Worst Animated Films of All Time
Yes, even animations have there bad days and moments. For the past few years animations have become more and more common in terms of how many are released in a year. Animation is a tough competition between studios like Disney vs. DreamWorks - Toy Story vs. How to Train Your Dragon. These are great animations, here are the ones that are not so great. In fact these are straight up kid films that even kids may get bored of. Here they are and usually I say enjoy, but in this case, avoid these at all costs. These are in no particualr order.

- DirectorLawrence KasanoffStarsHilary DuffHaylie DuffCharlie SheenThe evil Brand X joins a supermarket that becomes a city after closing time.Well the one good thing to say about this film is it didn't make the Titanic seem like a joke. But however it does poorly use some iconic food mascots like Mr. Clean. Though not as insulting as insulting the Titanic. It still is bad in every other aspect. The animation is atrocious and the basis of the film is as bad as sitting on a pile fire ants and as painful. But you eyes suffer instead. The horror of it all!!!
- DirectorCamillo TetiStarsLisa RussoMark Thompson-AshworthGisella MathewsA Cinderella meets her Prince Charming on the ill-fated Titanic. Along for the ride are a rapping dog, other talking animals, and an assortment of wacky humans.And just when I thought the human couldn't get any more stupider we do. How in hell did anyone think the Titanic disaster of a film released last year needed another? But this one is worse. This is a rip off of a rip off of a film that is cringeworthy. Does this movie like the last have any redeeming quality in it? Hell no! It sickens me that these two poor excuses times three of entertainment ever was thought of being produced in the first place. This film is a disgrace to everyone especially the men, women, and children who lost they're lives in this tragic event. God Bless them all. This film can die in hell.
- DirectorOrlando CorradiKim Jun OkStarsGregory SnegoffFrancis PardeilhanJane AlexanderA grandfather mouse tells his grandchildren the "real" story of the Titanic disaster, including himself, evil sharks, a giant octopus, and an evil whaling scheme.When you insult a legendary historical event and the people that lost they're live on it is just as bad as it gets. This is one film that has nothing good in it. No positives can be said about a film that treat the event of the Titanic as a joke and nothing more. Oh and when you rip off James Cameron's Titanic that is a new low for these filmmakers. How this film was greenlit remains a mystery.
- DirectorMike DisaStarsHayden PanettiereGlenn ClosePatrick WarburtonRed Riding Hood is training in the group of Sister Hoods, when she and the Wolf are called to examine the sudden mysterious disappearance of Hansel and Gretel.Another pointless sequel to a decent original film. They couldn't stop at 1 could they? This is a prime example of studios going too far. When I watch a sequel to something I expect it to compliment the original, not drag it down. This is ugly, lazy, humorless, worthless, and unfortunately unnecessary.
- DirectorHoward E. BakerJohn FoxKyung Ho LeeStarsJohn Rhys-DaviesBruno AlexanderReedy GibbsOne fish must find his destiny to save his home and the love of his life from a bullying shark.Nice try, but this is nowhere near the greatness of Pixar or even DreamWorks, heck I'd rather watch Shark Tale then this. They tried but failed miserably.
- DirectorMark A.Z. DippéTaedong ParkStarsAudrey WasilewskiRob SchneiderJack MullinsTrained in the skills of sea power, Pi the fish can fight a shark, sink a squid or batter any random predator that ever threatens his friends and neighbors on the reef. Unfortunately, being the only hero in town can take its toll, especially when a group of sharks declares that the end of the reef is soon at hand.Are they trying to be Pixar? If they are then try a little bit harder then this. This is why Disney and DreamWorks are the only good animation companies because others just seem to fail. Why? Because they're not as good as Disney or DreamWorks. This film is a prime example.
- DirectorWill FinnDaniel St. PierreStarsLea MicheleKelsey GrammerDan AykroydShortly after a tornado rips through her Kansas home, Dorothy returns to Oz to save her friends from a villainous jester.What is with these films trying to one up Wizard of Oz? Stop it! You won't succeed. This was just a waste of time and money as it totally bombed the box office.
- DirectorCody CameronStarsMatthew J. MunnNika FuttermanMaddie TaylorBoog's friends rally to bring him home from a Russian traveling circus.What is with third installments? Do the people just not care when they get there? Oh I know why...$$$. Hopefully How to Train Your Dragon 3 will put that to rest for a little bit. Toy Story 3 proved you can make good third installmants if you care. This is just ugly.
- DirectorPhil RomanStarsRichard KindDana HillAnndi McAfeeCat and mouse duo Tom and Jerry reluctantly work together to save a young girl from her evil aunt.I cried when I watched this. Not because it was good, but I loved Tom and Jerry as a kid and this was just sad to see this be so bad.
- DirectorTrevor WallLisa OrtizStarsRob SchneiderHeather GrahamKen JeongWhen a real estate development invades his Arctic home, Norm and his three lemming friends head to New York City, where Norm becomes the mascot of the corporation in an attempt to bring it down from the inside and protect his homeland.One of the very few animated films to get a 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. Ouch! But what do you expect from a film that has polar bear voiced by Rob Schneider? Exactly!
- DirectorTony LeondisStarsT.J. MillerJames CordenAnna FarisGene, a multi-expressional emoji, sets out on a journey to become a normal emoji.This has got to be the worst film released by a major animation studio. Its considerably worse than Cars 2, Shrek the Third, Shark Tale, or Chicken Little.
