[TheTimeIsWrong]

Please bring back 2D animation, I get so nostalgic since I grew up with old school Disney that I love. We dont care if its in 3D, I just want a good story line and classic movie that will last through the ages.

Children will only like Hannah Montanna in there "tween" years, Iv'e love the Lion King since the day it came out. Timeless and Trends; theres a big difference.

Bolt was good

He rocks!

I really like the disney movies and the pixar one

[TheBenH20]

Even with the success of THE PRINCESS AND THE FROG, most of us may not still know when there will be the Third Golden Age of Disney Animation. But all we know is John Lasseter and his Disney people have managed to restore the classic Disney heritage BIG TIME!

[ThePinkDragon]

I personally Loved LOve Fox ANd the hound BUt I agree he's savimg Disney, he and Bob Iger

[TheBuenaventura93]

after watching the princess and the frog i have to say one thing.......

this man already saved disney!!!!!

[Eternalsummersong]

babycinnamon84: I agree 100% with you. As much as I like Pixar I love Disney's animated movies better.

[VaderGaming]

Pixar are the masters of 3D Animation, they've been doing it for years, they've got everything down, they know how to capture the audience.

[KlonoaKawaiiDesu]

I'm so glad they're bringing traditional animation back to Disney. But what are they going to do about Disney Channel or Disney XD? Wait, that's a whole other story. We're talking about movies.

I like 3D Disney movies. I have yet to see most of them. G-Force looks very cute, and so does Up and Wal-E. They should focus less on Hannah Montana and the Jonas Brothers and focus more on making good movies, and leave cartoony 3D films to Pixar imo. Disney can handle realistic 3D films though. :)

[babycinnamon84]

The 3D Movies are good, but it's just... they don't have the same magic the classical Disney Movies have. They should do both but leave 3D to Pixar... THANK GOODNESS that Disney is finally back.

[aliceinwonderinc]

what do you mean 'as a sellout'? Disney bought Pixar, not te other way around, so technically Pixar's the sell out.

[TheLordmep]

Kingdom Hearts kicks live action Disney's ass.

Pixar is the only thing keeping the company afloat in terms of beauty and art. As a sellout, Disney's actually doing pretty well and should (not) be applauded for their success.

P.S. Disney is planning a 2D musical!!!

And its gonna be done by the same people that are doing their best work?!!!!

Thats so crazy it just might work!!!!
