However Akira, is genious and was really responsible for Manga finally breaking into popular culture in the west. But there will always be bias in these things.
22	mawnck Fri 9/11/2009 8:34a	>>What I really don't get is the value of lists like this.<< (1) Discussions like these. (2) Heads up on stuff you may have missed and really ought to see. :-)
23	mawnck Fri 9/11/2009 8:39a	>>Strongly agree that it is very lopsided toward newer films. Are 2 movies released *just this year* really worthy at this time to be included in the top 10 animated movies of "all time"?<< +1 on the movies from this year (but especially Up). TK, which earlier flicks would you like to see on the list instead?
24	ToonKirby Sat 9/12/2009 4:51a	Little Mermaid, Nightmare Before Christmas, Finding Nemo, Snow White, Cinderella, 101 Dalmatians, Lady & the Tramp, Sleeping Beauty, Howl's Moving Castle, Wallace & Gromit: Curse of the Were-Rabbit, Lilo & Stitch, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Toy Story 2, Tarzan, My Neighbor Totoro, Millennium Actress ... to name a few (and in no particular order).
25	Dabob2 Sat 9/12/2009 10:15a	Snow White and Fantasia are kind of inexplicable omissions; I'd substitute Finding Nemo for the somewhat overrated Incredibles, Toy Story 2 for Toy Story 1 (yeah, the first was a breakthrough, but the second is just plain better), and I'd put Yellow Submarine in there too. And (though it might betray my own "seen it recently" bias), maybe Sita Sings the Blues.
26	ecdc Sat 9/12/2009 11:24a	Agree 100% w/ Dabob2. I very much like the Incredibles, but the writing is a bit weak at parts and falls flat. The pacing is off in some segments too. Finding Nemo is much, much better, IMO. Also agree w/ Toy Story 2 over Toy Story.
27	mawnck Sat 9/12/2009 6:36p	>>to name a few<< All but 5 of which are also recent. ;-) Good choices, though.
28	Kar2oonMan Sat 9/12/2009 8:51p	>>Sita Sings the Blues<< Far, far better than South Park. I love Sita Sings the Blues.
29	ToonKirby Mon 9/14/2009 1:30a	>All but 5 of which are also recent. ;-)< Depends on how you define recent ... :) For example, "Little Mermaid" is 20 years old (!), not what I would call recent.
30	mawnck Mon 9/14/2009 6:58a	>>Depends on how you define recent<< I was going with ECDC's "prior to 1985" (post 10). Regardless, it appears we agree that Little Mermaid shoulda been there.
