1989 to 1996 was a great time to be young. Too bad traditional animation has fallen out of style.
while thease films were awsome I think there was actually a downside (a kind of theory I came up with)
I think because disney pretty much had a monopoly on the traditional animation thing in America, even non-disney animated films did kind of follow the style
it was pretty much set in the mindset that Animation=cartoons=for kids
I doubt a traditionally animated film that tried to go for a mature audience wouldn't have done so great in the west
now days I think this is slowly changing with CGI films, thansk to PIXAR they set the bar higher, making great films worthy of oscars (not that The best disney films were not great )
but anyway I think breaking free from the label of "disney" allowed films to be a little more "mature" (ok after the whole craze with talking animals with celebrity voices and crude pop culutre references)
ok Ive lost track of where I was going but anyway I think we are slowing getting towards animated films being more than "kids" entertainemnt or even "family" entertainment
