True! (and an awesome movie in itself as well!) Another fun-fact; the final scenes of 'Atlantis' were also inspired by 'Cagliostro'. Specifically, the water draining out of the city-streets, and the final overhead- shot were intended as a direct homage. (also; ironically, Speilberg himself has claimed 'Cagliostro' as one of his all-time favs.) =) Thanks for pointing it out!

Robin Hood and Oliver & Company are the most underrated of the Disney Animated Features. I know critics didn't like it as well, but I would consider Oliver & Company as the beginning of the Renaissance Era as it has much more in common with those movies in terms of style. It showed that songs and big stars could carry a Disney movie. I'm also shocked that you talked about The Great Mouse Detective without once mentioning Vincent Price or that they included the current voices of Mickey and Donald in the cast!

I love Oliver and Company and its true that it could be considered the first of the Renaissance. For us we thought Little Mermaid was the start as it had a pup culture impact that Oliver and Company never had. The Little Mermaid along with most of the films of the Renaissance become events that were must see. You also had more of the "I Want" songs and other parts of what most people now call the Disney formula. As far as Great Mouse Detective, I do think that its an interesting note that the voices of Mickey and Donald, fresh off Mickey's Christmas Carol were included as was the hiring of legend Vincent Price. I could have added that in but that wasn't necessarily the story I was trying to tell. For our version of the story I wanted to tell about the transition between the older and younger animation team, the reason they were kicked off the lot, and the people who would go on to be key players in the future. Thanks for your comment and for watching! -Josh

I think that the 70s and 80s aren't called "the dark ages" because the films of that era weren't financially successful. Most of them were. I think they're called that because most people don't remember those films as all time classics like they do with other eras that came before and after the bronze age.

Totally agree. I think that Disney's budget cuts really hurt their ability to make these films into long lasting gems. No merchandising. No big advertising campaigns. No fanfair. Just a release and thats it. In recent years we've seen more love for these films, and Winnie the Pooh has always stuck around, but people are finding these movies now especially with Disney Plus. -Josh

I could be wrong, but I'm starting think that it was a dark era for the company, not the audience.

The name "Disney" no longer meant quality at this point so the animation division was making money, but not enough. The worst really is the live action division at the time.

Super Excited for your Disney Dark Age video that you put up. Hope you do the Renaissance, Post Renaissance and the Revival eras sooner than later. In addition, You got to give credit to _Great Mouse Detective_ and _Oliver & Company_ as these films made money and saved Disney animation division following the Black Cauldron bombing at the Box Office. If these films (mostly Great Mouse Detective) bombed or were not financially successful it would mark the end of Disney's animation division and we wouldn't be getting the Disney Renaissance.

Sorry, one thing is not correct: The great mouse detective was not colored with the computer, the first Disney animated movie colored with computers ( and I’m talking about the characters, like creating virtual cels) was The Rescuers Down Under. The system was first tested on one scene of The Little Mermaid ( the final one with the ship and the rainbow), it was also tested for an intro of one Disney weekly TV show ( can’t remember if it was Wonderful world of Disney but one of those TV shows) where you see Mickey on top of Epcot Spaceship Earth, that Mickey was colored with the CAPS software, but Great Mouse Detective, Oliver and Company and The Little mermaid were all painted on cels. The computer backgrounds in 3d of the Big Ben in Great Mouse Detective were made in 3d with the computer but then each single frame got transferred onto cels, normally painted on the backs and put as animated backgrounds, same thing for Oliver and Company and the few 3D backgrounds present in the little mermaid.

There are definitely different lists and I understand why some people see the first half seperate from the second half. For me I keep them all together as none of these films ever made a ton of money, most of them all share the same scratchy xerox style of animation, and in terms of leadership, the animation team didn't have major leadership and support after Walt's death (nor did the whole company) until Eisner and Wells came in to take over the company, where the brought in lots of new people to run the animation team and question the current state of Disney animation. It's just my take. I totally get why some would split this era.

Monkey's fighting Nazis though, what's not to like. Disney's Winnie the Pooh though is a very mixed bag. In no way is it a 'small book', being an insanely popular piece of English Children's literature. Walt's hope for it was that it'd look like the original art, not how it finally ended up.

