Do you all watch animation movies?

K-so don;t want to sound like a total dork-but do you all watch animation movies? I loved finding Nemo-and although I admit my cousin has already asked me to see Home on the Range-I'm still looking forward to seeing it.

The humor translates to adults too-which makes me feel good about going to see it.I hope it does well at the box office, since the commercials I've seen are hialrious!

I don't watch many animation movies, but there are a few that I like.

My favourite animation movie ever is Le Roi et L'oiseau. It's definitely not just a movie for children.

I also liked AntZ a lot. I adore Woody Allen's voice.

And don't forget Japanese animation, like Spirited Away and Akira, both of which I thought were fantastic.

Sure, I'll watch most films, and animation, regardless of who the film is aimed at, is often very interesting.

And of course, I have a long standing tradition with my grandmother to watch anything animated by Disney (her favorite, along with James Bond!).

A few; the trailer or word-of-mouth (or text) has to really grab me.

The Triplets of Belleville animation technique reminds me of old school Disney -- like The Rescuers and 101 Dalmatians. I'll have to check it out; after watching the Oscars and seeing the clips it did look interesting.

I love animated movies, esp. anything by Disney, or Disney/Pixar (whose partnership is no more because of that bastard Michael Eisner... [img]smilies/pout.gif[/img] ) -- they can do no wrong in my eyes. I also like computer animated flicks, like the opening scene in The Animatrix or Final Fantasy...very cool. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Anime is awesome too -- I don't know all the names, but I love the ones with the guys that have pointy ears and long hair and long coats and long swords and they're really tall...as you can see I have a way with words, but they're just long in general, and it looks so awesome. DBZ gets my vote too; luuurrrve that one. I am Trunks' bitch. [img]smilies/sigh.gif[/img]

as for non-disney animated I like Anastasia, and I love Veggietales.

I adored Finding Nemo. I've seen it like three times now and it always makes my cry. I also love Studio Ghibli animation like Spirited Away, Totoro (sp?). I don't see animation as anything dorky. They can be just as moving as any real life films. Take a look at Grave of the Fireflies. I could only watch it once because it really is thought provoking and depressing. A brilliant anti war film if ever I saw one.

I personally think Animated Film is much better than live action, but I was raised on cartoons and never seemed to grow out of it. People think it's weird that a 20 year old is obsessed with Disney, but I just think that company is FANTASTIC! They can't put a foot wrong. Lion King would be my favourite. I even have a top 10 list and number one spot is both LOTR and The Lion King. I can't decide which one is better. I have debates about this all the time, but I just love them all.

I definitely watch and enjoy animated movies. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] I've loved watching Disney movies since I was little and I still enjoy them just about as much today.

My favorite Disney animated movie is probably Beauty and the Beast. And my fave non-Disney one is Anastasia. <--- I just [img]smilies/love.gif[/img] that movie. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Not really. I have a hard time watching animated characters in movies. I can watch cartoons all day but strangely I don't feel the same way about animated movies. I can like them, but getting me to watch one it's the difficult task.

I love Fantasia, though. And Alice in Wonderland but those are classics.

Not all, but that goes the same for any other type of film. The story or concept has to interest me.

There's several animated movies that I adore, though. Shrek, Finding Nemo, Lion King, Aladdin, etc...
