List of computer-animated films

A computer-animated film commonly refers to feature films that have been computer-animated to appear three dimensional on a movie screen. While traditional 2D animated films are now done primarily with the help of computers, the technique to render realistic 3D computer graphics (CG), or 3D Computer-generated imagery (CGI), is unique to using computers to create movies.

This is a list of theatrically-released movies that are entirely computer-animated, and rendered in 3D. These are sometimes referred to as CG films.

Computer-animated films typically have two production companies associated with them: an animation studio and a distribution company. For example, Pixar designs and animates their features and Walt Disney Pictures distributes them. There are also often other production companies which are involved in other aspects of the film. In this list, the main animation studio(s) will be listed first, sometimes followed by the main distribution company in italics.
