The older movies are more atractive because of the flaws, you see the pencil strokes changing between frames. Today IMO they are too flawless.
That's actually a really good point. The flaws make the beauty more human the same way music recorded reel to reel back in the 70s was very human because of the limitations of the day. And it is beautiful.
Not that a flawless thing can't be beautiful. I just have a bias towards the humanness (pencil strokes, tape flutter) of the older stuff because that's what I grew up with.
I’ve been listening to an album of 20’s and 30’s music. So good and so relevant. You have to find live music to hear that now for sure.
I also like how when a kid was a voice actor, they sounded like a damn kid, mistakes and all.
The Aristocats comes to mind, the song Scales and Arpeggios is a great example. I hate hearing weird robotic kids who are flawless or its clear they edited the shit out of a dozen takes.

That’s one of the awesome things about Bluey. The voice acting is genuinely kids talking with their mums and dads.
Was at least, looks like Joe Blum wanted to end it, and Disney is keeping its corpse alive to license the shit out of it with no new episodes in production. Too bad really, but if the creator wanted to move on, he should have been allowed to.
