Am I the only one who thought it was kinda funny?

Funny, yes. But not what one expects to hear from the head of a large company. Opinions are one thing, but when you're the spokesman for a comapy, everyone takes what you say at face value.

I'm a little lost...I'm confused as to the context of this statement. In regards to The Emperor's New Groove, I think this movie is seriously underrated and downed for no reason. Disney practically expected this thing to fail horribly, yet, it's become a bonafide cult classic. I think it could be considered a hit, especially when you consider it was just 13 million dollars shy of Herculues, which many consider a hit. The script is hilarious, even though at first, I thought it was a re-make of The Emperor's New Clothes. I agree with Luke, Home on the Range would be a more fitting comparison. Atlantis: The Lost Empire was just plain bad. The plot was incoherent and I've never seen a more unlikeable cast of characters than in A DIsney Movie ever! Treasure Planet was good. I liked the visual spectacle and it was a fairly decent adaptation. Do I think its underrated? No, because it wasn't a great movie. I don't think anyone should feel sorry for it, because it won an Academy Award nomination, and that's validation enough for the two incomparable directors.

I thought Atlantis was great.

I thought Atlantis was great.

I have to agree! I like the visuals and the sad feeling when arrived to Atlantis. Some very beautiful scenes. At least they tried something different and it's not for kiddies!

I have to at least give Disney credit with Atlantis and Emperor's New Groove for the mere fact that Disney made two films that were very different than their usual fare that also turned out rather well too. This in comparison to Pixar, which, while their films are arguably better than the three in question, have with the exception of A Bug's Life and The Incredibles been pretty much the same movie rehashed over and over again.

I like Treasure Planet and The Emperor's New Groove. It's too bad they're always getting trashed.

I think it was a funny response to Eisner the pathetic. His ocmpany is sinking with crappy and unimaginative movies and projects so he has to attack PIXAR on a VERY MISERABLE WAY. Jobs did what i think everybody would have done. I would!

Jens:

Even IF Michael Eisner was provoking, I don't think it's really necessary for Jobs to even attack back... Jobs was actually a lot more "hurting" than Eisner

You told lately that if someboy was attacking you, it was normal to attack back (on a sequel debate as always ) .. Jobs doesn't have the right to do so???

Didn't you read the full message I posted? I said:

And btw, since when can't someone have an opinion about something? I mean, sheesh... Not because they're the CEO's of 2 big animation companies they should forget all about their opinions or something

And that goes for both Eisner and Jobs. And please, don't turn this into a sequel related topic.

Both comments are kind of silly. Anyone who has seen <i>The Incredibles</i> will think that to call Pixar's animation of humans "pretty pathetic" is pretty ridiculous.

I think that Pixar made the best decision possible when they chose to stylize the humans the way they did, and that's what I'm guessing the comment was thrown at. It sounds like sour grapes to me.
