Was The Sleeping Beauty the last great traditionally animated film? At least visually?
Like after it, Disney would go into xeroxing animation in 101 Dalmations (saving the company financially) which would give it that "shaggy" look of the 60's-70's. Then computer generated/aided movies would come in leading to some pretty sweet shit but not at all hand drawn. Honestly the best animation I can think of in the 90's were the backgrounds and styles of the directers cut of The Theif and the Cobbler (which was ruined by the animators death and studio meddling) Looking back on the sleeping beauty, its fucking marvalous in its animation, especially considering things like rotating shots that it has, wouldn't be seen again (at least as far as I can remember) when computers kicked it, as in Beauty and the beast. There is something really lovely about it. also best song in a disney movie, fight me.
Bluth is good (dragons lair is a long time favorite of mine) but after watching American Tail as an adult he had some really bad issues with perspect hights. Like the sizes of the cats to mice were so inconsitant it bothered me

That was probably a stylistic choice to make them seem more monstrous. Also cats vary in size.

I don't know man, it just felt like bluths weaker points to me. He does do good shit though, but he is a cartoonist, not a producer and needs a team
