Any Disney movie that's not Nightmare Before Christmas, Toy Story, Finding Nemo (which was good, but really overrated), or Monsters Inc.
Others:

And...um... I'll come up with some more later.

I agree. I love the first movie, I thought it was great. The 2nd one was so so..but then the third was just irritating. Now, here we are at #10 and they've ruined it for me.

How about Disney releasing all of those sequels for their classic animated movies on video?

[Reply #9 on:]

There was some freakin weird movie I saw when I was a kid called "Happily Ever After" or something generically sappy like that--and all I remember about it was thinking it sucked.

And after reading the book I thought the animated version of "Watership Down" was a gigantic turd in the shower drain.  And that "Brother Bear" movie coming out looks like a barf-fest.

And I HATED the animated Secret of Nimh, I HATE movies that put evil and death into something that ALREADY HAD A GOOD STORY and didn't need it at all. I mean, I love evil and death just as much as your next drunken beaner, but The Secret of Nimh book was SO CUTE and the movie sucked.

And I also dislike the flip-off icon. Once again, I love flipping people off as much as the next deranged college student, but for some reason the thing just irks me.

I heard "The pebble and the Penguin" stank something awful, but I never saw it.  Anyway, I believe that both the best and worst in animation comes right out of Japan, so I'll say "Demon City Shinjuku" which was so cliche that I almost screamed and "Big Wars."  Another visually well made, yet horribly unoriginal film that totally overused anime's blonde-hair-syndrome cliche.

I just remembered.  "Quest for Camelot."  Why Warner Brothers felt in nesiccary to emulate a disney film with carbon-copy characters, plot out of mad libs and songs so horrible and unsingable that they could make Rosanne Arnold sound good I will never know.

I forget what the movie is called, but there's this one anime film about some demons in some abandoned modern city. There's our badass hero and our vulnerable heroine. Like 15 minutes into it, after the first fight, our heroine gets her shirt ripped off. Next frame (after the fight), it's completely in tact. That's when I turned it off. Stupid.

Heh. I love those badly made Hentai Movies.

Ralph Bakshi's Wizards.  Best thing about it is the box art.  Otherwise, it's got the cheapest rotoscoping I've ever seen (footage was lifted from Zulu, El Cid and Patton), cost-cutting at every turn (as characters move, you can see the edges of the cells they're painted on moving with them!), an ending that undercutts the whole meaning of the story, and gratuitus, disturbingly prominent nipples on the female heroine.

Runner-up: Ralph Bakshi's Lord of the Rings.  I hate you, Ralph Bakshi.

EDIT: Actually, that's a little strong.  I've never even met the guy.  I hate your work, Ralph Bakshi.

[Reply #14 on:]

I liked the Secret of NIMH movies. I thought they were good. I hate the Road to El Dorado or some shit like that.

[Reply #15 on:]

I hate Disney released sequels too.... It's like we'll pump out a fairly well done cartoon movie and then rip you out of your money by making some cheapass cartoon on video and selling it as a sequel...  Not that I like Disney cartoons, but more that I dislike their sequels >:

[Reply #16 on:]

I hate all non-computer new disney movies that came out after the Lion King. They just went really sucky.

That's funny. I read an interview he gave with The Onion, and he basically tried to say that he personally saved cartooning. That he was the best, blah blah blah. Also, I have to blame him for John Kascuficay (whatever), for giving us the overrated Ren and Stimpy.

Yeah, I think Ren and Stimpy is overrated.

In the Future: Land Before Time 1,902: Terrorists Attack the Dinosaurs!

[Reply #19 on:]

I'm also going to go on record and say I hate every WB cartoon movie ever made (or WB movies based on cartoons).
Space Jam sucked...to the max.

[Reply #20 on:]

Land Before Time 1,903: The Land After Time 

I didn't like A Bug's Life, I think that was just going back to what made Disney suck in the first place. And of course, I can barely stand to watch a disney film today unless its a pixar film.

[Reply #21 on:]

The worst animated film I've seen is Fist of The North Star.  I didn't like the story or the animation.  I watched the whole thing, but it was almost torture to finish it.

[Reply #22 on:]

I hate the movie Antz,I had to turn that dumb movie off after seeing 15 mins.

[Reply #23 on:]

I hate Hey Arnold, so I 'd probably hate the movie too.

Urusei Yatsura "Annoying Aliens" if I remember correctly): Never seen it, but heard bad things about it. It's supposedly a slapstick karaoke anime.

