Were Disney Movies Better In The 1990s? I SAY YES!

It was all 2D animation. The animation changed tone to fit each movie, but that happens in modern films, too. In animation, you can change the overall tone, or specific movements. I proved they don't change specific movements. I'll acknowledge that old movies change tones, but so do new ones. It's not just that Tangled is "lighter." The entire color scheme is warmer. The tone is different. The way things are placed on screen is different. Even if Tangled and Frozen weren't different, why fix what isn't broken? Modern animation looks great, so Disney is going to keep doing something if it looks good. Animation is getting more and more immersive. With 3D, even if you watch it in 2D, you can feel the world around you. It jumps out of your screen. On a modern flat screen TV, 2D animation gets hidden by the size of the screen. It doesn't make use of the technology we have. 3D animation opens the door to endless possibilities. Intricate actions can be shown in more realistic ways. Characters each have a unique gait because walking can take place in three dimensions. It's an experience. It's still art, and it's still creative. We can create clay models with our hands, too. 3D animation is like bringing models to life. A personal touch can be created in lots of different ways. The music is personal. The acting is personal. The minuscule details allowed by 3D animation are personal. It's easier imagine yourself in a three-dimensional world. I don't understand why 3D would capture imagination any less. Computers are very good. Anything you can dream, you can animate on a computer. Big Hero 6 might have worked as a decent enough film, but 3D animation is what fully capture Baymax's texture and movement. He might seem real in 2D, but 3D allows him to move in the endearing ways that carry the film. Who cares if they used the same model? I already proved that 2D animators recycle scenes. It makes sense that 3D animators would recycle faces. 2D artists do that too- there's a basic face every animator knows how to draw. Yes, they look similar, but people look similar in real life too. They have enough differences to be distinguishable, and these differences show character. That's the whole function of having different-looking characters in different films. It doesn't lower the quality of either film. It's actually a benefit- it allows people to make realistic fan theories. People like to say that Rapunzel and Anna are sisters, and that's more fun to believe if Rapunzel and Anna look similar. It's kind of offensive to claim that "computer animation does not require talent." I dare you to go animate a film. You might be able to make the characters move, but it does take talent to make them move uniquely and realistically. How does your eyelid look when you're sad? How much does your hand shake when you're nervous. Where would you be looking? Would your eyes reflect anything? It's an art form, just like drawing. The only difference is the medium. Anyway, we're not talking about difficulty. It's better if things are easier, so that they can focus on plot, or making more movies. Elsa never disliked Anna. You can see her discomfort at hurting her. You can see decision making throughout. Maybe she didn't want to be found, either. You can analyze her yourself. No, you didn't get to see everyone during every moment, but you didn't have to. The transitioning was set up so you can see the most important scene at any given moment. You can infer what's happening everywhere else. That's where the creativity you mentioned comes in. The movie makes you think creatively. It's designed a whole world, and it shows you the plot. Your mind is more than able to fill in the things that don't really matter. Why are we so obsessed with "sister story?" People are calling it that because Elsa and Anna are the first Disney princesses to be sisters. The powers and their relationship are all wrapped up together. They absolutely had a bond together. Elsa's face when Anna is frozen proves that. So does "Do You Want to Build a Snowman?" And the distress Elsa showed when she had to kick Anna out of the ice palace. Heck, Anna is driven to go on the whole journey because she feels close to Elsa. You even say, "Her actions only showed that she loved her sister." It's completely untrue that Kristoff had no impact on Anna. Watch Anna interact with Hans at the beginning, than with Kristoff at the end. She learns what a real relationship is. With Hans, Anna acted the same with him the entire time they were falling in "love." You can tell Anna's learning by the fact that she treats Kristoff in different ways. At first, as a stranger. Then, a friend. Slowly, as an awkward crush, during the troll scene. Then, in a relationship. She's still not as intense as she was with Hans, though. Anna is abosolutely capable. She saves Kristoff from wolves. She talks to Elsa, laying the building blocks for her to return. She makes it out to the trading post, which is an accomplishment, considering she's grown up completely indoors. Why would Kristoff hide his feelings from the viewers? We should know that he has them. And Anna doesn't recognize her feelings for Kristoff at first. That's the whole point of her change. With Hans, the love was visible and instant. With Kristoff, it grows slowly, and you don't notice it until the end. If you watch it again, you can see it buildings. College students liked Frozen at least as much as kids did. It deals with pretty adult themes, if you look for them. Elsa is a pretty accurate representation of depression, at times. And Let It Go can be a metaphor for sexual awakening. There's lots for adults. It makes more sense to include different things for different age groups, instead of trying to make every little thing appeal to every age. This way, adults get deep themes, and kids get Olaf. And Olaf isn't just for kids. I know adults who love him. You could call the target audience "Family" instead of "Children" if you want. It's kind of the same, considering adults often have to watch TV with the kids. Frozen absolutely appeals to all ages.
