Pre-CAPS system (google it), I actually find many of their movies visually dull. Sure, they're fine stories, but there's nothing special about how the animation works. Not for me at least... especially when they stopped cleaning the lineart and you began to see the pencil markings/ink/etc. in a way that makes it look very rough (I think that started with 101 Dalmatians and went all the way thru Great Mouse Detective).
Though in all fairness I had forgotten about Fantasia when I said that.
