IndieWire's the Best Animated Films of the 21st Century Ranked

"Pixar and Studio Ghibli tend to spring to mind first when discussing great animation, but there's a world beyond those two giants. Animated films have grown ever more artful and affecting as more and more folks realize that it's never just been a medium for kids, with studios and indies alike creating stop-motion marvels, hand-drawn standouts, and CGI spectacles."
