I mean...*gestures over to almost every anime movie*
But, outside of that, there's a few smaller, but well received movies. Which usually get limited releases, but still. And a lot of times it's foreign stuff, like the Japanese anime movies, or something European. Like the Cartoon Saloon movies like Wolfwalkers and My Father's Dragon. The Avatar Aang movie got released in theaters, briefly (like...for one day in two cities "briefly", so it depends on what we count).
It is getting rarer, though. Which is too bad. Since it's Australian, I kinda wondered if Bluey might take a more "European" take with it's movie. But, CGI does make sense. Since, the common belief is that modern kids don't care about 2D animation. Which the success of Bluey kind of points against, honestly, but oh well.
