If love to see hand drawn Disney films again. I mean bring the entire style back. Disney films stood out back then. Today all the animated films look the same artistically. Hand drawn films always had their own style whether it were from Disney, WB, etc.


They also cost more money to make, which is probably why they stopped.

I agree, though.

The animation is cartoony, the characters are cartoony, the environment is cartoony, the colors are cartoony.
The only thing slightly realistic is the light I guess?

Why realistic? :D

This is good point, WW HD is all cartoonish, but lighting, sun, sky are realistic and that's pretty good combination.


Except in WW Toon Link has a potato head. It makes it better than anything else out there.

What? You honestly think Disney and Pixar films look the same? How about Kung Fu  and  How to Train Your Dragon? Those look the same to you?  Most individual films from the big studios these days have their own look, and since Tangled, Disney's animated films have all had a very distinct style that's recognisable almost instantly. 

Don't get me wrong, I love 2D animation, but there are a wide range of visual styles used for CGI films -- just as wide as 2D, in my view.

OT: Cartoony. Tangled was the first CGI film to captivate me like Disneys old 2D films. I don't think photorealistic rendering techniques were even used for ,Tangled as nothing about it looks remotely real, to me. The characters are more realistically proportioned than, say, Frozen, and there are those incredible cloth and hair simulations, but that's where the realism ends.

You could maybe define something like Wall-E, or the real-world segments of Inside Out as stylised realism, but even that would be a stretch, IMO.

Tangled is not even a little bit realistic. Does everyone else see the world through fish eyes or something? Bioshock is "stylized realism." Tangled is the Disney animation art style in CG.

Honest question, not judging or anything, but you seriously don't see similarities between this:

 

and this:

 

 

For me, they both fall into same category, 'stylized realism', where realistic (or semi-realistic) meets cartoonish art style.



both but above all give me diversity.

Both has their own charm and appeal, so both are perfectly fine

Elizabeth was deliberately designed to look like a Disney princess to contrast with the rest of that world. It's a character designed in a vacuum compared to the rest of the franchise. None of the other characters look like that. Like at all.

And when you take characters out of a Tangled (actually, mostly you can just take out their heads), you get backgrounds that look fairly realisitic, yet stylized. Just one example:

Hence, 'stylized realism'.



It depends on waht the game is.. If it's Mario is Cartoony, if it's Uncharted it's realistic. I don't know why these "fans" want Zelda to be realistic, because it was ALWAYS cartoony.
