Thought I'd throw in a small twist to the 'favourite films' lists. It's probably been done before, but these threads work on a rotor of sorts I guess.
So yes, what're your favourite animated films? Hand-drawn, stop-motion and computer animation are all fine of course...I'm going to find this hard when narrowing down Disney
I left out Japanese animations as they're notable enough almost as a genre of their own, plus I found it tough enough already
Notable Mentions: Shrek 2, Tangled, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, The Nightmare Before Christmas, Watership Down, Chicken Run, Wreck-It Ralph
10 - Sleeping Beauty (1959)
09 - The Iron Giant (1999)
08 - Mulan (1998)
07 - Shrek (2001)
06 - How to Train Your Dragon (2010)
05 - The Land Before Time (1988)
04 - Toy Story (1995)
03 - Rise of the Guardians (2012)
02 - WALL-E (2008)
01 - The Lion King (1994)

1) Jungle Book (one of the first and best animation i've watched)
2) A Bugs Life (awesome, underrated and was receiving more love than Toy Story 2 at the time, as far as i remember)
3) Shrek (Shrek and Donkey -never seen 2 characters have such good chemistry in an animated movie)
4) Toy Story (a classic)
5)Aladdin (just an all round great movie)
Jasper Morello
The Selfish Giant
The Tell Tale Heart

Seriously, I felt like the only kid who didn't like Pokemon.
Nice mention of The Prince of Egypt though!
And I'm glad to have seen so much love for The Iron Giant...it's a great film that often gets forgotten.

*Need to watch Frozen which I suspect will make it onto my list.
In no particular order (and with no numbers)
a. Up: If for nothing else the first 10 minutes.
b. Aladdin: It's not often a single voice performance makes an animated film
c. Toy Story (all of them): Yes I'm cheating, but they are the closest to a perfect trilogy ever.
d. The Nightmare Before Christmas: "What's This?"
e. Frozen: Genuinely, an instant classic. It's popular because it is good
f. Wallace & Gromit - The Curse of the Were-Rabbit: (Because The Wrong Trousers isn't a film)
g. The Incredibles: Still probably the best Pixar film (although the only misstep is Cars2)
h. Shrek: The law of diminishing returns kicks in rapidly after the first sequel
i. Despicable Me: (I think it's funnier. But 'Bottom')
j. The Hunchback Of Notre Dame: Seriously dark for a Disney film, and rarely shown
As an adult, I find the 'classic' Disneys don't stand up in the same way as the more modern films.
And we still get dross like 'Freebirds' thrown at unsuspecting kids... >:(
Don't like any others much, though I have not seen many of the very recent ones as for me they are all a bit samey.
Lady And The Tramp
The Fox And The Hound
Watership Down
Bambi
