I was stunned to read that the awesome opening sequence in Kung Fu Panda was not created via CG, but traditional, hand-drawn animation.
From Art of the Title.

Speaking of old skool, I can’t wait til Neil Gaiman’s Coraline hits theatres in February. It’s the first stop-motion animation feature to be shot in 3D. Bonus – John Hodgman provides the voice of Coraline’s father. IGN has more behind-the-scenes features.