I do think they tried to stay close to the original drawings and of course there will always be people upset that they weren't close enough, but Winnie the Pooh and his friends are more popular than ever, probably selling more A. A. Milne books after it came out than before. Despite the lack of resemblance and the addition of Americanized characters, fans of the book can't be too upset that their favorite literary characters are still in the public eye. As far as Reynard and Scruffy, I wonder if they will ever pick up those films in some way. The studio has always gone back to old ideas. Robin Hood is different enough from Reynard that it could be seen as different, although Nick from Zootopia could be see as being similar to that character. It might be years before we see Reynard if at all. For Scruffy I think it would make an interesting live action film with animated monkeys, similar to the CGI they did for the live action Jungle Book. I'd like to see a monkey punch a nazi for sure. -Josh

Let's be fair no Disney take is really loyal to its original source (The Fox and the Hound is barely anything like the dark as hell original book). Pooh at least halfway tried to represent the flow of the originals. I'm glad it hasn't quite usurped the books, which still have their separate own follow ons and merchandise, but I do think Disney's take is one brand the company struggle not to input their own magic into. Many will tell you that the 'golden age' for Disney's Pooh was the 80s and 90s however, when the New Adventures TV series and some of the more experimental sequels were being made.

For someone new to the franchise it would be just a chaotic jumble. It is a shame as the books were really enjoyable. And having rewatched it post Disney+ a well directed team should be able to do wonders with it. As far as the xerox method goes for the other films. Not everyone is a critic. If anything I think it adds a charm to them, and fits I think the era when they were made.

This bronze-era Disney sounds a lot like modern Disney. Re-using old material to produce some remakes/live action remakes. Even their new StarWars trilogy is so safe, it's basically the exact same story than the 1977 trilogy, but IMHO done worse. They really need to get their mojo back, and quick.

I think too many people think of the "dark age" as some time when every Disney movie was bad, but Winnie the Pooh is a top merch selling character, and people love many of these movies without really knowing that they are part of some dark age. The storytelling was still there, and the company wasn't losing money on them (except Black Cauldron). I'd personally prefer to watch any of these movies over Chicken Little or Home on the Range any day.

In terms of breaking out and being more independent my generation thinks like Britney Spears & Christina Aguilera. I forget that Don Bluth, Tim Burton, Henry Selick, and Jeffrey Katzenberg did it first before starting their own animated studios. These four icons I would look up to more than breaking out in a controversial way that Britney & Christina did. Not to say anything against them or feminism, but just how long Disney has been putting out animators and stars.

I was fortunate to see most of the Walt era animated and live action classics on the big screen due to rereleases at the time. To me the films of the bronze era are much better than the woke crap being produced today like Lightyear, Wish and Strange World, just to name 2 recent bombs. I love the Disney era I grew up in, especially the ability to experience all the Walt era classic and Disneyland and Walt Disney World before they became overcrowded money grab broken down theme parks.

Wow. That is interesting history. I recently watched all the movies. I am pleasantly surprised. From the name Dark Age, I expected to have a lot of bad movies. However that isn't the case. There are movies I like in this age. There are two awesome fox movies and one awesome fantasy movie. Three movies out of eight isn't that bad. I have a certain fondness for foxes. I think they are really beautiful and cool animals. There are mediocre Disney movies about animals looking cute and that is about it. For me Dumbo and Lady and the Tramp went that way. These foxes don't do this. They get to do interesting things. That makes the movies significantly better. I find that foxes have changed over time. Pinoccio was the second movie in the canon. It had the first Disney fox, Honest John. Foxes have a negative stereotype of being sly troublemakers. Honest John is so stereotyped, it is painfully cringy. He has a minor role in the movie. He just tricks Pinocchio into going off and causing trouble. The next fox is Robin Hood. I like this movie a whole lot. It is a cool adaption of a medival story. It is a movie that launched a thousand furries. I like furries. This is a rare case of a story that shows the harsh reality of the Medeval era. It is refreshing. There is rampant classism with the royalty taking all the money and leaving most of the population poor. Robin Hood himself is an awesome fox character. He does fit the stereotype pretty well. However he is a good guy. He has good intentions behind his mischif. I think Robin Hood is ahead of his times. What he is really doing is wealth redistribution. What was treated as criminal back then is something that the government does in modern times. In later times, there is democracy and socialism. The system is much better for the poor than feudalism was. Robin Hood is an example of a bad boy done right. This guy is a rebel. He goes against the corrupt government and corrupt system. There is a cool appeal. Robin Hood doesn't go too far. He is very kind to his friends and allies. He is also very respectful of Maid Marion. There is too much romantization of abuse. The most notorious example is Twilight. Robin Hood avoids this compleatly. He can have a healthy and wholesome romance with Maid Marion. The major hurdle for them to overcome is the exterior problem of classism. The next fox is Todd from the Fox and the Hound. Todd is a complete aversion of the stereotype. He is characterized from the start as being very friendly. He does get into trouble, but it more out of wanting to be with a friend rather than any kind of malice. The Fox and the Hound is my favorite movie before the Rennaisance Era. It is a strong contender for my top ten Disney Movies. The fox and the hound are sopposed to be enimies. However they become friends. Then they have to overcome society's efforts to split them apart. So in a clever bit of writing, there is no true villain. Having feuding groups is enough for an exciting story. I have noticed that Fox and the Hound is like Previous animal stories, but better. There are scenes of little animals looking cute. Yet it goes beyond that and have an interesting story. It also tackles animal rights issues. Bambi tackles the issue of hunting. 101 Dalmations tackles the issue of animal fur. The Fox and the Hound tackles both. I do like how the hunter, Amos, is fleshed out. He is not a faceless menace like the hunter in Bambi. He is not a pure evil villain like Cruella. Amos is fleshed out more, and I like this approach better. He is obviously cruel to Todd. The cruelty is in hunting Todd. However Amos does have genuine care and affection for his dogs, Copper and Chief. The dogs are motivated to hunt mainly for following orders. The movie doesn't do a good job explaining why Amos wants to hunt. It is a nitpick for an overall great movie. I like how the movie shows both sides, and lets the audience come to thier conclusion. If I had to choose, I would pick the fox side. It is wrong to kill animals for thier fur and nothing else. Between Fox and the Hound and 101 Dalmations, I feel like doing what Stella McCartney does and have vegan fashion. The ending was bitter sweet. I think it is for the best. Todd is a wild animal. Even though he grew up with a human, he belongs in the wild. The game preserve is the best place for him, since it keeps him safe from hunters. Todd does adjust quickly and even gets a girlfriend. The recent fox Movie is Zootopia. That has Nick Wilde as a major fox character. This is a movie for the modern furry fandom. Furries are awesome. Nick is a compete subversion of the stereotype. He starts out being a sly criminal. However later it is reavealed that he wanted to be a good guy all along. He was forced into his stereotyplical role by a discriminating society. Zootopia is like Robin Hood in having more humanlike furries and for having social commentary. With the similarity, I like to imagine that Nick is a descendent of Robin Hood and Maid Marion. Now that I think of it, maybe Judy is a descendent of the rabit family in Robin Hood. Zootopia has modern take with the modern city. It also hhas the modern issues of racism, sexism and police brutality. Zootopia is also like Fox and the Hound in having a fox with an unlikly friend. In Fox and the Hound, the friend was a hound. This puts the fox in a prey position in a preditor and prey situation. In Zotopia, the friend was a rabbit. This puts the fox in the preditor position, which the the exact opposite.

