Lassetter wrote a formative computer animation paper based around how in the production of this movie they went back and relearned the lessons from traditional cel animation but applied them to 3D. It's a lesson that most studios still haven't learned, unfortunately.

Good 3D animation takes just as much effort as good 2D animation. It's just capable of doing a lot more with that effort.
