Loves your list, bitsandpieces! And personally, I did not enjoy Sinbad or Joseph: King of Dreams at ALL. :stuck_out_tongue: They were no masterpieces.

1.)Prince of Egypt
2.)How to Train Your Dragon
3.)Kung Fu Panda
4.)The Road to El Dorado
5.)Megamind

And I’ve seen all of them except for the Aardman movies. I’m not that ignorant; these are just the only ones I can sit through without getting the urge to kill the director. If I ranked the rest of them, people would be mad at mew, even on a Pixar forum.

#64
  1. Shrek (Sort of a guilty pleasure film, I still remember seeing it as a kid.)
  2. Megamind (This one really surprised me and I really liked it. Only thing I didn’t like was Space-Dad and the Minion’s voice bugged me a bit)
  3. Kung Fu Panda (Pretty decent, and amusing enough. I’m hoping the sequel can improve on the first)
  4. HTTYD (Something about it just didn’t connect with me. Its a good film, but I really wasn’t into it)
  5. Madagascar (Honorary mention, its a lousy film all around, but I liked it in 5th grade so it gets to be on the list)

The rest are all pretty awful. I’m not going to judge the hand-drawn ones though, I either haven’t seen them or haven’t seen them in a long time.

#65

Nice list, Reaper! :smiley:

#66

As of now, KFP is my favorite Dreamworks movie, but I have a strong feeling that it can change after viewing Kung Fu Panda 2.

#67

I love Kung Fu Panda, and eagerly anticipate the sequel. But Dragon owns my soul in the animated-not-under-the-Disney-conglomerate category. :stuck_out_tongue: 8D

#68

OK, here we go! :smiley:

  1. How To Train Your Dragon
  2. Kung Fu Panda
  3. Megamind
  4. Shrek
  5. Monsters Vs. Aliens

I presume this list excludes any films produced during the Aardman partnership? If not, I’d have to sneak Wallace & Gromit and Flushed Away into my list - I adore those movies! ;-p

#69

Great list, Effluvium! :smiley:

#70

Here is an updated list of my top 5.

  1. Kung Fu Panda 1 & 2

3.Road to Eldorado

4.Chicken Run

5.Sherk

6.Prince of Egypt

7.Sherk 2

8.Kung Fu Panda

9.Kung Fu Panda 2

10.Spirit

11.Bee Movie

12.Shark Tale
That’s ranking the ones I’ve seen.

#72

No one has ranked this that high! What about it do you like?

#73

I liked how adult this was (even though I own this movie I have only watched like twice and that was when I was like six). They had like a conspiracy theory and it was just interesting.

Looking back at it and comparing it to say Kungfu Panda movies (which I enjoy) Antz had an edge that wasn’t too out there. Plus it is one of the few animated movies I heard the word damn in :laughing: .

#74

Nice lists everyone!

To be fair, the only thing in Antz I really liked was the environments. You know I love convincing backgrounds. :laughing: Didn’t really care about the characters though. Excepts the wasps, they were pretty funny.

#75

I’d like to say that only number one is really Pixar quality. I have to watch it over and over to catch all the detail and humor.

  1. The Curse of the Were-Rabbit: Absolutely hilarious movie. I love the charm and detail of the claymation. One of my all-time favorite films. Nick Park is a genius, and I love the originality of the story. Plenty of great gags too, as usual in his films. I want this on bluray! It’d go great with the rest of the episodes…
  2. Bee Movie: The title itself is clever, but the puns and jokes come so rapidfire you have to watch it a couple more times. But NOT in a row. Dreamworks films tend to be unwatchable within short periods of time of each other. Even the hilarious wit of Jerry Seinfeld and Matthew Broaddrick can’t fix that.
  3. Chicken Run: Same as Curse of the Were-Rabbit, this is a hilarious and detailed movie. I love the
  4. Flushed Away: I thought this movie looked so dumb it would be funny, but the Aardman films seem to take the cake as far as Dreamworks goes. I love this movie to death, especially Roddy. xD
  5. The Prince of Egypt: I loved this movie as a kid. So many memories. It’s great 2D animation, and fun to watch a Biblical story done well.
  6. Over the Hedge: For a Dreamworks film, this was pretty cute. It’s visually interesting, and there’s Steve Carrell. Probably one of the best-looking Dreamworks films. And if you don’t count the Aardman as part of Dreamworks, then one of my favorite Dreamworks as well.
  7. Shrek: The original was admittedly funny and attention-keeping. I really like it. But they got too carried away with the sequels.
  8. Shark Tale:It’s not a Finding Nemo rip-off. As substandard as Dreamworks films are, they aren’t generally rip-offs of Pixar films. It’s interesting and has some pretty funny gags. Plus… Robert DeNiro, you know. Haha.
  9. Megamind: It was a great plot with bad execution. Even Tina Fey couldn’t save this one. It was full of cliches and unoriginal humor. I may have laughed twice through this. Metroman or whatever his name was should have just died. That ruined it officially I think.
  10. Shrek 2: Just not that interesting. As a kid, this was a great movie. And it wasn’t bad for a Dreamworks sequel. But it just wasn’t amazing like Pixar can do with Toy Story 2 or Cars 2.
  11. Spirit: Just… Didn’t do it for me. But I guess I’m not a horse person. Different strokes. This is probably a better movie than Shrek 2 and Megamind, but I didn’t enjoy it as much.

I haven’t seen the rest except for Madagascar, which I forgot and am now too lazy to add it. It was slightly better than Shark Tale I think though. Oh, and Shrek 3, which might as well be called Drek 3.

2.)HtTYD

4.)Kung Fu Panda
5.)Road To El Dorado

And I’m done. I’ve seen them all, except the Aardman features, but you don’t want my opinion if you like the others, trust me.

#79

You should watch the Aardman features. Its been a while since I saw them, but I remember them being very good. Except Flushed Away, which was bad enough that Aardman won’t work with Dreamworks anymore.

#80

I would like to see them. But it’s hard to persuade my parents to rent animated movies. Especially stop motion. :frowning:
