7. Coraline (2009). This was a pretty astounding feat of stop-motion animation. Given the year it was produced, I was genuinely unsure whether it was fully computer-generated or not until I looked at the wiki page. It's such a flex that in some of the later sections of the movie, they drop the frame rate of certain elements to something characteristic of older stop-motion works to produce an uncanny effect.

Also I immediately clocked the Other Dad's song as a TMBG thing

• Movie poster for Coraline (2009). The cat and Coraline in her yellow raincoat and galoshes walking along a curved horizon which terminates on the right with the pink house and a gnarled tree whose branches seem to form a grasping hand. In the background, a huge full moon with a button faintly superimposed on it.