- DirectorPeter LepeniotisStarsWill ArnettBrendan FraserLiam NeesonAn incorrigibly self-serving exiled squirrel finds himself helping his former park brethren survive by raiding a nut store, a location that also happens to be a front for a human gang's bank robbery.Luckily HTTYD 2 and The Lego Movie came out because this made me question the animation genre again that we adults shouldn't watch them.
- DirectorMichael ThurmeierGalen T. ChuStarsRay RomanoDenis LearyJohn LeguizamoWhen Scrat's acorn sends an asteroid to Earth, the Herd must find a way to stop the asteroid from hitting Earth with the help of a returning friend.I think its safe to say that everyone is fed up with the Ice Age films. Even the filmmakers seem tired of this franchise. Hopefully the slogan on the top of the image is true. So long Ice Age! I use to love you back in 2001 but now, just die please.
- DirectorJohn H. WilliamsStarsTom KennyZack ShadaPatrick WarburtonSpace Chimps 2: Zartog Strikes Back follows Comet, the cool techno chimp who longs to be taken seriously as a full-fledged space chimp. Comet journeys to the fantastical Planet Malgor and bonds with the adorable alien Kilowatt, living out his ultimate fantasy. However, it's time for Comet to prove himself when the feared alien ruler Zartog takes over Mission Control! Comet must show he has the right stuff, and join fellow chimps Ham, Luna and Titan, to save the day.When you get 0% on Rotten Tomatoes. There is no argument, your film sucked.
- DirectorTerry L. NossRichard RichStarsJason AlexanderMary SteenburgenReese WitherspoonIt's a high-flying adventure when Louie, a mute trumpeter swan, is given the gift of a trumpet, and finds his voice.Some people consider this a classic, but I'm not that generous.
- DirectorDon BluthGary GoldmanStarsMartin ShortJim BelushiAnnie GoldenHubie (Martin Short) must present his special pebble to Marina (Annie Golden) before the pebble festival is over, or lose his chance forever.And the film that killed Don Bluth's film studio. After this it bye bye to Don Bluth. He would return however under a new studio that lasted two films: Anastasia, and Titan A.E.
- DirectorDon BluthGary GoldmanDan KuensterStarsGlen CampbellChristopher PlummerSorrell BookeIn order to defeat the wicked Grand Duke of Owls, a young boy, transformed into a cat, teams up with a group of barnyard animals to find the rooster who can raise the sun.The beginning of Don Bluth's downfall. Not the worst he made but enough to jeopardize his film studio.
- DirectorDon BluthGary GoldmanStarsDom DeLuiseCloris LeachmanCharles Nelson ReillyAn evil Queen banishes a flower loving troll named Stanley (Dom DeLuise) to New York City, where he befriends two young children.After seeing this it is amazing that Don Bluth once worked for Disney. He had potential with The Secret of Nimh, and The Land Before Time. But now? No.
- DirectorJimmy HaywardStarsWoody HarrelsonOwen WilsonDan FoglerA pair of turkeys discover a time machine and decide to use it to travel to the first Thanksgiving, to take turkeys off the menu forever.I know this was meant to be for Thanksgiving, but in this case. No thank you.
- DirectorMark DindalStarsZach BraffJoan CusackGarry MarshallAfter ruining his reputation with the town, a courageous chicken must come to the rescue of his fellow citizens when aliens start an invasion.Disney thought The Black Cauldron was there worst film, this is ten times worse.
- DirectorJorge BlancoJavier AbadMarcos MartínezStarsDwayne JohnsonSeann William ScottJessica BielAn alien civilization is invaded by Astronaut Chuck Baker, who believes that the planet was uninhabited. Wanted by the military, Baker must get back to his ship before it goes into orbit without him.I appreciate people trying to do something different, but this became stale way too quickly.
- DirectorCal BrunkerStarsBrendan FraserSarah Jessica ParkerJessica AlbaAstronaut Scorch Supernova finds himself caught in a trap when he responds to an SOS from a notoriously dangerous alien planet, Earth.Escape from this movie, that what I wanted to do.
- DirectorJohn LasseterBradford LewisStarsOwen WilsonLarry the Cable GuyMichael CaineStar race car Lightning McQueen and his pal Mater head overseas to compete in the World Grand Prix race. But the road to the championship becomes rocky as Mater gets caught up in an intriguing adventure of his own: international espionage.This was the year Pixar became sick, very, very sick. The next wasn't too good either. But Cars 2, I congradulate it on being the worst Pixar film ever and yet.
- DirectorSteve 'Spaz' WilliamsStarsKiefer SutherlandJim BelushiEddie IzzardAn adolescent lion is accidentally shipped from the New York Zoo to Africa. Now running free, his zoo pals must put aside their differences to help bring him back.What was this piece of junk? A sad impersonation of Madagascar. Sorry Disney, but DreamWorks won this round.
- DirectorAnthony BellBen GluckStarsHayden PanettiereChristina RicciJustin LongTwo young wolves at opposite ends of their pack's social order are thrown together into a foreign land and need each other to return home, but love complicates everything.This is like Balto if it was a Romeo and Juliet story. But two times worse.
