Dizco kills off traditional animation

Suspended Animation "Pencils down. Disney terminates traditional animation"

I love animations. I love 2D Cel and 3DCGI animations. One is not better than the other. Using one instead of the other to reduce costs can make an excellent movie look crap, even if the story is great. However, using one instead of the other will not make a movie better if the story is crap. If you start with a bad story, cut corners, sack animators and use CGI to cut costs, you'll end up with a really nice looking pile of pooh.

Never mind the quality, feel the length!

3D remakes... What is the logic? How will it be better?

WHY?

I fear we'll end up with something that has all the art of a Barbie Movie (I've been forced to watch one of those while the house was full of little girls. CGI at its worst.)

Dizco wouldn't know an original story if it bit them on the bum, and so promote the wrong movies. Lilo & Stich was an original but they promoted Treasure Planet, a remake.

ah. I think I just answered the "why."

I suspect that it will be 'better' in so far as it will be discernible from the originals, and the sad majority will rush out to buy the crud. Sort of like Star Wars Special Edition. Disney lost my respect with Beauty and the Beast on Ice, and it's all gone downhill from there. On the whole, I don't mind living in a Capitalist world, but I truly wish that somebody would tell the tepid money grubbing amoralists in charge of everything to bugger off.
