Thanks so much for the reply. Yeah he was hired directly out of the Art Institute by Fox (did I say that already?) so it's been a few years now. It's such a shame Fox folded here, and it still boggles my mind why there aren't a million animation (and film) companies situated in Phoenix yet. I mean, it's practically California version two. (Or three, I guess, if you count most of Canada as two...) There are always rumors of film companies and such moving in, but it seems like they never get around to it. Alas.
I'm glad to hear Disney's outsourcing but staying in the country. Maybe that sounds horrible, but I feel kind of... burning hatred (directed at... whoever makes "those decisions") whenever I hear "oh, that movie was outsourced to Korea/India/wherever." I just get... Grr, so jealous and cranky. By all means, have animation companies there, but have them in the States, too! I mean, geez, I think everyone can agree, the only thing America really consistently does right is entertain people, haha. (Either with the president or actual entertainment... Teehee.)
ANYWAY, yes, thanks for the response. Sorry I rambled. :) By the way, have I ever mentioned how much I love your default icon? I had to show it to Steve the first time I saw it, he's a huge Mignola fan (me too, but he was first). :D
