Compared to Bugs, Daffy, Foghorn Leghorn, Sam, et. al. Mickey and Minnie were weak.
Of course, if you want good cartoons, there's this certain big red dog.....
Disney perfected animation. I grew up on it. Then Eisner ruined it with uncontrolled PC...
Disney still does great animation with Pixar.
Examples? Those would agree that there has been a string of (suggestively) anti-Christianity in some of the movies.
could not agree more....animation was great until PC shi-ite ruined it!!!!
Basically, Disney resurged in the late-80s, early-90s starting with "The Little Mermaid".... But that isn't the entire story. Actually, the push to make new cartoons after doing nothing for too long, started with "Oliver & Co.", which was a miserable disappointment.
"Mermaid" had better animation and a better story and a better hook for the adults (so they'd enjoy it, too). It also had Howard Ashman writing song lyrics. When he died, Disney started to decline again. Alan Menchin's other work since Ashman died has been horrible.
There are some exceptions, of course. "A Whole New World" wasn't Ashman, but the "fun" songs of Aladdin were. Elton John's work on "The Lion King" was great (no Menkin). And the "Tarzan" soundtrack took a different approach by making the music the background rather than having a musical.
Disney's last few attempts (w/o Pixar) have been kind of silly to say the least. Nothing anyone would want to go see. Might as well make a film about a rat that gets flushed down a toilet with realistic graphics of the rat and the toilet and all the sewage beyond. Yeah! That's the ticket.
Disney has always been PC. The personification of animals by the Disney Studio has led to generations of people thinking that hunters are bad and evil. The movie Bambi is a great example (" Man is in the forest").
