AYRT

Good reading comprehension. One, I'm talking about the animation itself and yes, if you think the animation of, say, the Aristocats is objectively superior to Frozen's, you've got some major bias going on (although the story of Aristocats isn't anything special, either). Two, did you miss the part were I said "some"? Well, actually, I take it back - those were bad years for the Disney animation house, period, until it hit its renaissance.

I like how you got "no one is allowed to actually enjoy the art from those three decades" from "the animation of the past is not as great as people think it is."

TL;DR If your animation department loses Don Bluth and a bunch of other animators all at once, the quality of your output is going to go down significantly.

Um, neither you or AYRT said either of those things. Never even implied them.

Yes, the animation style of The Aristocats is much better than Frozen's and most people who prefer hand drawn animation to computer animation think the same thing. There have been many polls about it and there's some talk that Disney is considering reversing their position about hand drawn animation. Their computer animated films are drawing a smaller audience share than their hand drawn features did and merchandise sales are less than half as strong.

LOL So Disney movies in the 60s through 80s were bad because Don Bluth left Disney in 1979? He worked on most of the Disney animated features made in the 60s and 70s, twenty of the 30 years you say have inferior style. You're stanning for him and he's actually the guy responsible for recycling character designs in Robin Hood! He went on to do it in all four of his major successes after he left Disney. And yes, those four and several of his other animated films are also better than Frozen, Brave, or Wreck-It-Ralph.
