So U can 💤 well @ 🌃 & the 🏯 of UR 🧠 will be 🔆

Reasons you should watch this movie if you haven't:

It's one of the first Disney animated films to utilize CG animation, seamlessly blending CG settings with hand drawn animation (seriously, just watch the final clocktower scene it's a work of art!!!)

Features an incredible score by Henry Mancini, who also scored for The Pink Panther films and Breakfast at Tiffany's

Has one of the most disturbing/scary opening scenes of any Disney animated film

Has a burlesque show about halfway through the film

Features Vincent Price, famed horror actor, as the voice of the villain Professor Ratigan (and he sings!)

Genuinely has one of the most heart stopping climaxes of any Disney film, I could write a whole other post about this but y'all NEED to watch it

Has a protagonist who is very arrogant and self-assured but reveals many moments of genuine care and fondness that make him wholly likeable

Dramatic balloon chase!

A very heartwarming father-daughter relationship

Some absolutely incredible character animation like wow

With a heavy heart, I come to you all with the news announced by close friends of Cat Frazier that she had passed away on Monday, June 29.

She had been running @animatedtext since 2012, with her impact on the internet SHAPING tumblr. If you have a years long history on this site, you’ve seen her art.

She ran a venue in Oakland called Oakland Secret, a punk venue where I’d vend at regularly as an artist. She made a safe space for queer artists, artists of color, and local furs too. I am forever grateful for her work both in the Bay Area creative scene and online, and am forever changed by the totality of her impact.

I’ll be linking some articles from the 2010’s about her impact online: The Fader | Action | Jezebel | ObviouslySocial

I invite you to take a visit through her archive, and if you have a long history with this site like I do, it’s like walking down memory lane.
