You know some people adore traditional disney animation or 3d animation. But how he puts it is exactly how I feel it was perfect how he said it

The animation genre in Hollywood evolved a great deal over the last decade. With the huge success of computer-animated movies, it was said that traditional animation was dead. What is your opinion on that?

"First of all, computer animation is certainly a tremendous and viable medium today. But the warmth and personality derived from 2-D animation, in my opinion, cannot be surpassed.

Certain stories lend themselves well to 3-D animation and I won’t labor this with naming them, but in my bones, I still respond more emotionally to the artists feel in 2-D. You feel the ‘actor’ in the animator more personally…it’s hard to explain."

I think the 'deadness' is more the fault of the stories, not the animation. If these 'inferior' movies were re-done in cel-animation, they'd still be inferior.

On the other hand, Pixar's movies seem just as warm and lively to me as any 2D movie Disney ever did back in the day.
