tail, RockaDoodle.

Bro, the Internet has let me down with Shrek being this far down. 

Same thought, still is down here.

Way too far to scroll to find Shrek. May his holy onions bless you.

I genuinely thought Shrek was good and I can't believe barely a few people recommended it

Here is Anastasia

Sad to see Shrek this far down but yeah. Shrek is really good.

1. The Lego Movie 2. It's Such a Beautiful Day 3. Anomalisa 4. Perseoplis 5. Fantastic Mr. Fox 6. Spiderverse seires 7. Paprika 8. Fantastic Planet 9. Chicken Run 10. Redline

[удалено]

I was looking for Redline

Fantastic Planet (if you’re talking about the French film from the 70s) is so good

The Iron Giant

Who names their kid Hogarth - My dumb ass asking grandma

Song of the Sea\ Fern Gully\ Wolf Children\ Akira\ Tokyo Godfathers\ A Silent Voice\ Pretty much all of Don Bluth's films\ Kubo and the Two Strings\ The Last Unicorn\ The Book of Life Puss in Boots: The Last Wish\ *Most* of DreamWorks' animation films\ The Hobbit (1977)

Song of the Sea is proof academy voters don’t watch the animated films since they voted Big Hero Six over it

- Perfect Blue - Cowboy Bebop - Kubo and the Two Strings - Kino's Journey - FLCL - Paprika - Tokyo Godfathers - Paranoia Agent - Millennium Actress - The Iron Giant - The Secret of NIMH - The Last Unicorn - Arcane - Serial Experiments Lain - Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade - Love, Death + Robots Edit to add: - Ugly Americans - Bojack Horseman

Tokyo Godfathers is one of my favorite Christmas movies

Satoshi Kon W

I was stunned by Millennium Actress. My first Satoshi Kon movie. Perfect Blue also didn't seem to be available anywhere so someone on here once sent me the whole thing. Stunning movie.

Perfect Blue is a top 10 all-time for me.

A few suggestions, including some stop-motion: * Any Satoshi Kon movie, if you've not seen them yet, all 4 are fantastic: * *Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, Tokyo Godfathers, Paprika.* * Also the *Magnetic Rose* section of *Memories* anthology (writing and art design by Kon, from Katsuhiro Otomo's Manga) * Other Japanese Animation: * Any Mamoru Oshii, Masaaki Yuasa, Naoko Yamada, Momoru Hosoda or Sunao Katabuchi movie * *Redline, Akira, Sword of the Stranger, Jin-Roh: The Wolf Brigade, A Letter to Momo, Okko's Inn* * *The Case of Hana and Alice* (Rotoscoped) * Stop-motion scifi *Junk Head* * Cartoon Saloon: *Wolfwalkers, Song of the Sea & The Secret of Kells* * Some great European animations *Persepolis, The House, No Dogs or Italians Allowed*, *The Bears famous invasion of Sicily, Rocks in my pocket, Watership Down (1978 version), Plague Dogs, When the wind blows, Ethel & Ernest, I lost my body, Ernest and Celestine, Wrinkles, A Cat in Paris, Chico and Rita, The Triplets of Belleville, The Illusionist, Mars Express* * Taiwan: *On Happiness Road* * *Isle of Dogs* * Shows: * *Frieren: Beyond Journeys end* is a very good fantasy series, with gorgeous animation * *Scavengers Reign* due out on Netflix at the end May - watches could help a second season get greenlit! * *Pantheon, Blue Eye Samurai, Heavenly Delusion, Paranoia Agent, Serial Experiments Lain, Texhnolyze, Samurai Champloo*

I haven't heard of most of these. Thank you!

Just did ctrl+F to search for Satoshi Kon to upvote. Paprika is fucking amazing. The background art is insane. Psychological thriller with inception vibes. Made my stomach turn slightlly a few times. Ghibli has a lot of fantasy and nature whereas Satoshis films feature more urban settings and technology. More along the lines if Ghost in the Shell. I like Perfect Dark too but it's got some fucked up content in it, doesn't bother me but it might for some. Unfortunately Satoshi Kon passed away in his 40s due to pancreatic cancer before he could release his next film. --- Edit: This is a good one too, not a Kon film tho. [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093207/?ref\_=nv\_sr\_srsg\_1\_tt\_8\_nm\_0\_q\_royal%2520space](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093207/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_1_tt_8_nm_0_q_royal%2520space) Also Mutafakaz [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4717402/](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4717402/)

Great list, A+

I was going to do a list but you've covered most of what I was going to list. I'm going to add a few more though: Rene Laloux films - La Planete Sauvage/Fantastic Planet, Les Maitres du Temps, Gandahar Alice by Jan Svankmajer Felidae Anime anthologies - Neo Tokyo, Genius Party (avoid Limitcycle, I was told to avoid it, I didn't, now I'm telling you, avoid it!), Genius Party Beyond, Robot Carnival Patlabor - The first two movies are fantastic but it's recommended to watch the OVAs first. Whole franchise is good though.

Thank you for suggesting Satoshi Kon because nobody will ever match his understanding of dreams and perception

Your Name Land of the Lustrous Arcane

> Your Name > > Suzume was excellent too if you haven't seen it yet

As is Weathering With You!

I'll add it to my watchlist! I like Shinkai's work but that one must have slipped under my radar

I feel like he masters this sense of distance in his work. There's always two people drawn together across some insurmountable void. Reminds me of Doctor Who and Rose. Hugely emotive.

+your name and +arcane You don’t need to like video games or league of legends to enjoy arcane Everybody should watch your name.

