As with all movie genres there are the good ones and there are the ones that slowly deteriorate your very soul with each watching.

And then there's Disney, which never bothered to pretend to be original.

At the end of the day, we are talking about animated childrens movies.
Unfortunately something like Sleeping Beauty or Spirited Away will absolutely shit all over any CGI film ever made. I do not blame this on the medium of CGI per se, pretty much every animated childrens film to come out of Hollywood in the last ten years has been pretty shit. Disney for some reason just walked off a fucking cliff with Tarzan and has never made anything decent since.
That Disney video is interesting. Note how it seems to be mostly dancing. I think this is because they rotoscoped the dancing. Also the massive similiarities between Jungle Book and Robin Hood don't surprise me. They already recycled baloo; weren't there some sort of straightened economic circumstances? The Sleeping Beauty/Beauty and the Beast thing seems more like a homage to me also, considering that none of those other examples really seem to come out of anything other than a certain ten year period.
KharBevNor:
Maybe if Wall-E was only half an hour long.
Dimmukane:
I don't know, man, Wall-E was really good. Most of the classic Disney movies are children's versions of fairy tales (which did get kind of gruesome), Wall-E was at least it's own thing, and didn't have pointless musical numbers. Not that they were bad songs, but they almost never contributed to the story. 'Cinderelly' was seriously irritating, anyways.
