I won't need to say out loud that this decade has seen quality slippage due to managerial disattachment from reality; however, at least the future is starting to look a little brighter now that John Lasseter's in control of Feature Animation, with upcoming adapations The Princess and the Frog (with John Musker and Ron Clements behind the helm again) and Rapunzel (Glen Keane's directing debut) looking interesting. Anyway, which gets your vote out of:
-The Emperor's New Groove, -Atlantis, the Lost Empire, -Lilo and Stitch, -Treasure Planet, -Brother Bear, or -Home on the Range
(I don't count the CGI features subsequently released in this; I'm a purist at heart)
I haven't seen all of them yet, but of those I have, Atlantis is probably the best. It may take on water, so to speak, in a couple of places, but it accomplishes what it sets out to achieve, and that's basically all you can ask for in a film. Plus the visuals are pretty strong; underwater shots are just so well rendered.

Beavis and Butthead was my favorite animated movie of all times. This guy I knew from college was working on a fishing boat north of the Finland/Russia border half Fins and half Russians and then him. The whole time these two russians kept talking about this videotape. When they went into port the 2 russians walked 20 miles too get a vcr and then they came back to the ship and put in the tape. My college friend thought 'man this must be the greatest porno of all time'. It was Beavis and Butthead on the vcr tape.