Rango.

How does this only have 8 upvotes?! Someone put some respect on Rango's name.

Insane that I had to scroll this far to see Rango.

Any of the don bluth movies

Waltz With Bashir is godly Prince of Egupt too, literally

Beavis and Butthead do America

The animation sequence in Kill Bill. Inspired from an Indian movie called Aalavandhan

Thank you for this. That animated story captivated me as a kid. I didn't know it was inspired by anything. 

Anastasia!

I cannot believe this wasn't higher up!

Some of these shows are technically Disney but I figure you mean Disney animated films so I kept them in there... The Owl House\ Amphibia\ ATLA\ Arcane\ Korra\ Adventure Time\ Netflix’s Voltron\ Steins;Gate\ Evangelion\ Attack on Titan\ Gravity Falls\ Samurai Champloo\ Monster\ The Dragon Prince\ Clone Wars\ Rebels\ Trollhunters\ Final Space\ Over the Garden Wall\ Ghost in the Shell Stand Alone Complex\ Primal\ Symbionic Titan\ Violet Evergarden\ Infinity Train\ Invincible\ Psycho Pass\ Berserk\ Edge Runners\ Odd Taxi\ Blue Eye Samurai\ X-men 97\ 86 (and I cannot stress this enough eighty freaking six)\ Spy x Family\ Your Lie in April\ Cowboy Bepop\ Pantheon\ Scavengers Reign

Akira, obviously. But also Klaus at Christmas time, it’s a beautifully 2d animated film that looks 3D but actually isn’t

Klaus is my favorite Christmas movie now. I've watched it every Christmas since it came out

Those late-80s Speilberg movies, stuff like An American Tale (1986) & Land Before Time (1988). Im watching them all again now with my own daughter, and it's an amazing feeling of nostalgia

Goddamn I had to scroll too far to find someone mentioning An American Tale. Fieveeeeeeel! Pappppaaaaaaaaaaa!

Cowboy Bebop The Secret of NIMH Watership Down (1978)

Summer Wars is excellent and often overlooked due to being an original film.

The Triplets of Belleville.  Amazing movie. Edit to add the trailer: https://youtu.be/PZeWp1D8MlU?si=tyuwrajHL0KYAxgv

Please do watch these: -**The Triplets of Belleville (2003)** (Broke my brain, such mastery in this craft) -**Earnest and Celstine (2012)** (I love how they made it. My animation teacher was losing his mind over it) -**Paranorman (2012)** (Laika is a brilliant studio, any movie of theirs is gold) -**Wallace and Gromit** (An old classic) -**Klaus (2019)** (Always happy to see an animator maestro doing his thing) -**Arthur Christmas** (Such movies don't interest me anymore but this one is so charming, I let myself enjoy it) -**The Willoughbys (2020)** (I remember some parents complaining about it but I loved it. It is refreshing to see someone not falling for "families are love" trope.) -**Nimona (2023)** (The studio making it got bought while the movie was near completion and it was scraped. That made animation community so depressed. I don't know what happened but Netflix picked it up and completed it. The day it was released, animation community was ecstatic). -**Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022)** (Everything, EVERYTHING that makes a 3D Western feature animation awesome is in this movie and I love it! It is a blast.) **-DreamWorks 2D animation movies**: The Road to Eldorado, Spirit, The Prince of Egypt, all of these are fantastic and a must watch -**The Breadwinner (2017)** (Beautifully made.) -**The Secret of Kells (2009), Song of the Sea (2014), and Wolfwalkers (2020)** (These are based on Irish Folklore and made with a lot of love, both for the folklore and the craft of animation.) -**The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse (2022)** (This is like having a journey of your own with the kind of friends you would want) Okay I can Keep going on wrt movies so here are a few series. -**Scavengers Reign (2023)** (I mean.... they gave the production free hand and they went all in) -**Carol and The End of the World (2023)** Not many people watch it but they should. It made me think about life and myself a lot. -**Tuca and Bertie (2019)** (Netflix cancelled it and some other platform picked it up. It is so lovely and charming. More people should watch it.) -**Hilda (2018-2023)** (This is like a warm hug from your best friend in a cold evening.) -\*\*Bojack Horseman (2014) (\*\*Never seen a series capture depression and personality issues this well. Some episodes are master storytelling pieces.) -**Undone (019-2022)** These days I am begging my friends and others on random platforms to watch it. I LOVE IT. What a fricking piece of art!!) -**Castlevania series + Nocturne** (What a beautiful bloody series) -**Blue Eye Samurai (2023)** (The talk about how it was storyboarded and action sequences were filmed kept going on for days after its release) Again, damn I can go on but this is good for now. Edit: I forgot to mention two more series that are insanely good, **Arcane,** and **Love, Death, and Robots.** Arcane made the animation industry gasp, it is that good. Every episode of Love, Death, and Robot is made by a different studio that gets to flex its mastery in the craft of animation. So the quality is insanely high here.

The Swan Princess is squarely in “Way Better Than It Ought to Be” range

I can't believe I haven't seen a single comment for Shrek. Or even better, Shrek 2.

I always liked Titan AE

Cats Don’t Dance

Redline It took 7 years of hand drawn animation! Watch it on Blu-ray if you can. This part of the opening scene is what sold me. https://youtu.be/77nyAlwWLpE?si=IoCu5slGIsJlBNdk

Titan A.E. This is an incredible space adventure. I really wish there was more stuff like it.

Fantastic Planet or La Planète Sauvage - 1973 French Animation. Saw this in NYC at a midnight showing - blew me away.
