The ages do not necessarily refer to the quality of the products, but rather their production and popularity. It was dark times for the creators.
"Disney era's" is a real thing. Especially Disney Renaissance is the most popular and widely used term. Usually the "experimental era" in this post is referred to "post-renaissance", because they still rode on the back of the tremendously successful previous era.
I usually hear people refer to the current era as New Renaissance
Lilo and Stitch was my **** back in the days. Loved that movie and loved the TV-show as well.
Albeit I must admit I loved Leroy and Stitch more than Lilo and Stitch.
Right. Just to avoid red thumbs for having a different opinion I'll just agree with you.
Well, it certainly was "experimental" but it is not on the level of Treasure Planet, Lilo and Stitch, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire.
maybe in his calling your comment bait, it was he who was baiting. A bait which was apparently successful being that your jimmies got demonstrably rustled in respect to the entire website as a direct result of his bait-calling.
Fine then.
I hink it's a bad Disney movie. It's entertaining but it did not deserve a theatrical release. It was a straight to DVD movie that got a theatrical release.
I honestly can't understand why anyone loves this movie. There have to be like, multiple versions of the first movie, because the one I watched is garbage.
It was basically made after the planned TV series was canceled, so they took the pilot episodes, spliced them together, and added a little extra footage to call it a "movie". Basically they wanted to get a slight return on the work they had already invested before the executives pulled the plug.
I recently re-watched Atlantis, and I can summarize my feelings on it thusly: My God does that art and animation still kick major ass, but the voice acting and story? Really seemed better as a kid.
That's because the "movie" was actually the pilot episodes of a TV series spliced together into a movie, and it shows in the production values. Same goes for the sequel to Tarzan.
didnt stop disney channel from airing it day after day after day..constantly, i was watching that intro seeing the atlantis logo...and then the '2' appeared after..needless to say i didnt stick around that channel much.

If I remember correctly, the dark age refers to the movies being box office flops, not the quality of the films. Similarly, Treasure Plant, The Emperor's New Groove, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire were also movies that are generally well-liked, but made very little money (at least, very little money when compared to Disney's other films).
It's referring to the budget on the movies. Those movies were great, and even gave way for the next stage, but several huge cutbacks to the animation were present.
I think it's referred to as the dark era because of the movies' dark undertones. The great mouse detective had several grim moments, even references to alcohol and tobacco.
It was a FINANCIAL Dark Age for Disney. They weren't doing particularly well during those years though they still did better than they did after Sleeping Beauty, which nearly bankrupted them after it bombed at the box office
dark age my ass. maybe not the most popular but easily some of the best
who doesnt weep openly at the intro to oliver and company or the friendship between the fox and the hound.
Artistically speaking the black couldron was on a completely new level for disney, it inspired over a decade of animated movies afterward not to mention opened up the books to thousands.
and the great mouse detective, oh the great mouse detective, see attached picture for all you need to know.
It's a sort of art piece. Disney animators produce story visuals for famous and/or classical music pieces like Beethoven, Bach, Stravinsky, and others. Fantasia 2000 is actually a sequel. The original is just called Fantasia. Which was responsible for one of Micky Mouse's more historic roles as the Sorcerer's Apprentice
I think that both are vastly underrated, and are very beautiful and moving throughout, full of powerful symbolism and mythology. It also touches up on the history and many interpretations of the various pieces that they feature, which is interesting. My favorite bits from both were Night on Bald Mountain, and Firebird.
For those wondering about the "dark age" era, it's because of the dark tones of the movies. Also some of them are based off of novels that surprised me. Oliver and Company is based off Oliver Twist, and The Fox And The Hound the novel is honestly kinda depressing. Just read the plot summary on Wikipedia or something.
