The best animated films of 06-07

[ZForce915]

So I took a break from watching anything animated for the last two years because we had a newborn and I knew pretty soon I'd be up to my eyeballs in animation. In that time I've completely forgotten what was good and what was bad in animation.

These are the movies I've purchased recently.

Cars
Ratatouille
Pixar Short Films Vol. 1
Shrek
Shrek 2
Ice Age
Finding Nemo
Monsters Inc.

Looking for ideas on newer movies, we have some classic Disney movies but we've already sorted through what we want in the classic line of films.

Am i the only one who noticed the 06-07 in the title?

[Surferflames]

Renaissance

Not exactly a family film, but its all mo-cap with decent actors doing the voices.

[guynextshore]

The Incredibles

This & Ratatouille.


Pixar is definately an amazing company.

[crystalklear64]

06-07:
Wallace and Gromit: Curse of the Were-rabbit (apparently also 05)
Nightmare Before Christmas (remastered came out in 06 and 07)
TMNT
The Corpse Bride (technically 05 but.. meh)

Movies you may have missed out on:
Titan A.E.
The Iron Giant
Atlantis: The Lost Empire

Mind Game. It's one of the brightest stars of originality and style in the animation world.

[ZForce915]

American animated films.

The Incredibles, Over the Hedge and Wallace and Gromit are great ones so far. Zen man, I wanted suggestions not every movie ever made :-).

Thanks for the ideas so far.

[Zen Davis]

In that case, I'll just say Monster House and Surf's Up. ;)

Never heard of that film..

[Kapwanil]

Never heard of that film..

Well, "Worst Thread of '08" had a few things going against it. Its initial extremely limited release in mid-2007 (12 screens, 9 of which were at then-defunct drive-thrus for some reason) simply alienated its core audience. It may have a cult following though since it just keeps poping up in threads around the internet since early January, so maybe the film has some legs on it still.

[carpwrist]

okay fine... my real submission would be:
Movies: Tales from Earthsea

Series:
The Boondocks
Lucy, the Daughter of the Devil

and of course "Worst Thread of '08" directed by crystalklear64, only because i heard Wombat was fluffing the actors.

[musics_muse]

wallace and gromit is british-made, i believe.

may or may not be off the topic: if you're going to buy disney classics, fyi aladdin, alice in wonderland, and peter pan are going back to the "vault" on jan 31st. i would highly suggest grabbing these by then if you havent already.

ratatouille was decent. incredibles definitely. nothing comes to mind right now, im on mental lockdown.

i thought surf's up and over the hedge were pfft. no offense but someone needs to pull the plug on producers thinking that celebrity voices will always always always produce a hit.

sorry im biased. im a pixar girl!

This man is correct.

[Brak]

Cars made me cry, but don't tell anybody.

[kaptinmorgan]

flushed away wasn't bad, had wolverine playing a fancy rat.

[karkyco]

Series:

Darkwing Duck
Duck Tales
Tale Spin
Chip & Dale Rescue Rangers
The Real Ghostbusters
Transformers
Transformers: Beast Wars
Invader Zim



Were the Disney TV shows even released on DVD??? If so I definitely need to pick them up. I've never seen them. I'd love to get the Gummi Bears, Darkwing Duck, Duck Tales and Chip & Dale's.

Real Ghostbusters...that wasn't released either was it?

And good luck finding Transformers. Thank God I at least completed that Rhino set. Hopefully Sony won't charge a rapefest when and IF they get around to releasing it (along with remastering it properly). Same with GI Joe, got season 1 and the initial 2 miniseries combo but no Season 2 Part 1.

Also, you may want to grab the following in addition to the previous quality lists:

He-man (all 4 of them are $20 each at Best Buy).
Thundercats (would love to find these for cheap)
Voltron (get the tins before they're gone)
Robotech (got all the original 3 disc sets, never got the remastered boxed sets)
Dungeons and Dragons
Captain N
The old Superfriends/Justice League ones but NOT the ones with the wonder twins or the Scooby Doo gang knockoffs
GODZILLA from the 70's (was this ever released???)

[-Never4ever-]

I'm surprised that no mentioned yet that Incredibles came out at the tail end of 2004.

Even so, if you haven't seen it / own it yet, do so. It's easily one of the best Pixar films I've ever seen IMO.
