A measure of how well Disney succeeds at reclaiming its heritage and how the two animation cultures coexist will be tested when "Bolt" opens in theaters Nov. 21. Disney's new computer-animated film is the first entirely overseen by Pixar's creative guru, John Lasseter, and tech whiz Ed Catmull, who took charge of Disney Animation after the acquisition.
That's a lot of pressure.
I still think that having both Disney Animation and Pixar doing digital animation is rather redundant, especially when you have the same people in Lasseter and Catmull doing the quality control check. I wouldn't be surprised, if The Princess and the Frog becomes a huge hit, that Disney Animation concentrates solely on hand-drawn animation after that while Pixar exclusively do the digital animation and beyond.
Zz.
