I think Pink Floyd's The Wall deserves a mention.

You guys forgot a few.

Space Jam, for instance. RocketMaster 20:14, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

And King Kong --JFP 02:06, 5 January 2007 (UTC)

And the one where Jimmy Wales teams up with Sailor Moon. CanadianCaesar Et tu, Brute? 19:04, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

That is the most ridiculous picture I've ever seen. Is it really necessary? --90.240.102.48 01:23, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

It's very... clever placement. But it is an example, and not a copyvio at that. Abeg92contribs 22:30, 12 February 2007 (UTC)

That Picture

I don't think that picture is really good. It looks like someone photoshopped two unrelated pictures together, can't we use a picture from a real movie like this? Or at least one that's a little more authentic-looking?Mavrickindigo 16:18, 8 April 2007 (UTC)

I have added a new image from Gertie the Dinosaur. It is certainly more fitting than the picture it replaced, though I have my doubts that it best represents the genre. Someone may wish to replace it with a shot from one of the more recent, flashier movies. But I would still recommend keeping it in this article, possibly in the (yet to be created) History section.

Live-action/animated film?

What about other genres using live-action/animation - especially television series? Should this article be renamed and expanded? DWaterson (talk) 01:32, 28 March 2009 (UTC)

Further to the above, I've created a category at Category:Live-action/animated television series to deal with this. DWaterson (talk) 14:54, 12 April 2009 (UTC)

Becoming Meaningless

As much as I like the article and the historical list, I'm afraid the more recent listings (1990's and beyond mostly) are a problem. The use of CGI has made the distinction almost meaningless, to the extent that one could argue that literally a majority of modern films in the fantasy and science fiction genre could be considered live-action/CGI. Unless some rules are laid down (to include films such as Enchanted, but not, say, District 9 despite having CGI characters), the later portion of the list should be purged with explanation - something along the lines of "The extensive use of CGI in modern filmmaking makes a list of films that combine them impractical. For the 1990's on, this list is restricted to combinations of live-action and extensive use of hand drawn animation. " Or something like that. The inclusion of Flight of the Navigator makes me think such a restriction should be pushed back to the 1980's. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 4.254.86.217 (talk) 20:00, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
