[[File:FiveCentimetersPerSecondLandscape2_7436.jpg|link=5 Centimeters Per Second|frame|Dammit, where's my camera?]]
Examples of [[{{TOPLEVELPAGE}}]] in [[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] include:
* [[Disney Animated Canon]] is prone to this, especially during the early films, and "Disney Renaissance" that started with ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'' (1989):
** ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Disney film)|Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs]]'' (1937): Especially during an early scene (just before the nightmare fuelish forest scene) of Snow picking flowers in the forest.
** ''[[Pinocchio (Disney film)|Pinocchio]]'' (1940): What a pretty town!
** ''[[Bambi]]'' (1942) was pretty much entirely Scenery Porn, with a little bit of story thrown in.
Line 19 ⟶ 22:
** Just from the trailer, you can tell that ''[[Tangled]]'' is continuing the tradition. For those curious, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0LiJmSX2fs&feature=player_embedded this] [[The World Is Just Awesome|is a real-life example of the film's lantern scene]].
** Even Disney's [[Deranged Animation]] looks awesome; there's a reason Disney is the trope namer for [[Disney Acid Sequence]].
* Every production released by [[Hayao Miyazaki]] (and [[Studio Ghibli]] by extension) manages to pull at least a long sequence of very pretty scenery, often involving [[Ghibli Hills]] in the background. (Given Miyazaki's [[Author Appeal|love of flying]], it's no surprise that every work has at least one extended aerial sequence.)
* Most of [[Makoto Shinkai]]'s work. Shinkai, in fact, will focus the camera on the Scenery Porn in the middle of important scenes with his characters. ''[[5 Centimeters Per Second|Five Centimeters Per Second]]'' is the epitome of cloud Porn.
* The animated film ''[[Patlabor]] 2'' has a large amount of Scenery Porn. The apex of this is the "boat scene" in which two characters have a long, extremely philosophical conversation while riding a small boat down a {{color|blue|water}}way. As the conversation goes on, the camera view focuses on old buildings, factories, and other features of a near-future Tokyo.
Line 26 ⟶ 29:
* ''[[Steamboy]]''. The film took sixteen years to make, and boy does it show.
* The 2009 ''[[Uchuu Senkan Yamato]]'' film is a mixture of this and [[Technology Porn]], with grand [[Space Opera]] battles and detailed spacecraft interiors and exteriors.
* Much of ''[[The Sky Crawlers]]'' is devoted to featuring the beautiful vistas of Ireland and Poland, as well as the incredibly detailed indoor settings.
* ''[[Angel's Egg|Angels Egg]]'' is Yoshitaka Amano's and Mamoru Oshii's visual poem. With only about five minutes of dialog in its seventy minute run time the absolutely gorgeous visuals carry the film's elegant, surreal and poignant "narrative".
* ''[[Coraline (animation)|Coraline]]'' is this trope mixed with [[Plot]]. The garden and mouse circus scenes in the other world are beyond breathtaking, especially in 3D. All done in [[Visual Effects of Awesome|stop-motion.]]
* ''[[How to Train Your Dragon (animation)|How to Train Your Dragon]]'': Berk is gorgeous.
Line 36 ⟶ 39:
** ''[[WALL-E]]''. Earth as a desolate wasteland is ironically the most beautiful looking thing in the film.
** ''[[Cars]]'' has a long scene at the start and finish that is pretty much all Scenery Porn.
** And its [[Sequel]], ''Cars 2'', takes it [[Up to Eleven]] with new settings and colorful environments. At some points it looks a little ''too'' realistic for a universe made of Cars.
** In ''[[The Incredibles]]'', Mr. Incredible's second arrival at [[Big Bad|Syndrome's]] island pretty much existed to show off how awesome the island was.
** ''[[Finding Nemo]]'' has some very impressive underwater scenes.
** ''[[A Bug's
** ''[[Up (animation)|Up]]'' has some ''amazing'' shots of the jungle, ranging from rocky terrain to lush foliage and everything in between. But it's not only that -- even the cityscape and the ''sky'' can be counted in this trope.
** ''[[Brave]]'' has this from the freaking ''[http://insidemovies.ew.com/2011/06/22/brave-poster-pixar-first-look/ poster]''. And it's set in the Scottish Highlands, meaning there will be more to come.
Line 51 ⟶ 54:
* ''[[Rio]]'' is FULL of this. There are gorgeous scenes of the jungle, but then you get to the flight scenes where we see them overhead, and oh boy! The parade also looks amazing, with dancers in great costumes and beautiful floats. A float featuring a scarlet macaw stands out in particular.
