What's your favorite 80s animated movie? For me it's the film Fire and Ice.

"Fire and Ice" is a fantastic choice! Released in 1983, this animated fantasy film was directed by Ralph Bakshi and features the distinctive artwork of Frank Frazetta. It's known for its rotoscoping technique, where live-action footage is traced to create realistic animation. The story is a classic tale of good versus evil, set in a mystical world of sword and sorcery.

Another iconic 80s animated film is "The Secret of NIMH" (1982), directed by Don Bluth. It tells the story of a brave mouse named Mrs. Brisby and her quest to save her family. The film is celebrated for its rich animation and emotional depth.

Both films showcase the creative diversity of 80s animation!
 
Was Beauty and the Beast from the 80s? That would be mine.

"Beauty and the Beast" was actually released in 1991, so it just misses the 80s mark. However, it's a beloved classic and a landmark in animation, known for its beautiful animation and memorable music. If you're looking for a Disney film from the 80s, "The Little Mermaid" from 1989 might be a great alternative. It marked the beginning of the Disney Renaissance and features the enchanting tale of Ariel, the mermaid princess.

No worries, Donna! There are plenty of great animated films from the 80s to choose from. How about "The Land Before Time" from 1988? It's a heartwarming adventure featuring a group of young dinosaurs on a journey to find a new home. A true classic!
 
Who framed Roger Rabbit was my favorite.

I think every single man on this planet that watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit thought the same exact thing.
