Oh please, of course you do! :) You did nothing wrong, so there`s no need to be so self-deprecating.

More like self-pitiful. I feel like I tried so hard, hardest than anyone in this group, to try and make Disney use Tiana as their foray back into full hand-drawn animation at Disney, only to be let down and be ignored.

Guess unless it’s making Disney finally make Rated R movies in 1 or 2 of their franchises (like Marvel), makin’ fully 2D/hand-drawn long-form stories isn’t realistic to Bob Iger still, just as he felt paying SAG, WGA, and now maybe the Animation Guild (even with Inside Out 2 now looking to pass the fake Lion King next weekend worldwide as the ultimate animated box office hit of all-time) isn’t realistic, until he realized it was.

The sad thing is, if you string all these little bits together, you might end up with something resembling half an episode of house of mouse or something. Which would be way more satisfying.

When do you guys think the. teaser trailer for Light of the World will come out? The movie releases on Summer 2025 so I know it's too early for it be released, but considering they finished pre production last year and started production in January of this year, I think maybe December might be when they release it. I know the studio isn't Disney, but if we go base on Disney pattern, they generally release the teaser trailer 6-7 months before the movie release, but this is assuming the movie releases on June so this is speculation.

Is it delusional of me to think that hand drawn animation will return in Disney in the 2030s? I hope not.

Time will tell. We were only going to get hand drawn back under new leadership, and we've got that now. So lets wait and see. I'm not that hopeful, but lets give the new guy a few years and see if he shows any serious intrest.

Hmm…

Apparently, Studios are assembling superfan focus groups to assess various materials for a franchise project to avoid social media backlash.

“They will just tell us, ‘If you do that, fans are going to retaliate’ … If it’s early enough & the movie isn’t finished yet, we can make those kinds of changes.”

Source: https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/star-w ... 236166736/

Considering the backlash to Tiana being stylized could be massive unless they go the Paperman route, this could be our opportunity to bring back long-form, fully 2D/hand-drawn animated projects back at Disney in Walt Disney Animation Studios, but we have to strike with that opportunity ASAP.

Maybe 2029.

me too, it was actually the biggest animated movie i was looking forward to, it could have opened up adult themes and unfiltered jokes and more in mainstream animation and would finally make people realize that animation isnt kids only :huh:
This really seemed like a real passion project people had fun working on. Fingers crossed

I don't really count this as hand drawn in the traditional sense, however, its somewhat interesting. Its kind of between an animatic and full animation? Kind of like the tangled tv series but more choppy?

Pass.

The Tangled series wasn’t choppy like this.

Did I not say "but more choppy"?

I'm acknowledging its quite choppy, but there's a lot of nice frames in there regardless. And it has a lot of nice dry brush texture which is charming.

That #LooneyTunes movie with Daffy Duck, Porky, and Petunia Pig that WB almost killed before it was saved for theatrical release from Ketchup Entertainment, #TheDayTheEarthBlewUpALooneyTunesMovie, has been announced to hit movie theaters in the U.S. on February 28th, 2025: https://deadline.com/2024/10/the-day-th ... 236118946/.

For all the people who have asked to see this movie be released, even in the wake of Warner Bros/David Zaslav shelving #CoyoteVsACME from ever being released, I hope you turn out at the movie theaters 2 see this film when it comes out. And I’ll give you 2 good reasons as to why:

a) this film’s critical and financial success could be the key to getting Warner Bros to swallow their pride and reverse their course on Coyote Vs ACME to make them finally release the movie.

And b) this film’s success at the box office and the Oscars combined with #Moana2’s potential billion dollar gross, should it really b surprisingly good as I recently heard, might be what we need to make Hollywood studios go back to making long-form projects (movies or series) in full 2D/hand-drawn animation, especially Disney IF both films’ successes is what can get Disney (really Bob Iger) to turn Walt Disney Animation Studios’ Disney+ #Tiana series, that is supposedly in the animation style of Disney’s Oscar winning short #Paperman (but in color), into a fully 2-D/hand-drawn animated #ThePrincessAndTheFrog theatrical sequel, which I hope they push back to November 2029 to give the current animators time to work on without rushing it and to allow the still-remaining hand-drawn animators still at and retired from Disney to re-assemble and get the tech needed to switch Tiana from Paperman style to hand-drawn animation style, along with making sure the production can find out how to get the sequel to work for movie theaters in a competent manner.

This may very well be our last and only chance to turn the tide for the better in terms of the medium of animation to go back to the old ways.

And second chances, or in this case, last chances don’t come very often.

Let’s make it count and not F this up again. At least, I hope those who understand where I am coming from and what I’m trying to say don’t F this chance up.

Good luck.
