Top 10 Most Beautiful Animated Films of All Time
I have loved the art of animation for as long as I can remember. It's something I studied in school, and I would have loved to be an artist working on animated film projects, but life obviously had different plans for me. Animation is still in my blood, though, and watching great animated films is something that I will always enjoy.
Cinefix has released a video giving us a list of what they believe are the "Top 10 Most Beautifully Animated Films of all Time."
Whether it’s hand drawn or CGI the art of animation can stimulate our imagination and evoke our deepest emotions. These are our picks for the Top 10 Most Beautifully Animated Films of all Time.
The films listed in the video are truly beautiful, and if you haven't seen any of them, you need to check them out. I included the list of films featured in the video below the embed. One of my personal favorites in terms of incredible animation didn't make the list. Disney's 1940 film Pinocchio is a ridiculously magnificent animated movie. It is often overlooked, but the stuff the animators pulled off in that movie back then was simply stunning.
You can't really argue with the film they slipped into the number one slot. That movie was amazing. See what it is in the video below. After you go through the list, let us know what animated films would be on your list.
