| There is something so magical about animation- it’s taking art and
shaping it into a story. Disney has captured the glory and significance
of this movie art form through the years and Tarzan’s animation is
mesmerizing. I wish I could say the same for...more |

used to it, to learn it fully and bring their films back up to par. With

| Disney's recent animated efforts have become nearly identical in plot
and indistinguishable in theme. They all follow the same basic
formula: rich, gun-toting white guys = bad; cute animals,
strong-willed women, and weird freaks = good. Let it be known...more |
