So? What do you think?

Personally, I think this is debatable list, but I find it american heavy. There's a lot of quality animation over the world that isn't in the list, granted some of it is not necessarily as universally accessible as say Snow White (ie. Les Triplettes de Belleville). But where are some Japanese classics like Spirited Away, Akira, Tokyo Godfathers, or Grave of the Fireflies?

Every such list is debatable.

I am not good at giving points or make such lists but somewhere in the Top 25 would be the Shrek (part 1).

I don't where they got their list but I think an honest survey would also make "101 Dalmatians" in the top 25.

Somtheing around the 13th place maybe?

   I was going to officially protest but I decided to check on IMDB and I realized something I have never noticed before.  The 1996 movie with Glenn Close is called "101 Dalmatians" but the 1961 animation is actually called "One hundred and one dalmatians".

I had never made the distinction and I rapidly looked at the list to see if "101" was there.

[Najemikon]

What you have all said is valid. Any list like this is debatable. But I am SO glad to see Wererabbit in there! Very underestimated. I adored Ratatouille, but it isn't a huge leap from Wallace and Gromit for that earlier film to be largely forgotten.

[DJ Doena]

Although only semi-animated I miss Roger Rabbit in this list.

If this list is "American heavy" I would like to know what a top list would be without any American movies in it. How about it my international friends.
