| 26 | she/they | blogger and video editor focused on 1960s-1970s media, primarily animation and film. History, analysis, and lots of little birdies
Animation discourse has rotted so strongly that the few people remaining are either legacy critics hiding in secluded discord servers or unchallenging nostalgia bait. The scene I once loved slipped into safe regurgitation of the acceptable cartoon topics or utter bigotry. It’s unfortunate.

Williams, an otherwise capable artist, was always a sloppy director for his constant ability to never finish films on time. Damning his professional career for the next three decades. Yet, his commercial works for film and ad agencies remind you when it was finished he could turn in solid stuff.

Major takeaway: Never stop producing commentary tracks. Even the worst schlock deserves expert analysis and deconstruction. I want to hear trusted sources dissect even the most loathsome drive-in filler.
