Over the years I have attended most of the animated movies while they were in the theaters.  I have slowed down somewhat in the last few.   But I saw everyone listed.   I was surprised that wild robot was not on that list.

Seems like a bit of a stretch to call Deadpool and Dune Part 2 animated movies.  It would be more accurate to say that they are very heavy on the CG imagery.

I took that list to be the top ten movies over-all, live or animated, of which five are animated.

I wondered why they didn't note "Sonic" as animated, but it turns out it's a"live action" movie.

Yeah I definitely skimmed that headline. I feel like Sonic falls more into the same category as something like Roger Rabbit, I would consider both animated even though they have live action elements.
