  • Cars -definitely doesn't deserve the title of "Pixar's worst movie." I think it only got that label because it followed The Incredibles (which, even though I think it's overrated, was a tough act to follow). It had a nice story, fun characters, and cute humor.
  • The Prince Of Egypt
  • The Rescuers Down Under -I remember watching this movie up in my grandmother's third floor apartment with my older brother every summer growing up. It just might have been my first introduction to animal rights, in a way.
  • Teamo Supremo -the reason I think this one is so disliked is because so many people thought it was a rip-off of The Powerpuff Girls, which I don't get at all. Yeah it's kind of weird, but it's a cute show overall.

- Legend of the Guardians: didn't deserved the critical hate that it got. Apparently critics freak out at animation that isn't comedy.

- Beowulf: this was awesome on IMAX and had probably the best 3-D effects I've ever seen on a movie. Also, it had a good story.

- Battle for Terra: this was actually a good independent feature. But apparently Lionsgate only likes dumb comedic animation (Happily N'Ever After, Alpha and Omega).

- Hoodwinked: this movie was hilarious, with Patrick Warburton stealing the show as the Wolf.

- Blinky Bill: I loved this show when I was younger. I always was up at 7:30 am to watch this on the local Fox affiliate.

- Fun and Fancy Free: this has Mickey and the Beanstalk. That means it's cool.

- Allegro Non Troppo: a parody of Fantasia is always welcome.

- God, The Devil and Bob: bizarre concept but it works well. Luckily, the whole series is on DVD.

- The Brak Show: I know that it has a good set of fans but Cartoon Network ended it too soon and they often seem to overshadow it.

Also, Persepolis. Wonderful, funny, heart-warming story.

At least the first season of Jimmy Neutron which includes the The Movie it was based on, where it was mainly Jimmy doing very inane things For Science! before it became another Teen Drama.

Ah, Meet The Robinsons! I love that movie, even if it doesn't really live up to its full potential. What can I say? I'm a sucker for Adorkable heroes.

I wouldn’t say Allegro non troppo is underrated, as it always got consistently good reviews. Though it has become somewhat obscure over the years (is it even on DVD?), so perhaps to some viewers “lesser-known” = “underrated.”

Unless he's reviewing Never Ending Story III or The Room.

For anyone person who has HBO Family am I the only person who loved the HBO Original Animated Special "The Sissy Duckling" its a unique take on The Ugly Duckling story from 1999. It's 39 minutes long and the song "Time Takes Time" is a beautiful song.

Another series that I find underrated is also from HBO Family "Storybook Musicals" series. I really loved the musical take on "Peter Rabbit".
