I haven’t seen many animated films this year (I definitely plan on checking out Flow, Memoir of a Snail, and Wallace & Gromit because I know they will all probably be nominated for Best Animated Feature at the Oscars along with Inside Out 2 and The Wild Robot but here is my ranking) 1. Transformers One (9/10) (I’m not the biggest Transformers fan and the first act kind of feels generic but the latter part of the film was phenomenal. The animation, score, action sequences, and vocal performances (especially from Brian Tyree Henry) were all stellar.) 2. Inside Out 2 (9/10) (It felt similar to the first in some ways and I knew how it would end but I still loved all of the new emotions (especially Anxiety) and the new things they introduced. I also thought the Hockey Camp storyline was also great. I don’t like it more than the first but I still loved it.) 3. The Wild Robot (9/10) (The animation is probably the best I’ve seen all year and I loved the score and voice acting. I thought the story was also wonderful. I thought the third act was probably the weakest but it was still good.) 4. Despicable Me 4 (5/10) (I thought this movie was very mediocre. There was too much going on and I think it shows how they have run out of ideas with this franchise. There were some scenes that were funny and I thought the ending would have been good if it was the end of the franchise but we know it’s probably not the end.)
My top 5 are Flow, Wild Robot, Memoir of a Snail, Inside Out 2, Kensuke’s Kingdom. Also enjoyed Piece By Piece. & I’ve heard really great things about an anime movie called Look Back
Great list honest forgot about so many of these movies coming out like despicable me 4 def agree with you on that, cant say many of the bottom 10 though, will be looking forward to seeing your review for the looney tunes movie awesome you got to see it early will def need to see flow but 100% agree about top 2
I'm just gonna say this about whether The Lion King live action stuff is animated or not: I think it both is and isn't animated On a technicality yeah sure but its also not meant to be animated at all so while you can count them as animated I don't think its fully fair for people to argue against people who don't include them as animated (as I don't myself personally)
Worst to best: Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie Despicable Me 4 Spellbound The Garfield Movie Mufasa: The Lion King Moana 2 Megamind vs the Doom Syndicate Transformers One Robot Dreams Piece by Piece The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim Kung Fu Panda 4 The Wild Robot Orion and the Dark Memoir of a Snail Flow Inside Out 2
