10 Animated Movies to Watch Before you Die

We all loved cartoons and animations as kids, to be honest, most of us love watching them still now. Remember how our childhood was woven with cartoon characters like Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Winnie, Piglet etc. Animation has seen drastic changes over the years. In 1908 the first animated cartoon “Fantasmagorie” was produced. It is considered to be the first hand drawn animated cartoon. In 1928 “Steamboat Willie” was produced by Walt Disney which was the first cartoon movie with sound.  Since then popular cartoons were produced by Walt Disney, Metro Goldwyn Mayor and Warner Brothers. With the advancement of technology, animation progressed from hand drawn cartoons to computer generated ones.
