Of all studios that should be doing 2-D animation, it should be Disney.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The Walt Disney Animation studio is the studio that Walt Disney started himself in 1923, and it's never stopped and never closed its doors and never stopped making animation, and it keeps going as kind of the heart and soul of the company.
One of the head guys at Disney categorically said to me, 'We don't want to make children's films any more. We want to make films that are going to appeal to all quadrants.' Hence you have films like 'Shrek' and all the Pixar stuff, which is designed to suit everybody.
3D is quite a lot more advanced in animated movies; for live-action movies we're just taking baby steps, we're just in the beginning.
I love animated movies in general. I like making them.
I mean, frankly, I'm not speaking as a representative of Disney or Pixar, I'm speaking as just myself as a filmmaker: I don't go into anything that often thinking about a sequel.
I'm really excited that the studio is trying, because when I began my career in the early '90s, late '80s, Disney was not something - though I respected it and liked what they were doing in those years - it's not like I thought I wanted to be a part of that studio right now.
It would be cool to be on a Disney show.
I would love to continue working on animated films. Yeah, those are my ambitions. No doubt.
Look what Disney's done to their animation department. There wasn't an animator in charge of their animation unit!
Dragon's Lair 3D is about as close as you can come to controlling an animated feature film.
