New Disney list if anyone is interested. It got /co/'s attention for being wrong about Ralph as they decided to rank the first super low then claimed the sequel was better about 10 positions above it. To say the least, not a big fan of the list.

2D animation is more expressive when it comes to characters, but 3D seems to do better when it comes to worlds. The particle effects and detail in the backgrounds of Frozen and Tangled were large selling points of the movies even if the 3D disallowed for more expressionist characters.
- Side Note: Kristoff is way better in 2D, Frozen really did him dirty changing his personality and design in the finished product.

The only film that looks better character-wise from 2D to 3D is Wreck-It-Ralph. Those characters were built for 3D and would look way more out of place next to each other without it. Calhoun and Felix really do come from 2 different worlds in 2D, whereas 3D retains the distinction but still has them feel natural next to each other.

Ralph has more expressions, yet something feels off with the design to me.

9) The Great Mouse Detective
8 ) Tarzan

6) One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961)
5) The Emperor's New Groove

That's, uh...an interesting choice for #1. Certainly unique if nothing else.

I am not even sure what my list would be. My only consistent is just Tangled and Ralph for 2 and 1. If counted Nightmare Before Christmas would also be very high, likely 3, as it was practically my early childhood. Never had much of a strong opinion towards the others.

With some of the Kingdom Hearts talk lately, I find it funny how the game series, as somewhat niche as it is, is basically the shining beacon from Disney. Despite it being a joint project from the start and barely acknowledged by Disney at all.

The animation movies keep under performing, as do the live-action remakes lately.
Pixar hasn't had a big hit in a while, I don't think.
Everyone is getting sick of Star Wars and the MCU.

I'm more excited for Kingdom Hearts IV, or hell even the upcoming mobile game, than anything else remotely related to Disney.

People refusing to grow up is increasingly Disney's bread and butter, after all. Some representation for the audience Disney's trying to build.

I get the logic. I think it was Hasbro who said 20% of their sales are to adults for adults rather than toys intended to get to children, Lego has an an entire adult range most of which is ludicrously overpriced shit and Funko Pops cannot possibly be appealing to any child.

The grown ass adult buying kid shit market is stronger than ever. And executives with their eyes on retirement give zero shits that those people will die without children in 20-30 years. Here and now they are spending money.

Holy shit, I wanted to post about having a shared universe in the latest film was horrifically bad, but this is somehow worse. It looks like it wants to intentionally look like Disney version of Five Nights at Freddy's. The inmates are running the asylum and started setting fire to it while locking themselves inside.

I think 2023 Rolling Stone is making a bunch of contentious lists to get some buzz going. I've seen a dozen youtube guitar channels making hay of a new Top 250 guitarists list they released that pushed out dozens of black and white men from their decade-old one to make room for a lot of obscure black women.

Also it destroyed the reference to that Rockwell painting.
Click to expand...
iirc that was part of a series of riffs on Rockwell pieces
tbh most of those changes don't bug me much, although it is putting it more firmly in the Mickey gang than the company at large
not surprised about nixing Roger though

No kidding. In recent years, I went to the new Academy Museum of Motion Pictures in Los Angeles. One room that was specifically about animated films included a small slideshow display about the cartoon no-no's of the past. This was mainly to do with minstrels and the like, but about half of the content and the cartoons they cited to be lumped into this pile of shame genuinely pissed me off when I saw them:

This shit gets me incredibly angry. I can't even call it "irrational anger" because my anger is in response to the irrational cherrypicking shit going on here and blatant racism in framing cross-racial casting in VA work as an ancient backwards racist thing while showing shit from the last few decades as the examples. Californians get paid millions to fucking lie and smear anything before current year as bad and continue pushing the shit people on twitter started as a new standard.
