I totally agree, Disney’s Robin Hood from 1973 is peak hand-drawn cartoon

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 22 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Eeeeeeh... Maybe not. It's pretty good, but there is so much recycled animation that you might aswell call the Jungle book the best aswell.

Forgot about Fantasia?

Lion king?

Don bluth cartoons?

Anything made by Miyazaki.

I’m with you on the studio Ghibli stuff; and the Lion King while a better movie is very polished and to me lacks the hand made feel of Robin Hood

but robin hood isn't entirely hand-made, most of it is copied from other films. that's why there are so many visible roughs in the animation.

...but the Lion king was hand made.

The lion king famously used CGI though.

Yeah, i guess i forgot about the multiplication and wildebeest animation.

I guess it's slightly more impressive that you barely notice.

I’m aware it’s hand-made, I meant how polished and ‘perfect’ it is - like it was redrawn 100 times from the original sketch - it just lacks a certain je ne sais quoi of Robin Hood
