Is there a reason there's no animated films folder mentioning non-Disney films with Disneyeqsue animation (like Don Bluth's work, Ferngully The Last Rainforest, Amblimation, early 2D Dreamworks Animation, and early Warner Brothers animated films)?

Am I allowed to add these examples?

Did you read the description? If you did, you would know those are excluded, and why.

So, those are excluded because they aren't parodies? Because they also mentioned homages, and I feel like those films are clearly meant to be homages to classic Disney.

Read the whole description, including the last paragraph before the examples.

Are you talking about the "not to be confused with being a Follow the Leader to Disney films" part? Because that rule doesn't make sense.

It does when you consider that those films were made during the Disney Renaissance, so were copycatting the studio's look and formula, not a homage to it.

Okay, thinking about it, Animesque doesn't preclude shows that may have an anime style just to cash in, so perhaps we don't need to exclude such examples here (though best to state how they follow the style, not accuse any of ripping Disney off... unless we have Word of God confirming it).

What do others feel?

EDIT: And I'm sorry that the tone of some of my previous replies was too snarky. Even if you didn't find them rude, it's still good for this site to try to be understanding when communicating with others, and that's an examples I prefer to set and follow.

Here's the problem: A lot of people here have been misusing this trope on other pages to refer to Follow the Leader animated movies from the 90s (e.g. Thumbelina, Anastasia) or some kind of element that reminds them of Disney (e.g. Disneyfication, fairy dust, Disney Creatures of the Farce), while it isn't about those things but rather just the art style itself, despite the name. But speaking of the name, it was referring to the fact this was a Super-Trope to Animesque since both tropes are styles inspired by Disney animation and anime respectively. Also, the misuse of this is like how All Animation Is Disney (which is about an animated work not made by Disney being mistaken for Disney) was misused to refer to the Disney-esque art style of a non-Disney work. Someone needs to keep track of both this and All Animation Is Disney and remove a wick for the former that refers to a Follow the Leader movie or some element that reminds the editor of a Disney movie (and not the style itself) and for the latter that refers to the art style.

Um, could you edit that post so it's in paragraphs. It looks messy as it is.
