It's a sad conclusion... Animation evolves, now it's 3D era, but it's still animation. 2D is still alive; it's less considered for feature lenght films than 3D, but I hope it's just a period of time and then 2D will be more considered again. Other kind of animation are bringing great results (Aardman production, with stop motion). About 2D shorts, there are no more such fluid animations like in the 40s (the last I can remember are Animaniacs).

Sadly, I doubt 2d animation will ever gain the popularity it once had. I think before too long, 2D live action films will be a thing of the past. Connoisseurs will always exist. I'm almost done with a chalk animated short, if you wanna check out a couple clips from it click on my screen name, there's two videos. I'm gonna combine live action and chalk, I'll be done with the whole film in 2 weeks

what about russian animation? japanese animation? what about digital animation?? It's more of history of american animated cartoons ...not history of animation...

@leoagate it is sad to think that animation has stopped evolving, and that the best we know was invented almost 70 years ago. Imagine what we could have achieved in all those years in hand drawn animation.

@roxonogueira I agree with you, its history of american animation, but still, great job! congratulations, great work!

Needs a sequel.. What about The Simpsons? The emergence of animation as an adult medium for exploring satire? South Park, Family Guy.. And the amazing animation of the 90's: Dr Katz, The Maxx, Duckman? I thoroughly enjoyed this history of animation but it only feels like half the story...

On 1:40 he swore. Since when do they swear?

@flagday84 I disagree. I think there's a perfect chance of 2D regaining it's glory. You'll know as well as I that any animation medium can be popular and catch the public's attention as long as it's done well enough. What people don't want to see at the end of the day is a bad movie.

Sorry, i do realize you wrote that comment 3 years ago lol

[MrGroogly]

well done, mate :) Cheers!

I don’t think it’s very fair to say that true animation ends in the 1970 as many are saying. Animation has always had its ups and downs with some decades being more successful then others. Animation is still living and breathing, responding to culture and movements in every part of the world. Just look at animation from the 1990’s and today and you’ll see that there are plenty of gems that even take influence from the classics. To say that animation is dead is a sign of ignorance.

Cel Animation 1920 - 1970

"That's all, Folks!"

As American animation quality declined, Japanese animation was moving the artform forward with increasingly innovative and cinematic tv animation.

While we were churning out shlock like Jabberjaw, they were creating hugely influencial masterpieces such as Space Battleship Yamato.
