This list does not include shorts or the film “Tron” (1982), as it can’t be classified as having traditional cel animation in it (as the titles above have).  This film was unique.  It did have groundbreaking computer animation.  But the “computer world” effects scenes, in which human actors were immersed into that environment, were hand-painted, one cell at-a-time.  For more information, click onto Harrison Ellenshaw’s interview.
