An emphasis on crazy, out-there concepts emerged: cars that drove themselves, self-made robots, even the original Ice Age was more off-kilter to what we usually expected in animated film.

There have, of course, been exceptions to both techniques over the years, with sci-fi particularly making a decent showing in the CG realm, but knockabout comedies it has mostly been until the last few years, when it suddenly seamed the creators of these kinds of films sort of lost the plot. But Snow White was the scene-setter, just as Toy Story, although it can’t really lay claim to have re-invented the form, dictated that all following computer animated movies should be knockabout contemporary comedies. If, as it has again been recently suggested, Edgar Rice Burroughs’ A Princess Of Mars had beaten Walt Disney’s Snow White And The Seven Dwarfs to the screen as the movies’ first animated feature film, I wonder if we would have subsequently enjoyed a near-decade of animated sci-fi adventures rather than fairytales and singing animal movies? Certainly the drawn animated medium would have suited the pulp-novel’s style of illustrations, which later found more of a home in horror and thrill comics. It’s “ Son Of Happy Feet” as first film’s hero Mumble’s kid, Erik, gets into an “all-new” adventure.