Zootopia does make the discrimination against foxes a thin veil of racism. It does this to animal species. There is a real world race of Asian, particularly the eastern kind. They evolve over time like the foxes. They start out being stereotypical. Then they start going away from the stereotype. Asians have a stereotype of being sly troublemakers. They also have a stereotypical look of having yellow skin and buck teeth. This stereotype is really racist. This would not fly in modern times due to political correctness. The most notorious example of east Asian racism in a Disney movie is the Siamese cats in Lady and the Tramp. Yeah, they are stereotypical and racist to the point of being cringy and painful. These cats have a stereotypical appearence and behavior. They cause a lot of mischief, and then have the cunning to frame Lady for it. This leads to Lady going off into the streets, and having her own adventure. Later there was a Siamese cat in the Aristocats. It is a signifant improvement in my opinion. This cat has a very sterytypical look. It is really cringy. However this cat is much friendlier. He even helps Thomas save the cat family at the end of the movie. So there isn't the sterotypical behavior. In much later times there is Mulan. I consider both Lady and the Tramp and the Aristocats to be racist against east Asians. I don't consider Mulan of this though. I have always been a fan of the character of Mulan. She is even my favorite of the Disney Princess franchise. I like it when a woman of color kicks butt and saves the day. Mulan is an amazing example of this. She is awesome. I have gained even more appreaciation for Mulan. Compared to older movies, she is a huge improvement for depictions of East Asians. The sterotype is almost completely vanished. Mulan clearly has an East Asian look, but she doesn't resemble the stereotyped caricatures. She has some trickery, but it is for a very good reason. Mulan was trying to save her father by taking his place in the war. She disguised herself as a man, because the army was sexist against women. In a way, Mulan is the Bruce Lee of Disney. She get to be a heroic fighter. She learns martial arts along the way. She defies the old stereotypes of Asians being sly trouble makers. In modern times the idea of Asians being good at martial arts has turned into a positive stereotype. It is problematic, but it isn't quite as offensive as the old stereotypes. The racism of east Asians long ago is very messed up. Maybe it was because Americas were fighting WW2 and Vietnam War, and then they got all paranoid about their Asian opponents. It is like how people get all paranoid about Middle Eastern Asian people today. That racism is also seriously messed up. Oh good lord. Don't even get me started on that.

I like the Black Cauldron. This movie is so cool. It is a shame that it didn't get more popular. I love fantasy. It is the biggest interest for me. I am so eager to get fantasy that I end up liking fantasy shows that many people don't like. I like the Warcraft movie, the Hobbit Trilogy and the last two seasons of Game of Thrones. One of these movies is the Black Cauldron. I think a big reason why this movie bombed is due to the timing of released and not so much on the quality of the movie itself. Back then, animation was in the age ghetto. People thought of it just being for kids. The Black Cauldron was a more mature movie than the typical Disney movie. The adventure is so big and grand. The action is a lot more intense. There are scary zombies and other monsters. The Black Cauldron was in a problematic position when it first came out. It was too scary for the kids that like to watch Disney movies. However the animation and the Disney brand makes it too embarrassing for an older people. In modern times, people are more accepting that adults can enjoy cartoons. There are cartoons that have a sizable adult fanbase. There is Disney, Pixar, Pokemon and My Little Pony. There are even cartoons that are more mature, like the Simpsons. If Black Cauldron came out today, it probably would have found an audience and succeeded a lot easier. It is gaining a cult following. So that would count for something. I find the Black Cauldron both unique and enjoyable. I didn't care for it as a kid. However as an adult, I really got into it. It is where Disney tried to make an intense fantasy movie. That is cool. I wonder if one of the main film maker saw one of the old Tolkein cartoons, and then got inspired to do a similar movie. Even the naration at the beginning of the Black Cauldron sounds like that of a Tolken cartoon. I wonder if that is done by the same voice actor. There are three Tolkein cartoons. Ranken and Bass did the Hobbit and the Return of the King. Bakshi did the Lord of the Rings, specificly the first two books of the trilogy. Return of the King was the last book of the trilogy. I like the premise of Black Cauldron. It is interesting. It is basically the Holy Grail getting the Lord of the Rings treatment. In fantasy stories, there are magical items. It is even a staple. In folklore there are plenty of magical rings that do good things for people. The Lord of the Rings subverts this. There was a helpful rings in the Hobbit. Then in Lord of the Rings, it is revealed to be the evil ring of the dark lord. Then the heros go on a quest to destroy the evil ring. Of all magic items, the most famous is the Holy Grail of Arthurian mythology. It is a wonderful magical cup to save the land. It also restors life. In the Black Cauldron, it is like the search for the Holy Grail. However the Grail has become evil. There is an evil cauldron. The big bad wants it so he can revive corpses' and make an army of zombies. The cauldon can't really be destroyed. So the heroes find a way to make it's magic stop working. That is interesting. I think the Black Cauldron has some of the best critters in all Disney movies. Critters usually don't do anything but look cute and act funny. Kids would like them, but they are pointless for the story. In the Black Cauldron, the critters are still there, but they are very useful and important to the plot. Henwen uses magical powers to show where the cauldron is. Creeper is the main henchman for the bad guy. Gurgi gives up his life to stop the cauldron's magic. He does come back to life later. I like to call Gurgi the fluffy Gollum. Taran makes for a cool protagonist. He looks a lot like Arthur from the Sword and the Stone. This movie did come out later. So I wonder if it can continue. The Sword and the Stone does end with Arthur aquiring a magic sword. In the Black Caudron, Taren acquires a magical sword of his own towards the beginning. Then he moves on and goes on his own grail quest. Arthur goes on a grail quest in the origional legends. I have very few bad things to say about the Black Cauldron. It is a very underrated film. There are two parts that was awkward. I think it was probably not the fault of the film makers but just due to the troubles they had. I found it wierd that Tauren goes to the villains castle twice. Maybe there wasn't enough budget and time to make a separate dungeon for Tauren to explore. The villain castle is best saved for the climax. I also find it wierd that Tauren doesn't fight very much in this movie. Heck the whole trio of heros can become a fighting force. Tauren can be the warrior fighting the opponents in melee with his magic sword. Elonwy can be the magician blasting spells to the opponents from afar. Fleudder can play magical songs to heal and support the other two members. That would be so cool. One could go all out and have an RPG party in a movie. I don't know if Dungeons and Dragons came out yet at the time, but that would still be cool. I think that the reason why Tauren didn't fight much is because the action was taken out by the censors. That is unfortunate. I wondered if it is possible to find an uncensored R rated version of the Black Cauldron. I would like to check that out.

