8 Ball Bunny -- didn't find a decent YT of this, but damn did I feel the surge of memories, I couldn't believe how much empathy it elicited from me (well, there *is* the cute as hell penguin).

'Bolero' segment

oh and that's
dir. Bruno Bozzetto
1976, Italy

Ir's so good! It also made me cry! And get high!

'allegro' is amazing!

Will watch Allegro but I guess I should watch Fantasia first. (Was going to before the poll but didn't manage to get round to it.)

yay allegro! i didn't vote and i figured it wouldn't get in without mine so gj. the valse triste segment still makes me sob just to think about it

It has some sad stuff, it has some trees made of boobs.

the idea that any aardman animation thing belongs on a list of the best anything is so bizarre, to me

I've now got "Animal Farm! Animal Farm!" stuck in my head to the tune of Beethoven's 5th. This is going to take some shaking.

I love that illustration/still - I should prob put Jumping on my list, then

wow that's great. shame about the shitty youtube quality though as the drawing looks top-notch.

if you're seriously lazy skip to 5:50 in the gilliam for the crucial section.

Ha, I'm sure I'd already seen that Gilliam somewhere back in the mists of time. Pretty great.

Thank you ILX for sharing these last two films, which I quite very very much enjoyed.

Netflix version is unwatchable, unfortunately.

'kells' is very pretty and kind of breathtaking in spots but the story's kinda not that great IMO.

The story was fine but the visual style was what really stood out.

Fine animation but I don't get why it started Disney's comeback.

It was well enough recieved, which was a pleasant change, but Disney is Back! didn't really start until Beauty and the Beast.

Kells left me completely wrecked at the end, tears streaming down my face.

Haven't seen it, but now I'm curious - - What's the deal with the netflix version, exactly?

No idea! I saw it in the theater.

SD and herky-jerky.

blargh! Well, I'll catch it sometime somehow then... I'm definitely curious now.

i feel the same. vikings were the best.

Kells was visually lovely and certainly respectable but it lacked even a hint of a pulse.
