Why is my image sequence render using an old version of my animation? Whenever I try to render my blender animation, I get this weird sequence render and uses an older version of my animation, and just creates junk files. 

I'm using JPEG format, rendering into a new folder. I have tried restarting blender, saving then reopening the file, but this didn't fix it. Please help, I need to get this animation rendered so I can make sure everything looks OK from an animated rendered view.

Here is  the blend file.
I think reason you are seeing an old version of your animation is because you have an image loaded into the Video Sequence Editor (VSE), which is overriding the render. 

Either remove the image strip with X > Erase Strips from the VSE:



Or, un-check 'Sequencer' in the 'Post Processing' panel in the 'Render' tab:
