And I want to say THANK YOU for writing this! I'm not deeply into animation (simply because I don't watch movies that much...), but I do really enjoy watching it when I do simply because the visual styles and film techniques possible with animation often appeal to me much more than with live-action.<br />Anyway, I really enjoyed reading this post, and I've actually been wanting to make the same kind of point when I talk to people about Skylanders and how downhill its storytelling has gone each game, but I think I'll just refer people to this post now, because you summed up what I wanted to say way better than I have :PNibeliltnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660789765534168781.post-35515046817567690752013-06-18T04:16:14.844+01:002013-06-18T04:16:14.844+01:00I find that the subject can be apply to film in ge...I find that the subject can be apply to film in general. I mean, there are lots of action movies animated or not, that are called fun. I don't mind the use of the word, because I find fun to be a another way to say entertained by a film. And if makes a large factor on me liking a film or not, depending on the film, and I judged it fairly as such. I do think it's bullcrap to called animated films kiddle, and you make dozens of good arguments. This is just my own personal take on the subject though.damien hendersonnoreply@blogger.com
