If Japan had Disney's technology, that would be insanely high quality! But, you gotta remember, the reason why that Disney movies are so high quality is because they're movies! Most of the animes that we see are just episodes from TV shows. So they can really only be fairly compared to other animated TV shows in America. And plus the art kinda comes from the already drawn mangas. Which isn't all the high quality to begin with. If only every pic in manga and every frame in anime was drawn like Masamune Shirow's art. That would win over any other piece of animated media. Including the likes of that 3D animated movie "The Spirits Within" by Square. (I heard Square was gonna make a Final Fantasy movie... WHERE IS IT? It's about to be 12 FF games and still no FF movie! That FF anime, Legend of the Crystals i think it was, was OK)
Yeah, anime like Perfect Blue, Ninja Scroll, and Princess Mononoke can be compared to Disney movies cause they're all movies too. Despite the high-quality in the Disney movies, the art of the anime still looks better. So, if we could combine the two some how, we could have insanely high-quality anime with a huge amount of animation frames for an even smoother finish. Hey, Square and Disney did team up out of nowhere to make the RPG, Kindom Hearts. Disney has imported one or two animes also. Disney should serious consider teaming up with someone in Japan to make a Princess Mononoke sequel!
Princess Mononoke was said to be the "Star Wars" of animated features. But can they really compare? I mean, it only took 1 Princess Mononoke release to make a great, complete story line! Also, of course, Star Wars isn't animated. But I guess you were only talking about the stories.
