80s underrated cartoons

Like most things, as popularity increased as did the opportunity to develop franchises and increase revenue.

Many were considered to be quick cash grabs and have been forgotten over time. A number, though, have left an indelible mark on Hollywood. Below are 6 of the most noteworthy movies based on popular 80s cartoon shows.

My definition of "underrated" is an enjoyable movie that was either a box office failure at its time, received negative or mixed reviews, one that was only truly popular among a cult audience, or a lesser-known film to casual animated movie watchers.

For this list, I limited it to mainly family-friendly animated films. I also limited myself to only a few underrated Disney animated movies , because many of those films are too popular to be underrated. Danny Scott Bakula moves to Hollywood hoping to make it big in the film industry. In addition to these huge names, Natalie Cole provides the singing voice for Sawyer voiced by Guy. The film also has a great message about prejudice in Hollywood and has one of the scariest animated villains in the sugary sweet-seeming Darla Dimple Peldon.

The Pagemaster is a mostly animated, partially live action movie about an overly cautious ten year old boy who ends up as an illustration and takes an adventure with several books horror, fantasy, and adventure. Young book nerds had their dreams come true when an animated feature about books coming alive came out. Day, and Deanna Oliver. In my opinion, the film clearly helped inspire future Pixar films, such as Toy Story. The Brave Little Toaster is not as underrated as many on the list, because the cult love is pretty strong, but it definitely deserves a bigger place in the conversation about best-animated films of all-time.

Despite being set in the s, it may have been ahead of its time, because it had all the elements to be a hit and enduring animated film.

It has a spunky kid protagonist, great voice-over acting, an interesting plot, and a creature perfect for merchandising. It may not have had a huge box office success, but has gained more admiration and recognition since its release. The stop-motion animated film James and the Giant Peach follows young James Paul Terry as he finds himself inside a giant peach.

He then goes on an adventure with the insects inhabiting it. About a quarter of the film is live action. I mean, where else can you watch a film about giant fruit turning into a vessel for travel? A widowed mouse Mrs. So, there may be a renewed interest soon in Mrs.

It appears that the '90s was full of animated films that start in live-action and then become animated, because Rock-A-Doodle is yet another. It's about a singing rooster named Chanticleer Glen Campbell , the boy turned cat who seeks him out, Edmond Toby Scott Ganger , and their farm animal friends. How can you not love a rooster who sings? Rock-A-Doodle has plenty of great songs and a unique, but fun concept.

Stream Rock-A-Doodle on Youtube. People who know the film love it, and is known as one of the great animated movies or TV shows centered on black characters. However, the film is just great for anyone who wants to watch a hilarious animated comedy. It has so many funny one-liners, hilarious voice-overs, catchy-funny songs, and memorable characters.

Thumbelina is another Don Bluth film on the list. Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where a Toxic Jungle is full of seemingly dangerous insects. Princess Nausicaa voiced in English by Alison Lohman hopes to create a better world for humans and insects.

The film is directed by Hayao Miyazaki, and though created before Studio Ghibli , it is often associated with it. Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind is a beloved animated film and is considered one of the best Japanese animated films by many. Princess Odette Michelle Nicastro has been cursed to turn into a swan most of her days.

She can only turn into her true form, a human, in very specific situations. Over time, The Swan Princess has become a very popular animated film among those who watched the VHS or repeat airings as a child. However, when people mention animated princesses or fairy tales, they rarely speak of Princess Odette and The Swan Princess, which is a shame, because the film is one of the few where the Prince must prove himself worthy of the princess.

Fievel ends up separated from his family and must take a journey to reunite with them. An American Tail was a box office success and has a pretty faithful fan base, but I consider it underrated because it is not as well-known as some other heartwarming similar films, such as Annie, Finding Nemo, and Oliver and Company.

Stream An American Tail on Starz. Spent most of my life in various parts of Illinois, including attending college in Evanston. I have been a life long lover of pop culture, especially television, turned that passion into writing about all things entertainment related.

I was going to put Battle of the Planets but I recently found out that a movie was actually released in Silver Hawks told the story of a team of human heroes in the 29th century who were given metal bodies and hawk wings to stop organized crime in the Galaxy of Limbo.
