The top ten animated films in Hollywood are as follows:
1. "Fantasia"
"Fantasia" produced and distributed by Disney Company is a milestone in the history of big-screen animation , in this magnificent movie, Disney focused on music rather than story content for the first time, using seven different but coherent music clips to express them with different forms of animation content, making it a Audiovisual concert.

2. "Bambi"
This is a movie that has influenced many animators. It is great not just because of its warm content and excellent graphics.
