There is something to be said about the calming, smile-inducing power of animated films. My husband and I sat glued to Ice Age 2:The Meltdown thanks to ITV2 this weekend. We enjoyed every second, laughed at every possible opportunity like five year olds and felt like we’d taken a batch of happy pills afterwards. It got me thinking of the many animated films I’ve enjoyed in recent years, much more so than ones I enjoyed as a child and I’m sure most of the humour would fly straight over a ten year old child’s head, so…go my children and enjoy the wonderful world of animation (well, mainly the world of Disney Pixar!)
A Bugs Life
Finding Nemo
Monsters Inc
The Incredibles
Toy Story
Ice Age
Flushed Away – has to get the award for the most adult orientated humour - “It's just that curry you had last night, Spike. I'm the same, I've got a bum like the Japanese flag.” (Whitey)
Chicken Run
Shrek
There are plenty more…I vote we replace the intelligent book library in the office with a library of animated DVDs!
