such a great movie but well is a bit sad but it is cool

I love Miyazaki's films. The guy's amazing.

Haven't seen Grave of the Fireflies yet, but I hear it's very good. I'm planning to pick up the DVD sooner or later.

PHIL COLLINS OWNS CURRENT DISNEY MUSIC

Yay Phil. I dunno, I just thought Brother Bear was great. Disney had lost a lot of their magic, ever since Lion King. But Brother Bear seemed to fit right into that nitch of great disney toons. Probably because they had put the film on hold, around the time Beauty and the Beast came out.

I agree...Pocahantas was good enough, but I didn't enjoy a Disney movie until Mulan came out. Then after Tarzan I lost interest until The Emperor's New Groove came out! Woohoo!

My favorite? I honestly don't know...I don't watch many animated movies anymore. The only one I watched this year and enjoyed was the Cowboy Bebop movie (minus a few things I didn't like). I'm pretty much sick of all the animated movies that I watched as a kid, but the ones that stand out are Aladdin, The Lion King and The Emperor's New Groove.

Good choices so far. A couple that're kinda old, but will always be on my list of favorites are The Last Unicorn and The Flight of Dragons.

Great pick "The Last Unicorn". Can't wait for the live action movie. After seeing the design work for it. And the all star cast they've got on board. I know it's really going to kick arse.

is the last unicorn based on a book?

Yep, a 1968 novel by Peter S. Beagle, who's work has been compared on the level of Lewis, Tolkien and the Brothers Grimm. In 1982 it was made into a Rankin Bass animated movie, that did business on the level of Disney productions. Here's the cast for the live action movie, and a link to the official site. That has some amazing character designs. I'll even link in one of my favorite peices.

King Haggard -- Christopher Lee
Mommy Fortuna -- Angela Lansbury
Molly Grue -- Mia Farrow
Schmendrick the Magician -- Jonathan Rhys Meyers
Captain Cully / The Skeleton -- Rene Auberjonois
Lady Amalthea / the Unicorn -- TBA
Prince Lir -- TBA

My sister liked "The Last Unicorn" when we both were young. I never bothered to watch it, so I never really knew what it was like. We still had it so I pulled it out this year because I was curious if it was any good.
Really I found out its actually a decent movie. I loved the song America sang for it and it really lent a haunting atmosphere to the whole movie. In fact, the story was quite dark itself. I found it interesting that it was considered a kid's movie because it had some adult themes...

*The Defibrillator* · 12-05-2003, 12:55 AM

Emperor's New Groove is quite a choice movie, if I do say so.

Finding Nemo and Monster's Inc are the best computer animated films ever. Wow, I gotta go watch MI again.

Tenchi Muyo!: In Love
Ranma 1/2: The Movie 2, Nihao My Concubine
Street Fighter II The Animated Movie
Off the top of my head. Given some time, I could really spit out a list.

Favorite Traditionally Animated Disney Movie: Aladdin
Favorite Computer Animated Disney Movie: Monsters Inc.
Favorite Traditionally Animated Non-Disney Movie: Spirited Away
Favorite Computer Animated Non-Disney Movie: Shrek

Other favorites are Emperor's New Groove and anything by Pixar except A Bug's Life (if you're gonna make a movie about bugs, give them six legs). I hope to work for Pixar someday.

*Drtooth* · 12-05-2003, 12:17 PM

Well... as for my favorite I'd have to say Nightmare Before X-mas most definately!

Ninjatron · 12-05-2003, 03:34 PM

No one has mentioned the Iron Giant? Give me a break!
That's one of the most incredible films I've ever seen.

Castle in the Sky is one of my favourites as well.

EVERYTHING.

The entire freakin' movie is a work of pure brilliance. And if I really have to write out a list, then obviously you haven't seen it.

Sayonara.

*Dr. Doom* · 12-05-2003, 04:22 PM

It was quite good.......

My favorite is Cowboy Bebop, tho, regardless. Onna the best examples of animation you'll ever see.

*That Matt Guy* · 12-05-2003, 04:22 PM

The Iron Giant was indeed a brilliant movie. My only problem with it though, was the fact that an A-Bomb blew him to pieces and he was able to fix himself (or was in the process) but he was never able to fix that dent in his head.

*Dr. Doom* · 12-05-2003, 04:24 PM

No, he did eventually, I think..like when he freaked out at all the tanks and ****...unless it went back, I dunno....
