I heard that they are closing all the traditional hand-drawn animation units with effect from today?
What a shame.

They're closing the one in Florida. Supposedly, there's still one in Burbank, CA.

The Florida studio is officially closed but a number of former Disney animators have formed their own company, Legacy Animation Studios. There's no word yet on any projects they may be working on -or even if they have anybody lined up to give them funding- but at least they're still committed to 2D animation.

Yeah, heres the official site:

They will be doing the smaller stuff right now and hope to do a feature some day. But man do they have some amazing talent under their belts.

Thank God, no? I hope they punish Disney.

They should have called their studio F*** You Disney Studios, or Disney Blows, or something like that. That would have been hilarious. At least it's good to hear SOMEONE's keeping hope alive.
Also,wow,I didn't know this. So sad,seeing as how Walt Disney Florida produced three hits,Mulan,Lilo and Stitch and Brother Bear. Man,what a shame what a shame.
Well,at least their honoring Walt and not ruining his good vision by bashing or getting revenge. Cheers Legacy! (or former WDF employees).

Originally Pixar was gonna seperate from Disney, so maybe Disney was gonna focus on making their own 3D pictures, but Disney resigned Pixar again.
I honestly feel that other studios in the USA have been producing better 2D works than Disney, like The Iron Giant, Prince of Egypt and anything done by Don Bluth. I haven't cared much for Disney since Jungle Book, the last movie Walt Disney himself was involved in.
Man, if they brung back new episodes Duck Tales and Gummi Bears I'd be a lot nicer towards Disney...

Don't forget other hits like Darkwing Duck and Talespin. :) Ah,1989-1995 were Disney's best years,not counting the ones when Walt was behind all the movies in the 40's-60's(ie all of Disney's trademark classics, Sleeping Beauty,Lady and the Tramp,Dumbo,Robin Hood,etc)

Damn,that would be sweet! DK was the ultimate in cool when I was growing up. He was one of my many childhood cartoon heroes. LOL.
I think he'd be a wicked summon,or just a villian like the way Maleficent,Jafar and company were in the first KH. Seriously.
And also,yep,I'd watch the Gummi Bears everyday after school when I was little. The shizzy. Ah...such bliss.

What a shame.
Actually, we were supposed to have a visiting artist from Disney (he graduated from here a while back) come through here and give a workshop and all of that, but that fell through because Mickey Maus is a blind, stupid, greedy prick.

Are you sure? I heard Pixar's last movie with Disney will be the Impossibles or whatever it's called and then they're pulling away... I hope so. But Disney is like the mafia... "Every time I try to get out, they PULL ME BACK IN."
THAT'S DANNY. His hometown is New Orleans.
