I've crafted a list of the ten best films utilizing stop-motion animation, and 'The Lost World' made the list! Find out where it lands, and see what else made the final cut:

Ten best by whose standards? There's not a single Harrysausen on the list. The man single-handedly revolutionized stop motion technology in film-making, which wouldn't be bested until the advent of CGI decades later.
Pah!
Some of those movies are indeed good, but to have a top 10 stop-motion anything without Harry Hausen is an insult.
