Who says hand-drawn animation is over?
Sylvain Chomet's latest animated adventure, "The Illusionist" will open this year's Edinburgh International Film Festival (EIFF). ... Chomet's film is a fairy-tale depiction of Scotland and is set against the backdrop of the Scottish capital, where Chomet currently lives and works ...
... The Illusionist is about an old-fashioned music hall entertainer struggling to survive in the fading days of vaudeville ... More than 70 animators worked on the film inside a studio complex created by Chomet – the creator of the hit movie Belleville Rendez-vous – in George Street. ...
See? There's still animation being produced that isn't built in a computer. You just have to sniff it out, since there's not much of it going on in California anymore. (Jim Brooks and Matt Groening are slow off the dime getting the next Simpsons feature going.)

From what I see, 2D animated movies are only dead in America.

That's because they're still enjoying their fortunes they made from the FIRST one.
Have a happy day all you SUCKERS that do all the work FOR them to enjoy their riches!!
When it's over....it's O.V.E.R. and you get to join the masses of unemployed.
An early trailer for "The Illusionist" can be seen here:

Darn it! That's the trouble with having lots of money. You're just not motivated.
Sure glad I don't have that problem.
Seriously, I doubt if that's the problem. When are people like that ever satisfied with their money and success? How many people leave the game when they win a hand or leave the casino when they win the jackpot. No, they stay and play on. Losing makes you quit. Winning makes you want to win more.
I'd sure as hell want to know what the actual reasons are, though.
an extra long trip around the world?
His stuff is getting better. Its good when a producer of animation gets better with successive releases. You can see the development unfold. Cant wait to see this one. And then own it on DVD. Then the world will be MINE....ALL MINE!!!!! baaahhh haahaahaa haaaa!!!!!
