Okay, so I've heard the reasons for why Chicken Little is considered Disney's first "all CG animated feature." Dinosaur used "digitally enhanced" live-action photography for the backgrounds instead of creating everything from scratch. But is that any reason to snub it? The ad campaign for Chicken Little made it seem as though Disney had never ventured into the realm of CG before. The technicality of "all-CG" is easily lost on the critics, press and audience who overlook the "all" and think "oh, Disney's first computer film." I imagine it must be disheartening to those artists at The Secret Lab who spent years working on creating realistic looking dinosaurs, pushing the envelope of computer graphics like never before.
Let's give those guys some credit! Dinosaur is still a stunning film, even if it does follow a plot semi-similar to another dinosaur movie...

Hey Erica! I didnt know you had a blog too! Thanks for the link, Ill be sure to put one on my page as well.
Yeah I thought Dinosaurs was a good looking movie too. I wonder when Dinosaurs 2 and Dinosaurs 1 1/2 will be out on Disney DVD? Oh, Laseter probably stomped those releases....
