"Animation" in technical parlance is not a genre and refers more to the process or a category. I guess this list refers to a type of movie; made with certain tools "Computer 3D Graphics Animation". I would still argue that since there are a growing number of movies that use this tool, and since the word genre is defined (for eg by Wikipedia) a having "vague categories with no fixed boundaries" and that "Genres are formed by sets of conventions, and many works cross into multiple genres by way of borrowing and recombining these conventions"... ...I believe more and more that the field fo 3D animation coming from America is developing a set of conventions. So, while Animation, even my usage, CG 3D Animation, is not a genre, but more a category like newspaper, or novel, a type of art form using a type of process, still there is a genre-specific differentiation between American 3D Animation and Japanese Animation; which I am still not so sure about. And perhaps I want to simply highlight the form AND content specific differentiation.

I was shocked that I have watched only 7 of them! Apart from these 7 which I thoroughly enjoyed, I also liked Beauty and the Beast and Barbie and the twelve dancing princesses. (None from Pixar) In Beauty and the Beast, I was surprised to see the movie making an impact on me even when I knew the story. I liked the characterization a lot. Barbie and the twelve dancing princesses was visually very appealing. The dances, the twirling and the flowing skirts - oh, it was a pleasure to watch.

All fiction (animation) needs art. And yet it also refers to a body of work that uses that type of art. To mr.noitall: (nice name) :)
