Regardless of your love for 2D Disney animation (or mine for that matter - in a perfect world, both traditional and stop motion animated films would be made at Disney alongside CG films), what I just bolded is a really odd argument. Sorry to say, it just is. You may as just well say that stop motion should be used in Art Nouveau interpretations of Jules Verne stories, or that all CG animated films be about desk lamps and inanimate objects because the first films using the medium concerned such things. Anthropomorphic animals can work fine in any medium of animation. The only reason I think the CG animation overall looks to be better in Zootopia compared to Chicken Little is that computer animation is generally in a state of technical improvement as a general medium and Chicken Little was made with artists who didn't have much training in computer animation. In any case, it was ten years ago. Time to move on.2Disney4Ever wrote:The thing is, both movies would have looked far more appealing (and would truly be Disney) in hand-drawn animation, because anthropomorphic cartoon animals were practically made for 2D. And since there's no known record of Chicken Little ever being developed as a hand-drawn feature, I'm still convinced that it was deliberately developed by Disney as a replacement for it.
Then again, getting into an argument with you when there's no way you're going to listen and you're only going to rant, despite being warned by a bloody moderator. It makes me want to don the stage and belt my heart out to Sondheim...
