People are very harsh critics of animated humans.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
If you look at the Disney Villains, I think you'll find that they do have mass appeal in some way, and it usually has to do with a voice quality that also matches very well with the animation.
At that time, the people that were in the animated film business were mostly guys who were unsuccessful newspaper cartoonists. In other words, their ability to draw living things was practically nil.
Too many of Disney animators, and a lot try to emulate Disney, are trying to hit what they call quality levels. They're boring mannerisms.
The difference between critics and audiences is that one is a group of humans and one is not.
A lot of people feel that there is less artistry involved in cartoon making unless they have painstaking control of each frame.
The cartoons which I enjoy have caused some kind of out rage, but they have got people talking about these issues out in the open and in essence that's what its all about.
The critics had an image of me, and they wouldn't accept any other... I was a cartoon character. A joke.
The animators are absolutely extraordinary. It's mind-boggling.
I'm probably my own harshest critic. If I get a hundred good reviews and one really bad one, it's that one out of a hundred that I remember. I think we actors are hard on ourselves, and I don't know why that is.
The best thing about animated-feature people is that they are very laid-back people. You feel like you're showing up for a backyard barbecue.
