Youtube recommended this to me so I watched the first 10 minutes and had to stop because it documents the period that 2D Disney animation took a complete nose dive. It's painful to see.

I love The Sweatbox. Seeing the unfinished elements of Kingdom of the Sun was a real treat. True, the movie, had they finished it, probably wouldn't have been that great since I read audiences at the test screenings felt the film was too serious and melodramatic for its own good, but the songs Sting wrote were fantastic. In the end, it's better than the studio-sanctioned documentary films since the filmmakers gave you a real feel of what it's like to work at Disney.

Yeah, as far as I'm concerned, every 2D Disney movie after The Lion King has been ugly, strange looking and shit. "Lilo and Stitch," "Tarzan" and "The Emperor's New Groove" are appallingly bad and ended Disney 2D animation.

Disney's excessive reliance on the musical comedy-drama formula caught up with them during the mid 1990s, and they tried to do more action-adventure films with no musical numbers. While I think they were good films in their own right, films like Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Treasure Planet were expensive box office flops and too much executive micromanaging helped to end 2D animation at Disney.

Ugh, I had a feeling you were one of THOSE 90s kids by the avatar. For some reason Disney cartoons without songs feel lacking. I think the over reliance on washed up pop stars like Phil Collins providing the songs was the problem.