[Reply #24 on:]

Bakshi's Lord of the Rings, what a disgrace.

Hey, I was just about to say "The Pebble And The Penguin", probably the sappiest, crappiest, and er, unhappiest(?) piece of shit to ever come from the animater's hand. Aside from the ho-hum story, the two-cel animation and the truly horrific dialogue, try listening to the Barry Manilow soundtrack. More corny than Kellogg's entire output, It'll have you tearing off your ears Da-Vinci style within seconds. A truly terrible film. Oh, and while Return To Camelot may have been a pile of steaming dung as well, the same company (Warner Bros) went on to make the rather wonderful (apart from the ending) The Iron Giant next, so that's a pretty good redemption if you ask me!!

[Reply #26 on:]

Like the lion king, one of the best animated movies of our time, was degraded when disney released a sequal straight to video...

[Reply #27 on:]

I also hate The Quest for Camelot.  Anastasia is also a horrible movie.  Also, I hate those direct-to-video Disney sequels as much as everyone else here.  I mean, was it really necessary to make a sequel to The Hunchback of Notre Dame?  Geez!

[Reply #29 on:]

Excuse me, am I wrong, or are you saying you like karaoke anime?

[Reply #30 on:]

I like Hey Arnold the show, but I really dislike the animation on it. Its sloppy and poorly drawn and I notice mistakes and bad animation errors each time I watch it. I've not seen the Hey Arnold movie, but if the animation is anything like it is in the regular show, then it'd probabaly get my vote as worst animated movie

i hate the anime version of metropolis. visually, it's damn impressive (the backgrounds and the architecture) but the story is cliche-laden and i just didn't like the characters in general.

i hate every generic wb/disney movie (anastasia, 101 dalmatians, whatever) - you can easilly swap around all characters and nobody would notice.
as for the sequels to movies disney puts out on video - those are beyond discription.
i try to avoid both the generic movies and the video-sequels.

but there's one animated movie that has earned my very own personal hate: bambi.
what is it with parents and stores (kid's corner with tv, anyone?) thinking that all kids like bambi? i always hated it.
bambi is a fucking crybaby, thumper looks like some sorta epileptic who should join a hardcore/metal band with a foot as fast as his (he doesn't need a double-pedal, that's for sure), the story is overly emotional and the way it's drawn is worse than super-deformed kawaii anime shit.
and boy, how i hate the music.
i realize that i've just criticized a "classic" and that it's a sacrilege and that i'll burn in hell and that my first-born will die from cancer of the ass or something.
but frankly i don't care.
i just fucking hate the movie and i always have.

Bambi: Most.overrated.Disney.movie.o f.all.time (I hate doing that word.word.etc thing but it's really necessary in this case).
If this movie had been made during the 80's and by different company (and still keeping all of the elements from the Disney version) it would've just been another "Discount box, ultra-cutey, mindless kid's movie" (like KissyFur, The Fun-time Gang, etc.), but since it was made by Disney in an era where all cartoons were either made by Warner Bros. or Disney, it became this hyped-up animated phenomena.
I saw first this movie when I was a teen and I hated it. My friends were all acting like Bambi's mother dying was this huge tradegy and not the funny sympathy-begging scene it really was. I was dumbfounded that they found it so sad. Pathetic.

I agree with all of the other posts. Straight-to-video = lame, sequels = lame, movies based on tv shows = lame, Bakshi/Kricfalusi = lame.

But we're all forgetting one important shitty film. 8 Crazy Nights. Thank you.

Was that the one that got halfway through Two Towers before it just stopped, and the second half was never done because the first half was just so incedibly, undeniably awful?

Because I was going to say that.

And Ninja Scroll was just plain old bad.  "The only cure for the poison is to have hot naked sex with the woman who kills with just a touch!"  Come on, that's just lame.

[Reply #37 on:]

Oh, how about Bakshi's adult version of Roger Rabbit, Cool World?  Krakatoa, that was an awful film, and I hope that he decides to give up his ink, before he makes an even more horible movie that totals his career.

[Reply #38 on:]

I hate the Return of Jafar. Worst Disney sequel ever! Yes, you have Don Castellaneta as the Genie, but Robin Williams is still better. And as with many direct-to-video stuff, their production qualities are worse.

And I enjoyed watching the Land Before Time and even part 2 when I was a kid. But now how much can you milk the franchise for more sequels? They're probably finished doing Land Before Time X7 by now.

That's because nobody actually saw it.  Are you admitting that you saw this movie?
