20 – The Fox and the Hound

2y ago

—

For what is the final Xerox era Disney film, Alex takes a look at the declining state of Disney in popular perception overall, not just for animation. Disney scrambles to recover, and makes a bunch of attempts to return to form and save costs. Alex and Terra clown on how bad the opening of this movie is, while offering slight praise at how even the…

19 – The Rescuers

2y ago

—

The second movie Disney released in 1977, Alex uses the history section to focus on the company’s wider changes and the way this sets up the management transition that precedes the 90s renaissance. Production of The Rescuers is especially tense as the old guard animators and new hires clash over teaching styles and production decisions, which sets …

18 – The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh

2y ago

—

Disney released two movies in 1977, so Alex focuses on animation department politics and Winnie the Pooh facts in this episode, and saves wider company stuff for the next one, because god forbid we have an episode with a light history section in it. While this episode features multiple guests, Elise McGouran has so much to say about this movie we s…

17 – Robin Hood

2y ago

—

Yes, we talk about furries. Terra also talks a lot today. These points are unrelated. This time, ROY Disney dies. Before he died though, he oversaw the completion of Walt Disney World. This went, uh…well, it went. This, coupled with the energy crisis and shuffle of leadership, sends the company further into the chaos that Walt’s death created. Need…

16 – The Aristocats

2+ y ago

—

The corporate structure of Disney falls into disarray after Walt dies, and the company finds itself in creative paralysis trying to stay true to the “What Would Walt Do” mantra. This, naturally, involves focusing on the parks more than actual movies, which means Alex decides the most prudent thing to do is talk to her dad about accounting and finan…

15 – The Jungle Book

2+ y ago

—

Walt dies in this one, so the history section is long and complicated because Walt was extremely petty and couldn’t help screwing people over (both family and employees), even until his final breath. Walt’s brother wasn’t much better, he just decided to commit tax fraud primarily. Alex and Terra discuss if tickets sold or money made is the best way…

14 – The Sword in the Stone

2+ y ago

—

This week, Alex stresses Walt’s disinterest in animation and the resultant corporate changes surrounding the production of The Sword in the Stone, including the beginnings of intergenerational animator drama. Only one of our interview guests had actually seen Sword in the Stone, so the bulk of the work falls to Terra and Alex to discuss how mid thi…

13 – One Hundred and One Dalmatians

2+ y ago

To start off this first real episode back, Alex makes the rather bold assumption that we would post this before a full year had passed between episodes (oops) before digging into the company-wide changes and production issues surrounding 101 Dalmatians, including the advent of Xerox animation. Alex also examines the heteronormative attitudes baked …

Episode 7.2 – The Package Films Part 2

4y ago

Alex and Harrison’s sanity is tested as they discuss the four Package films, a task so stressful the episode had to be split in two in order to be manageable. This episode focuses on Melody Time and The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad. Alex gives a very brief summary of the history she covered in Episode 7.1 before launching into discussion of M…

5 – Bambi

Alex’s research got away from her again this week, and thus goes into detail on the production history of Bambi, from animation reference research and techniques to adaptational changes, as well as reactions to the film upon release. Harrison goes in on Thumper and the issues with Disney films overall he represents. Alex ponders the eternal questio…

4 – Dumbo

4y ago

—

Let’s get ready to Dumbooooooooooo!! Alex went overboard on research this week and showed up to record with a dozen pages of notes on the history of United States labor relations, the rise of unions, the 1941 animators’ strike, and Walt’s attitudes towards unions and “communism.” With this context, Alex and Harrison dig in properly, specifically di…

This week, Alex goes through Fantasia’s production history, the distinctions between American and European animation styles, the sound design woes that plagued the film’s release, and Fantasia’s critical reception.
