October 19, 2015KOTLT 035: Analyzing Don Bluth
In this episode we talk about the man, the myth, the legend, pioneer Don Bluth! A hero to some, and villain to others, this man went toe-to-toe with the top dogs and won in the 80s and 90s. Where do you stand on the man’s mark in animation history? Let us know!
We talk as well a little bit about the book “The Pixar Touch”.
NOTE - Pablo’s audio is unfortunately a little choppier than usual. We’re sorry about that!
