  • The Road To Ruin: The Black Cauldron (1985)
    2024/01/30

It was animated by three generations of Disney artists. It had more directors than presidents of Mount Rushmore. Three CEOs oversaw it. And it tanked. And by tanked, I mean it took down the entire animation division of Disney for years. And that’s just scratching the surface.
