This thread had me thinking for a long while. I was away (at work) all day and I was all ready to be the first to post Yellow Submarine... guess not. But still... a great flick. So many moments...

Here's a shout out to some of my favorite moments in animation:
- "Dance of the Hours" from Fantasia - some of the best physical comedy ever committed to film. Inspired. - "Pink Elephants On Parade" - Beautifully surreal sequence from Dumbo, one that fascinated me so much as a child, I insisted on staying at the theater for a second viewing. - "Eleanor Rigby" from Yellow Submarine - The melancholy song and the xeroxed photo animation combined to make me get all weepy, but in a really nice way. There was so much more to this wonderful film, but that sequence stuck with me the most. - "Bear Necessities" from The Jungle Book - I was three years old, and this is the moment I fell in love, with animation, with movies, with music, basically with life. I remember it to this day. - "Goodbye Blue Sky" from Pink Floyd The Wall - The Gerald Scarfe animation for this film was scary, poetic and perfectly suited to the somber, narcissistic narrative of this concept album on film. I was expecting to see more of this sort of serious visual treatment of music in films, but it never really happened. - "This Is Halloween" - I knew that The Nightmare Before Christmas had me in its spell from moment one. This number still excites me. These are obviously all tied to musical moments, and I'm not even considering full features (or even shorts) here. I could go on for days. |

The scene that first comes to mind is the Little April Shower sequence in Bambi.

Three I like from Ghibli:
Dormant Laputa Robot reawakens and seemingly runs amok - havoc ensues -- in Castle in the Sky. The Forest Spirit heals Ashiitaka's* gun-shot wound in Princess Mononoke and Shakira* falls through the proverbial looking glass as dusk falls on the Bathhouse town and everything she has ever known is magically and devastatingly transformed - in Spirited Away * I have no idea how to spell these characters' names. |

The first Wow moment for me as a child was "The Aristocats" were the Tiffany lampshade casts multi-coloured hues all over the cats while they're playing music. I haven't seen it since, so i',m a little hazy. Is this during "Everybody wants to be a cat"?

One of my favorite pieces is Porky In Wackyland, an awesome Bob Clampett cartoon, that I loved so much I got a souvenir plate featuring the Wackyland sign - "It Can Happen Here"

But do Chihiro's hips lie?
For NA: Shakira (Pop Music artist) did a song called Hips Don't Lie
