The test scores were analyzed by using independent sample t-test and a paired sample t-test to understand the differences between the two groups before and after the experimental teaching, The result of the study shows that there was no significant difference in the overall performance between the experimental group and the control group, but there was a significant difference between the two groups in vocabulary ability of the connection of form and meaning. in the pre-test, but there was no significant difference between the two groups in the post test. Both groups did improve from pre-test to post-test. The Feedback Questionnaire shows that the students were interested in English animation teaching and had a positive attitude towards the teacher's intervention in film watching.
