It was a great year for animation in games: "Ratchet & Clank: Future Tools of Destruction", "Team Fortress 2", and "Loco Rocco" are just a few of the games that had great character animation.

The Simpsons has inspired more animators than anything since Mickey Mouse and The Flintstones. Equally, how could you ignore Marjane Satrapi and Persepolis? The most radical use of commercial animation of the year? You would be remiss in not naming Matt Groening.

At least, as of right now.
