Walt Disney made one just movie, And has been tracing over it ever since

Acacia: Little John and Balloo had the same voice actor, too. He also played someone in the Aristocats, I think (but not a bear).

So, I think this is RTDH's best thread so far - everyone agree?

Seems he has a reputation

I only know his God posts.

that shows maybe 2 mins total of animation from what? 6 films out of the how many the disney studio has produced over the years. Yes they copied actions from earlier films, Disney encourages their animators to use the earlier films as reference. They own the copyright on them so they are able to do that. A hand drawn film is 24 frames per second [12 if shot on 2's but thats still a heck of alot of work] per character plus the fx's, the layout and the background, thats a lot of work for one second of screen time.

Those scenes weren't copied, they were referenced, the original animation is stored at Disney feature animation and animators are welcome to take out the original animators sketches and notes and use them as reference when animating their scenes. They didn't copy and past as they are different character designs so they have different models - they would have to have been animated by the animator [or rather a few animators as there is the character animator doing the keys, the assiatants doing the inbetweens and the guys doing clean up]

like I said, show it to an animator and it'll be ripped apart in a few seconds.

there isn't an animation forum, there is a sub forum as part of digital design but that was meant to be for animation connected to digital design, have posted a couple of times in forums to request an animation forum but nothing ever came of it.

doh!

Hats off to disney. They are obviously a bunch of very clever people, i mean who got hurt? the children enjoyed the movies. I certainly did, so whats the problem? Who was ripped off? We payed to see a good movie and we got it no matter how it was made. We payed to see the blare witch project and that was made with lies and a handheld camera, yet people still enjoyed it. Everybody takes shortcuts and sometimes its worth it to do so if your still getting the same quality. It took people over 20/30 years to notice that and its very good. Why make a big deal of it? If your going to give out and post threads about being ripped off, i could suggest 10,000 other subjects to protest your angre about.. such as the things that are going on under your nose in your own country!! Never mind disney!!

Ehhhhhh... who's angry?!!


Disney can do no wrong: anyone who's given me Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin and The Lion King is alright in my book

Ehhhhhh... who's angry?!!

the animators who worked their assess off and are now being accused by some random idiot on the internet that they just *traced* their work?

What I mean is I saw zero accusations/anger in this thread, in response to corbo87's:

Nope

That video has just made me wanna watch Disney Movies...especially Robin Hood.

Disney DVDs were 2 for 1 in Tesco the other day

Interesting but it's proberly just Disney playing off on their orginal success, does anyone know the time when all those movies were made because maybe if there is a 5 or 10 year gap between the movies, that's the reason they made them because nobody would notice, except for Run To Da Hills of course:D

Anyway Disney have alway copied when if comes to making movies. Not one movies is thought up by a Disney writer, it has alway been copied by something else.
The Lion King- Hamlet and Hitler's rise to power
The Jungle Book- Was inspired by the book, the Jungle Book
Snow White- The Brothers Grimm books
Muppet Treasure Island- Treasure Island

Anyway Disney are nothing but robbers who like to play off of others success, lazy basta*ds:mad:

Well yeah sure most of the animated ones are based on fairytales by the Grimm Brothers, Hans Christian Anderson and the likes: The Little Mermaid, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White, Beauty and the Beast... but the fairytale versions are typically much darker than the Disney-fied ones.

It's not robbing, it's adapting
