From Woody to Wall-E: The Best CGI Animated Movies

From the Dead Bolt:

Who knew back in 1982 while we were geeking out over the light-cycle races in Tron
that, one day, computer-generated imagery would completely transform
Hollywood filmmaking and, in particular, the world of feature film
animation? During the ’80s, all we knew computers were good for was
Global Thermonuclear War or a nice game of chess, but CGI technology
soon revolutionized the world of special FX and opened up a whole new
world of 3D animation that quickly (and, some would argue, sadly) began
replacing traditional 2D hand-drawn animation as the preferred medium
for big-screen animated features. In 1995, the first full-length,
completely CGI-animated movie was released - an obscure little cult
movie called Toy Story - and, since then, Hollywood has never looked back.
