What's Animating the Cartoon Communiity Today

Traditional animators are running scared. The art of animation is sometimes seen today as some tradional artisan skill like glassblowing. It is ability that requires an artist's hand and eye. And to make it modern for this day and age some people think it must be computized. Disney abandoned traditional animation after looking on in dismay at Pixar success. Luckily John Lassiter after being made Disney new creative head reinstated traditional animation. Now, Cartoon Brew, and the cartoon community are incensed at mindless comments by an animation ignorant critics.
