    What If Disney Quietly Tries To Bring Back 2D Animation?

    It’s not a possibility. CGI is far to entrenched as the dominant form of modern mainstream theatrical animation for Disney to ever consider bringing it back.

    "DuckTales" (2017) Series Talkback (Spoilers)

    Technically, only one solitary episode aired out of order, and it seems the only reason that happened is because XD wanted something wintery to air around the holidays.

    Mickey and the Roadster Racers

    I don’t even know how to respond to the above comment. Viper, aren’t you older than me? Cuckoo Loca is part of the reason this show works so much better than Clubhouse. The dialogue feels more natural and true to the characters and Loca’s playful sarcasm has a lot to do with that. There’s...

    CN Schedule Updates

    I came in here to see the reaction to that psycho CN schedule (which I hear was fake)...and then I saw this post.... Wow.

    Could Mickey And The Roadster Racers Be Adored Like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse?

    Uhhh, okay... There's no real way of knowing right now if the target demo will embrace this like they did the earlier show. But it's entirely possible. That said, I think there's nothing wrong with using this thread to discuss the quality of this show in relation to its staying power and/or...

    Could Mickey And The Roadster Racers Be Adored Like Mickey Mouse Clubhouse?

    I don't know if it will be as well loved as Clubhouse. But it should be, considering it's several times more tolerable. It's a favorite in our house.

    Should Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers have been revived for the 1997-1998 and 1998-1999 seasons?

    The TV crews aren't allowed to touch Rescue Rangers, since the movie that was announced years ago is technically still a thing. This info comes from Tad Stones, from a Lasertime podcast a couple months ago. It's in relation to what Disney Afternoon properties the new Ducktales crew is allowed...

    On a Sunny Disney Afternoon: A Disney TV Animation Book on Indiegogo

    So it's been about a year. How are things going with this project? And since I actually missed most of this thread when it was originally active, I'M the Mike Russo who wrote the Animaniacs blog, Tim V.H. Nice to see it get recognized still.

    Tom and Jerry: Charlie and the Chocolate Factory

    I'm not shocked to see a variety of different looked models on Tom and Jerry in these movies. They use a pretty large hodgepodge of animators on them, many who worked with Brandt and Cervone at Startoons in the '90s. There was a comic chase scene in "The Lost Dragon" movie that had animation...

    Animaniacs turns 25 (Update: Now 30)

    Animaniacs was lightening in a bottle. Everything that made it great couldn't possibly be replicated today. I would never want to see the show rebooted. And like others have said, not much can be done without Spielberg's blessing. And it seems as if he's put his interest in animation from the...

    Goof Troop, 101 Dalmatians the Series, and Gargoyles are on Itunes

    My heart broke when Disney closed the Australian studio. Of course by then they were only working on direct to video sequels where their style didn't really fit the characters they were stuck working with (their animation applied to stuff like Peter Pan and Little Mermaid would often look...

    Goof Troop, 101 Dalmatians the Series, and Gargoyles are on Itunes

    I gotta say, watching Goof Troop in HD has given me renewed appreciation not only for the work Disney Australia did for this show, but every single thing they animated for Disney Television in the '90s. There are at least two animators whose styles are my absolute favorite and it's criminal that...

    Goof Troop, 101 Dalmatians the Series, and Gargoyles are on Itunes

    So that leads to what I'm concerned about. If Disney has no problem withholding episodes they're unsure about, who says all 91 episodes of Darkwing would end up being released this way? "Hot Spells" could be a causality. And if they were nutty enough to add Bonkers, I have a hard time believing...

    Goof Troop, 101 Dalmatians the Series, and Gargoyles are on Itunes

    Hey guys, been a while. Been watching Goof Troop on Amazon. We all know about the alterations to the opening, but in their efforts to scrub each episode into HD, Disney has also made alterations to certain episodes themselves. There are a few episodes that, for whatever reason, feature shots...
