**** I'll just copypaste it here

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

Bronze and silver ages are far less common.

some damn good experiments if you ask me

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.

Ehhhhh, Emporer's New Groove was like 2 pegs from feeling like a straight to DVD movie.
#25 to #24 - viftech (09/05/2015) [-]
What you mean Kronk's New Groove. Which was direct to video.
#26 to #25 - theruse (09/05/2015) [-]
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.
#78 to #26 - sequel (09/06/2015) [-]
To be fair half the people I've met hate the Emperor's New Groove.
User avatar #100 to #78 - theruse (09/06/2015) [-]
I'm not baiting, are you kidding? What, I have a different opinion and that's bait now? Jesus this site, man.....
#110 to #100 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #161 to #100 - dreygur (09/06/2015) [-]
Or you could not make a billion assumptions and just assume that he posted it for the sake of relevance.

I did lol.

"Just to avoid red thumbs for having a different opinion I'll just agree with you."

What a bitch.
User avatar #56 to #55 - theruse (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #57 to #56 - kyoutu ONLINE (09/06/2015) [-]
Good for you mate, fair enough.
#44 to #26 - mrmomoguy (09/06/2015) [-]
what if it's because ENG wasn't made to be taken as seriously as the others? IMHO it focuses a lot more on the comedic aspects of Disney movies.
User avatar #45 to #44 - theruse (09/06/2015) [-]
It has nothing to do with that. The writing just wasn't up t o par with other Disney films.
User avatar #46 to #45 - mrmomoguy (09/06/2015) [-]
Fair enough. And I certainly agree with you that it IS the black-sheep of that era.
#43 to #26 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
I disagree

Movie is so underated
#94 to #3 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #102 to #94 - oddfrogman (09/06/2015) [-]
the first movie is the absolute best, chances are you watched the sequel or your taste is ****
User avatar #131 to #102 - kyubii (09/06/2015) [-]
How have I never heard that there was a sequel to this before?!
User avatar #145 to #131 - fishinyourface (09/06/2015) [-]
It's absolute garbage, and does nothing other than **** all over the first movie.
User avatar #146 to #145 - kyubii (09/06/2015) [-]
Well that's disappointing.
#172 to #131 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #162 to #131 - Furubatsu (09/06/2015) [-]
It was originally planned to be a spin off series but nobody wanted it so the smushed episodes they had already made into a direct-to-video movie
#180 to #162 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
At first I thought that was kind of smart then I realized they could've just released the ******* series on dvd instead. Less work too.
User avatar #177 to #3 - donbionicle (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #40 to #3 - notanotheraccount (09/06/2015) [-]
This is one of the best movies from Disney during and after it's time.

I personally enjoyed the expanded mythos, especially the cave dwellings' indian fellow
User avatar #92 to #41 - runapuff (09/06/2015) [-]
I actually kind of enjoyed the sequels, they weren't as great as the first one, but I still thought they were good.
#16 to #3 - xplore (09/05/2015) [-]
i didnt mind the spinoff atlantis 2 either, didnt quite have the shine of the first, but it was just as underated most people dont even know about it
User avatar #21 to #16 - megaton (09/05/2015) [-]
the budget of atlantis 2, i am pretty sure, was about 10 bucks and a cheese sandwich made with only 1 slice of bread.
User avatar #58 to #21 - tenorkitsune (09/06/2015) [-]
I would agree. It was pretty bad. Not bad enough to stop my younger self from watching it a few times, but still pretty bad.
User avatar #60 to #58 - megaton (09/06/2015) [-]
i agree, but about 3 years ago i watched atlantis and attempet to watch atlantis two right after. it was terrible.
User avatar #62 to #60 - tenorkitsune (09/06/2015) [-]
Yeah, that would do it. It's hard to go from the goodness that is Atlantis: The Lost Empire, to Atlantis 2: ****** , Unnecessary Sequel.
#174 to #21 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #70 to #16 - mcmanybucks (09/06/2015) [-]
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.

I'm pretty sure the dark times are referring to when disney was ******* broke and had to reuse a bunch of animation and **** to make up for it disney.wikia.com/wiki/Disney_Dark_Age
User avatar #105 to #23 - autbelli (09/06/2015) [-]
Fox and The Hound was better than most **** they let out ever.
User avatar #53 to #23 - vissova (09/06/2015) [-]
Great Mouse Detective is still one of my favorite childhood movies of all time.
User avatar #153 to #23 - rogueshadow (09/06/2015) [-]
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).
User avatar #93 to #23 - runapuff (09/06/2015) [-]
I think they're referring to the fact that these movies had darker tones to them than some of the other movie.
User avatar #52 to #23 - sasy (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #27 to #23 - floopdawhoop (09/05/2015) [-]
As comment #5 says, it's probably more the dark undertones rather than quality
User avatar #28 to #27 - theruse (09/05/2015) [-]
it better mean that or ****** gon learn 2nite.
#30 to #28 - ohemgeezus (09/05/2015) [-]

#4 - milkandeggs (09/05/2015) [-]
Fox and the Hound is a stunning film though
User avatar #5 to #4 - skyggen (09/05/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #31 to #5 - hantervan (09/05/2015) [-]
And then you have the black cauldron which has necromancy, creatures of darkness even sacrificing of life....

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
#54 - jomgor (09/06/2015) [-]
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.

Am scrolls too lazy too log in
User avatar #133 to #132 - SirSheepy (09/06/2015) [-]
I've never seen it, actually. I just googled searched the picture
#155 to #133 - brisineo (09/06/2015) [-]
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.
User avatar #201 to #155 - SirSheepy (09/06/2015) [-]
Yeah, I saw the first Fantasia, but I just never got around to seeing 2000.
#169 to #155 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
Isn't Fantasmic another sequel to this?
#176 to #169 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
...No. Where'd you get that from?
#136 to #133 - anon (09/06/2015) [-]
Am scrolls. well if you watch it first, tell me if its worth it. I will do the same, if you want.

i'm willing to fight anyone that says the fox and the hound was a **** movie.
User avatar #148 - CaptainExplosion (09/06/2015) [-]
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.

Anyone mind telling me what the upper left one is from the 'Experimental Era' and the mid-left one from the Dark Age? Don't recognize those two.
#154 to #150 - pentol ONLINE (09/06/2015) [-]
seconded, also the rightmost in the bronze age.

The Rescuers
User avatar #163 to #150 - darknesincontrol (09/06/2015) [-]
the mid left of the dark age one is called The Black Cauldron
User avatar #165 to #150 - darknesincontrol (09/06/2015) [-]
im guessing the experimental one is Fantasia
User avatar #166 to #150 - taternutz (09/06/2015) [-]
Fantasia 2000 and Black Cauldron
#86 - wakkowarner (09/06/2015) [-]
I still loved The Great Mouse Detective, though. And Oliver & Company, too. **** , I even liked The Black Cauldron and The Fox and the Hound.

I think the only way 1981-88 could be described as a dark age is in financial terms, since those movies didn't make much money, as far as I know.
User avatar #99 to #86 - feelythefeel (09/06/2015) [-]
Agree 100%.
