Don't expect long form animation to go the way of the movie Western anytime soon.
... [Fox] Filmed entertainment posted operating income of $391 million compared with $251 million a year ago, thanks to the box-office performance of "Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs," which News Corp. said was the highest-grossing film of all time internationally with more than $880 million in ticket sales ...
Then there was Ice Age 2, The Simpsons Movie, Alvin and the Chipmunks .... and of course all the MacFarlane franchises ...
Rupert and his minions know good thing$ when they see them. Which is why they make so much animation.

So why don't they cough up some more budget money for Starz so they can hire a full crew for the Simpsons,(or get going on a second feature)?
Put yourself in their shoes.
If you were getting the product you wanted at the price you wanted NOW, why would you pay more?
Wait a minute...you talking about Starz or Pixar...?
Disney is hiring!
