Just because I can't get enough of these threads.

At any rate, I was going to do the greatest video game music ever, but I felt more compelled to do this thread since we just did a video game thread. If someone else wants to do a thread of that nature, though, then be my guest.

At any rate, this is self-explanatory as usual. Any feature-length animated films count. I'll let you guys define what counts as feature length, but for me it has to be at least an hour long so as not to count as a short film. With that said, I'm not putting any restriction on the amount of films you can nominate. Everyone just nominate whatever movies you want and we'll move forward from there.

Here are my nominations:

Summer Wars
The Lion King
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Wolf Children: Ame & Yumi
Redline
Toy Story 3
The Aventures of Tintin
Rurouni Kenshin: Trust & Betrayal
Felidae
Up
Monsters Inc.
Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker
Lupin III: Castle of Cagliostro
Ninja Scroll
South Park: Bigger, Longer, & Uncut
Futurama: Bender's Big Score

Shouldn't we retire MOTP since it won the last thread, though?
Life is not about the second chances. It's about a little mouse and his voyage to an exciting new land. That, my friend, is what life is.

Sir, do you have any Warrants?
I got their first CD, but you can't have it, motherfucker!

Good point. I just removed it as a nomination.

If I may make a suggestion, E-K, maybe we can have each match last a week, a la the Greatest Manga Competition, because that should give enough time for people to check out the movies they haven't seen. I think that would work really well for this competition, because movies, unlike tv shows or comics, take a relatively short amount of time to finish, and most of the movies that will be nominated should be able to be found online or at a local library.

Dr. Ensatsu-ken

Sure, I'm busy on weekdays, anyway, so that works better for me.

That said I have to assume that each person has watched a fair amount of these movies in the first place to show interest in participating, and one match a week is a bit too slow-paced for me, so I may just end up posting two matches at a time, in that case, just like how I did in the first round for the Greatest Video Game Ever thread. That seems pretty reasonable, to me.

Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on how you look at it), as Avaitor pointed out, since MotP won the last animated film tournament we had a few years ago, I have decided to exclude it from this competition, just like how Ninja Gaiden Black was excluded from the greatest video game thread and how Yu Yu Hakusho was excluded from the greatest anime thread.

I feel that it keeps the competition more interesting, that way. ;)
