    It's a common misconception that Disney only used 1's for their animation. While they did use them quite often, they certainly used 2's and even 3's when the situation called for it. And Warners used 1's when they had to as well, particularly when doing pans as it would cause a strobe if not done on 1's. The only animator I know of who animated entirely on 1's was Richard Williams, and he went bankrupt.

    I agree with being family friendly, but I don't think Disney movies is necessary playing safe (formulaic almost any movie is, with exception of auteur directors). Okay, making Fairy Tale movie is a safe move, but how exactly is safe trying to adapt Hamlet for kids (Lion King), Bambi (the original is really dark) or The Hunchback of Notre Dame? Okay, those movies don't have Cigars and Graphic violence, but I don't think they are underestimating kids either, or even the adults who can watch it with not problem. Which is incredible since A LOT of "adult movies" underestimate the audience as totally dumb folks. I really think they do a lot of risky movies, more the people recognize.

    It's really exciting to see how the situation has changed since this video released. The newer Mickey Mouse shorts are some of the most dynamically animated cartoons of the last few years, and they've fleshed Mickey out as a character more than ever. Meanwhile, Bugs has largely been waiting in the wings for HBO Max. The direction they're taking there looks really promising, and more true to his roots than anything else we've seen for decades. Disney took a page out of the Looney Tunes book, and in turn pushed WB back towards their golden age animations.

    I'm not going to say Mickey Mouse is a cartoon character with great personality because he isn't, but I don't think he's unrelatable per se. I think it's a shame that he's perpetually relegated as a foil to Bugs even in this argument. Historically speaking, Mickey is interesting in conveying a childlike wonder, optimism, and curiosity about the world. Illusion of Life talks about how Mickey distinguishes himself through a simple interaction with a bear; he's sheepish, trying to stay normal in the face of danger, with a specific intonation. I think as characters, Bugs and Mickey are contrasted by their cultural backgrounds; fast-talking city dweller and Midwestern country boy. In short, Bugs does have a stronger, more visible personality, yet there is a mold-ability to Mickey and he can be heroic or sly

    Quote is in the first two paragraphs of the page www.joshuanava.biz/disney-animation/p-1.html "Mickey's reaction to seeing a bear right before him is pure "Disney," unique, spontaneous, fresh, and funny. No one bul Walt would have thought of that dialogue, or stretched out the situation to so much footage, or expected the animator to sustain the predicament with nothing but personality. But what personality! This is no ordinary, "Oh, Hi. Mr. Bear." Right from the first nervous gasp of recognition, while he is struggling to gain his composure, he is the Missouri farm boy living out a fantasy. "Oh. . . . It's you . . . that is, it is you-ain't it? I mean, isn't it? Uh. I thought you were Pluto, but you're not Pluto. . . . You're you, aren't cha? Uh . . . well, I'm Mickey Mouse. . . . Y'know? Mickey Mouse? I hope you've heard of me-I hope? ..." This gave the animator strong changes of attitude and texture in the acting that are seldom found in normal dialogue."

    Shame about the Mickey Mouse comment. The old cartoons and comics by Floyd Gottfredson show an adventurous and brave Mickey, not the corporate mascot he ended up being. But about Bugs, seeing his evolution was great. I've never been a fan of him, preferring Daffy, but he's still a greatly designed character.

    I guess I like Bugs a bit. Thanks for doing this. Kind of funny but I feel Bugs made a similar transition to a inoffensive corporate mascot as Mickey did. What made Bugs a great and versatile character was his personality, a undisputed asshole. He could fit in any scenario the writers wanted because his brash and arrogant but charming personality blurred the lines on if he was good or bad. It could often depend on who he was facing and their individual characteristics, where someone like Yosemite would deserve everything he got and Bugs was the hero, Elmer would get sympathy in many ways but he started what he got, and in some cartoons even flat out be a sadistic villain. What still made Bugs lovable in any case outside his humorous personality is how he is usually attacked first, how everyone's trying to wrong him and how he's just protecting himself, but at times how far he went could make you feel for both sides even though you knew he was going to win (but the times he lost were insane). He just felt natural, not someone made 100% perfect for kids. At some point I feel he lost that asshole characteristic, he was toned down dramatically into a more child-friendly character that did nothing wrong. It was perfect for a mascot and for Jones' cartoon style but he just lost what made him stand out from Disney and anything else from that era. He was the same as Mickey by that point.

    At this point, he's in the same position as Mickey. While Mickey had the Clubhouse show (blegh), Bugs had the Looney Tunes Show (which sucked). But check out Wabbit and the new Mickey Mouse series. They seem to be getting back again on track!

    I'd compare Clubhouse more to Baby Looney Tunes, TLTS is actually overhated quite a bit for what it's worth. I'd agree after everything is weighed in they are about equal at this point. Both new series do try to return to the roots which is refreshing after trying everything under the sun

    Wabbit isn't that good the art looks ugly and it's alot less funny than real Looney Tunes. New Mickey Mouse is absolutely hilarious its so fast paced and crazy. And they didn't change the character design too much like they did with Wabbit. It just tries to look like the 30's version. The only character who looks Weird is goofy.

    It's because golden age animation had insane amounts of budget and time compared to today since they were made for pre movie showings at theaters instead of on tv, and generally episodes weren't as long as nowadays. That's not to say cartoons don't look good nowadays though. If anything we're in another cartoon boom like that of the late 90s early 2000s, though with cartoons of different styles. Same goes for the sorta boom in eastern animation as well.