Then there are other movies. One was Winnie the Pooh. I am surprised that he is in here. He is one of the most famous and iconic characters of Disney. I never got into Pooh as a kid. When I watch the Pooh movie now, I still don't get it. Now I understand what is going on in the story. That part is easy. I just don't understand why Pooh is appealing. I personally found the movie to be dull. The lack of one whole plot really sets the movie back. There are plenty of better Disney movies out there in the canon. There are even better Disney movies in the Bronze Age. I think the greatest and most innovative character for Walt Disney is Snow White. Snow White is awesome. For one thing she stars in the first animated movie in history. For another she starts the Disney Princess franchise. Walt Disney went on to make Cinderella and Aurora. They are like Snow White in being Disney Princesses. I think I like Cinderella best out of the the three. Then more Disney princesses are made later. I am a big fan of both Disney movies and for Disney Princesses. One Disney moves from Micky to Snow White, that is when he gets into the good stuff. My favorite Disney character of the canon is Elsa. She is just like the Disney Princesses, even though she is not in the official list. Having three really good movies and one super popular movie makes up half of the Bronze Age. It is not too shabby for a company that struggled with the death of its founder. Then there is the rest of the movie. Rescues and Great Mouse Detective are pretty cool. Aristocats and Oliver and Company were pretty dull but they have some merits. The Godlen and Silver ages of Disney wasn't all good. Both ages had thier duds. So it is no surprize that that the Bronze Age had its duds too. Yet even then the four lesser Bronze Age films still had a decent plot. That is significantly better than the lesser movies of earlier times. Only the Winnie the Pooh movie has no single plot. Maybe this is the sign that the Disney company is putting on a higher standard of quality. My favorite era is the Renaisance. I will look forward to going over them. I am a 90s kid, and that was my childhood. I completely forgot about the Rescuers sequal. However I loved all the other movies. Yet even I admit that even there, some movies are considered duds by people. Personally I still like these movies all the same. I think Hercules and Hunchback of Notre Dame are two of the most underrated DIsney movies ever. Fox and the Hound and the Black Cauldron are underrated. I think out of all the Renaisance movies, Pocahontas is the one that gets any critism I find convincing. It is critisized for being racist. The depiction of Native Americans is significantly better than in Peter Pan. Brother Bear came later. It doesn't get critisism. I don't know whether it is due to Brother Bear being more PC or because it is just an obscure movie. I hope better depictions of Native Americans will come in the future of Disney. It is horrible that the Disney company went through development hell during the bronze age. Fortuatly things got better in the Renaisance.
