movies/tv What is the worst animated movie you've ever seen

Either the 1986 MLP movie, or a Winx Club one I came across on a movie channel and decided to watch with my girlfriend. To be fair to the Winx Club movie, most of my problems with it stem from the fact I don't know the characters or the world at all, having never seen the series. My second problem with it was that only Bloom was given any characterization at all (as evidenced by the fact I know her name, but no one else's) and that it looked quite clunky. IIRC they used CGI instead of 'normal' animation and it didn't work out that well.

Outside of big animation studios it doesn't feel like companies care about doing good CGI animation.

It's hard to pick just one (or even several) to call the worst ever. Mostly, animated movies aren't so much bad as generic. So many of them fall into the same old checklist of wisecrack here, fart joke there, over-explanation of plot and some stifling moment where the movie screeches to a halt to beat the audience over the head with a gentle moral lesson. 

If I had to pick out the ones that just fall flat, I'd say the Shrek movies, Puss N Boots and Madagascar.

Oh yeah, come to think of it, I can pick a bad one, Spongebob. Truly one of the worst I've ever seen.

I could go into made for DVD movies but they are what they are; no big ambitious projects, just cheap and easy money grabs.

I haven't seen many bad ones. I think I'll just say The Land Before Time VI. I actually like most of the Land Before Time sequels, but this one was just, in the words of PhantomStrider, "such a snore". I wasn't crazy about the fifth one either.

Emoji Movie, Angry Birds Movie, Lion King remake. There’s a lot of bad animated movies these days.
