Movies that kindled my love for animation.

I would certainly not be here were it not for the following

Characters like Tulio, Wilbur Robinson, and David Tennant are my favourite. Over the top actions, hilarious lines, fantastic hand gestures, and great facial expression/voice acting, they must have been so fun to animate.

this scene from the 'Thief and the Cobbler' Inspired by M.C. Escher, always blows my mind. And after watching the directors "Recobbled cut," I realized how crappy the theatrical release really was, and it's sad, because it started so good.
I also love that things are always falling out of tack.

I watched this movie repeatedly as a child. Selick's stop motion is so unbelievably fluid that I after watching these too much I can find frames in regular animation. Wallace and grommit were good, but they were no nightmare before christmas/James and the Giant Peach. also, Coraline, blew my mind.

Between Mirage's hair, and facial expression after the punch, to Bob's micro emotions, Holly Hunter's voice, and the sheer complexity in the rendering of Human Beings, and skin (plus, Jackjack is so adorable). Pixar's The Incredibles is my favourite Pixar movie, hands down. Up is looking more amazing by the second, though.

Another movie I watched on repeat. It seemed so toned down from all the other movies, even in it's action scenes it was simply running and stuff. But, the drawings were so good. A pinnacle of Disney characters.
