What is the absolute best animation you’ve ever seen, whether it’s a movie, cartoon, or just a scene?

I don’t mean story wise, I mean the actual animation. And I don’t mean beautiful illustrative quality with little movements, but actual beautiful animation. (Anime does this a lot, and while I like it, a lot of it fits the description i just said)
So what’s the best animation you’ve seen and why? post a link if you can

How can I give someone Red Eyes in Adobe After Effects?

I want to make a video in which my friend would have red eyes. Like vampire red eyes. How could I do this? I want it to be realistic. I can do motion tracking to follow his eyes, but How do I make it so it looks realistic, like when he blinks you see no red. If you have a video tutorial that would be most helpful. Thank You!
