Does anybody know where X-men Evolution was animated?
I started watching the show again because it is just that darn good. I was thinking about how much love and attention Kitty gets animation-wise, and was wondering if they switched animation studios later on in the series because I noticed that Kitty, in particular, tends to look more and more off-mo...

I watched the feature-film-length pilot in the cinema :P. I've got to say, I entered the cinema with such low expectations that they were actually met :P. I expected it to be really bad, so I wasn't really disappointed. I will say this though - the first half of the film really looked a LOT better o...

It's funny - when I was younger, I would find most of Fantasia boring...I liked (and I still prefer these today, I guess) the more 'narrative' driven sketches, even Night on Bald Mountain (even though it scared the crud out of me when I was a youngling). While I still prefer the ones that are less f...

Bah - Ben beat me to mentioning the Little Match Girl :P. I actually cried the first time I saw it :(. I'm quite easily emotionally manipulated :P. While on the topic of Ben - I wasn't aware the Disney shorts are usually attached before films - I only see them in Pixar's shorts before their films. I...

And, while Treasure Planet does kind of take the rap, I think it's more because this was a major film coming from the master purveyors of such product. I don't think anyone was expecting Titan AE to blast the doors off the space genre...but both films were stuck in a double niche: sci-fi <I>and </I...

I would argue that theatres offer a fantastic communal viewing atmosphere which can really heighten the experience of seeing a film for the first time, and also that the sheer size of the screen and the sound has a definite impact that isn't quite the same even in top-notch home theatre setups. :P B...

This is a little late, but Wall-E only just came out in Melbourne, so I only just saw it no less than an hour ago :]. I was amazed. Yes, yes, I know that this is just another "wow, it's awesome" view on the film, but I can't help myself - I think very highly of it. I entered the cinema with such hig...

You betta believe I love those flicks you mentioned, though I confess that I haven't seen some of the classics like Watership Down :(. Rataouille....you know, you wouldn't believe how much trouble I had getting people to watch it with me :(. I actually hold the film in very high regard - it feels 's...

What I thought really had a connection to The Incredibles was http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_X's which aired on Nick. (The link doesn't seem to include the apostrophe and the 's', so you'll have to input those manually if you copy and paste the link.) I only saw one episode, but I thought that the...

Yep Jeroen...I refuse to buy the R2 Swan Princess for the poor transfer and lack of features. We're Back: A Dinosaur's Story is a great little film and I'm glad to have the widescreen LaserDisc of that. I don't know if a soundtrack was released...it was sure hard to find the Balto soundtrack too. W...

Why so little 'serious' Western animation?
I should have called this thread: "Why no Serious?" :P This is something that's been bugging me for a while. Perhaps it's just my own personal biases, but I consider Disney animation to be technically superior to Japanese animation, for the most part. There are a few exceptions, like Akira, which I ...

wow, sorry for the really late reply, guys :(. I forgot I made this thread :(. I want to say that I'm not ungrateful for the time you guys spent to give me all this advice - it was so much more than I had hoped for. Especially you, droosan :p. I mean wow - I can see how much love went into your post...
