The mid-2000's were an interesting time for Walt Disney Animation Studios; they had all but completely abandoned the traditional hand-drawn animation, with the satellite studios in Paris and Orlando quietly closing their doors as well (in 2002 and 2004 respectively). There was even an attempt to produce sequels to Pixar films without their involvem...
Dear lord this movie is boring. It's somewhat historically important because it was the last movie to be worked on by some of Walt's legendary Nine Old Men, who then handed the animation duties off to a new generation of talented artists, many of whom would be responsible for shaping the next few generations of Disney animated features (among them:...
For a while it looked like Home on the Range would be the last traditionally animated movie Disney would ever release. And if that had been true it would have been a truly inglorious demise. Home on the Range, originally envisioned as an ambitious supernatural western called Sweating Bullets (it went into production shortly after Hercules), soon mu...
If it turns out Jon Favreau's The Lion King remake uses live action plates that the animators will then superimpose hyper-realistic characters upon (and I can't get confirmation that this has been completely ruled out), just know that there's a precedent for this kind of thing. And that it's awful. That was the conceit behind Dinosaur, a bold, ambi...
Walt Disney Animation at its most inoffensive, Bolt features a talented team behind the camera, including future Big Hero 6 director Chris Williams, the Tangled creative team of Byron Howard and Nathan Greno, and a script co-written by This Is Us creator Dan Fogelman, but lacks anything remotely interesting, either technically or storytelling-wise....
If you've ever wondered where the painfully "hip" DreamWorks Animation movies began, well, here's a good place to start. Originally pitched by animator Pete Young in one of Jeffrey Katzenberg's infamous "Gong Show" pitch meetings where animators would throw out ideas and bad ideas would be "gonged" out of the room (the pitch was simply "Oliver Twis...
This movie is terrible but the stories that came out of it are beyond delicious. More than ten years in the making (the rights were first optioned in 1971 and Disney reacquired the rights last year), The Black Cauldron was the first Walt Disney animated film to feature computer-generated imagery, the first to have a Dolby Digital soundtrack, the fi...
The first in a series of more economically manageable "package films" that could be produced utilizing the diminished resources of the studio during World War II (when the Burbank studio was occupied by military personnel and produced a number of educational films) and the first film inspired by Walt's government-sponsored goodwill tour of South Am...
The follow-up to Saludos Amigos and the second of Disney's World War II-era "package films" to be inspired by Walt's ambassadorship to South America. (Briefly: the State Department, desperate to drum up support in South America, sent Walt on a goodwill tour of the region. Walt, who brought along a small team of artists, saw it as a way to creativel...
This is an odd transitional feature in the company's history. During production, Disney had announced that it was acquiring Pixar and that John Lasseter, visionary filmmaker and Pixar bigwig, would be leading the charge on all animated features. When he saw Meet the Robinsons, he cornered director Stephen Anderson and told him how the movie could b...
