However. The animation was a little shocking to me, because I remember it as some sort of artistic vanguard.

ReplyDeleteHunh. When my kids were little they grew up with Beauty and the Beast, Fox and the Hound, The Great Mouse Detective, Little Mermaid, etc. I oned every Kids Bop tape ever made. When they got older they were banned from watching Ren and Stimpy and Beavis and Butthead. Then child number three reached that golden age. By then, I didn't care. She watched whatever she wanted. Probably why she is a fugitive wanted in three states for armed robbery.

As a matter of fact I did see her at the post office. On a flyer hanging on the wall...
