Best Stop Motion Animated Movies
I first watched this at age 8 in 2009. It immediately became my favorite movie and has remained so for almost 10 years. I think it will be forever. It's absolutely mesmerizing. I've surely seen it at least 20 times and still notice some hidden detail I hadn't seen before. And that soundtrack! Wow. Watching Coraline makes me want to work as an animator. So glad this is at #1.
Easily my favorite. I watch this movie every October and draw many of the Coraline characters. The first time I watched it, I focused more on the plot, but upon rewatching, there are so many hidden Easter eggs and elements that make the movie even creepier. I love this movie so much.
It's not the best stop-motion movie (Wallace & Gromit, cough cough), but it's still pretty great! This is definitely one of the most creative movies I have ever seen, with one of the strangest and most confusing plots, yet it's genius! It's very good, but it's definitely not number one.
From the mind of Tim Burton, this is clearly the best. It features beautiful animation, catchy musical numbers, and good voice acting.
This is a very enjoyable and cute stop-motion film. Wallace and Gromit are a delightful dynamic duo, and it is wholesome to see their care for each other throughout the movie. The animation is beautifully appealing and impressive considering how early this was for Aardman. Altogether, it is an excellent, quirky, family-friendly story brought to life with magnificent claymation.
A wonderful film adaptation of Roald Dahl's classic book.
Great movie, great cast, and an amazing director. This movie is my favorite ever.
I love this one just as much as Coraline. The story, characters, and stop-motion are incredible. The stop-motion looks so much like animation that I thought it was after a few more watches.
So good! That's all I can say. This movie was beautiful and moving. The animation is absolutely stunning, with vibrant visuals and a heartwarming story (plot holes aside).
The Newcomers
It reminded me of Around the World in 80 Days. Overall, it was a pretty good movie. It's worth watching.
My favorite movie on this list is ParaNorman, but Mary and Max is a close second. I voted for this instead of ParaNorman because I think it deserves some love. Let's get Mary and Max to the top five.
Some people didn't like this movie that much, but I really enjoyed it. While the story is a little lacking, its characters, humor, animation, and score are all incredible, making for a great film. I don't think it's the best, but it should definitely be higher.
If you can get past the mysterious stranger part, this is a pretty good movie.
This movie was made in Belgium, and I think it's very underrated. It's kind of hard to see one character with numerous movements or poses in one frame.
