The fact that it was only a drop and not even an honorable mention is just disappointing. Like Secret Of Nimh it contains dark themes including the death and grief at the death of a parent, the animation was fantastic for the time, and its subtle nuance regarding racial prejudices ( dinosaurs sticking to their own herds) and the hope that children might be able to do what their elders couldn’t when left to their own devices.

This list is a fantastic celebration of animation's ability to push boundaries and challenge norms. Films like 'The Secret of NIMH' and 'FernGully' not only offered a darker, more mature take on storytelling but also addressed complex themes that were unusual for their time. It's incredible to see how these movies, which might have been unconventional back then, paved the way for the rich, diverse storytelling we see in animation today.

It was certainly a part of brother bear, but I would argue the greater focus was on perspective, realizing that they were as frightening to the bears as the bears were to them. Big Hero 6 takes a more head on approach to grief, having Hiro learn how to cope with his brother’s death, and also how to keep his brother’s spirit alive through himself. Both good movies though.

How come The Swann Princess is not mentioned at all? Not only she was one of those princesses who basically saved herself, instead of waiting for rescue....but listen, there's more! She was literally groomed to marry Prince Derek, years of efforts and planning for both of those countries... And when he messed up and she said "Sorry, NO . I'm not marrying you if you only care about my looks", EVERYONE ACCEPTED THAT AND DOESN'T EVEN TRIED TO PUSH HER AGAINST HER WILL. The king only asked her what she was hoping for the prince to say. Also, the main villain didn't force her into marrying him, although that was his whole plan. He was trying to make her agree with it herself. THAT was one woman empowering and consent centered animated movie!

@@manuelorozco7760 I saw it as a character development. They knew eachother their whole life so even the "love on first sight" wasn't too unrealistic... I had that too once just like this: a sudden switch went on and I saw that person in a completely different light. But when Derek made Odette feel like he only care for her looks (because men are rarely that good with sweet words on the spot), she outed in a bit of rage, I think. But the hardship they faced brought them back together in the end. He was an idiot sometimes but who isn't. In the end, he would go above and beyond for her and that is what she wanted in the first place: for him to see her as a person.

What about Fantasia? That movie came out in 1940, and showcased how well animation and music go hand in hand, using classic music pieces like the Nutcracker Suite, and Night on Bald Mountain. Each segment were the most earliest forms of music videos, way before they were even such a thing. One of the segments in the movie, The Sorcerer's Apprentice, is also home to one of Mickey Mouse's most iconic appearances. The sorcerer's hat, red robe, and slippers. Who agrees that it should've been on the list?

Jumbo’s mother was taken away from we son and labeled as “mad” even though she was just protecting her son, and Jumbo is left alone even though he is just a baby.

IMO FernGully was not ahead of its time. The loss of the rainforest through destruction was a HUGE part of conversation at that time. It was a kind of the pop cultural save the world item that everyone talked about. The movie just captured it perfectly imo and just made a movie, a cartoon movie that captured a lot of the sentiment of the population.

My mom never cared for Shrek. She says that the people who made it were making fun of Walt Disney; which, in her book, is taboo.

I like how Ferngully tried to show that Humans have other ways of harming the environment than just pollution (like the experimentation of animals, as shown via Batty Koda) and, even if your efforts are ultimately a small part of attempting to save the environment, it will still show.

Megamind was ahead of its time because of Hal Stewart’s character, and when he got power like Metro Man. Frozen is another possible option due to Hans’ real intentions and deception of Anna which has happened frequently over the years.

Yet Shrek doesn't pay any tribute to their original actor, Chris Farley. He had the part, had his entire part recorded and then died, then Mike Myers replaced him as if nothing happened.

The son of the white mare should have been on this list. It was ahead of its time due to establishing itself as a form of art due to his psychedelic the animation was. This film from Hungary was severely underrated and it didn’t become more well known in the us until 2020
