Summary

  • Some Hollywood franchises fare better in the animated medium due to their well-suited characters and stories, as well as fans' preference for the original animated properties.
  • The dominance of live-action movies in Hollywood is evident by their higher gross in comparison to animated movies, leading to increased pressure for studios to remake animated classics as live-action films.
  • Animation as an art form has gained more respect over time, but there remains a stigma associated with it when compared to live-action.
