Disney Animation Reuse

[girlfuckedup]

I was wondering why when I was a kid Disney animation got to be so tedious. Well its because you were watching the same movie over and over. See link.

Ah, I'm glad it's not just me that noticed - actually, in that video, there were a number of incidents that they missed - like use of 101 Dalmations animation in The Jungle Book (3 wolf cubs peering over a stone, 3 dalmation puppies peering over the arm of a chair...). Apart from the Beauty and the Best/Sleeping Beauty one (and I'm not entirely sure the animation was re-used there, there are just only so many ways that you can animate repetitive ballroom dancing), many of those films were from around the same time (Aristocats, Jungle Book, 101 Dalmations, Sword in the Stone, Robin Hood) so it was probably just a phase!

Also, much of what Disney would have you believe is hand drawn animation is actually rotoscope (drawings traced from live action footage) which is animation with most of the hard work taken out. Disney claimed that the live action footage was for reference only . . yeah, right.
It's noticeable in the character of Snow White and blindingly obvious in the Blue Fairy in Pinocchio.
