Disney returns to hand-drawn animation.
I am really excited about this movie, largely because it IS DIsney returning to hand-drawn animation. CG animation is amazing and I love watching it, but there’s something deeply beautiful about old-fashioned animation.

As with any new business venture, I’ve been spending a lot of time speaking with people, espousing my views of what’s going on in the entertainment industry. Frequently, the conversation (naturally or otherwise) finds itself at “What Is The Future of Entertainment?” a topic of obviously great concern to the vast majority of those I interact with.
