Line 21:
Also worth noting is that Bakshi also produced and directed ''[[Rocket Robin Hood]]'' and the second and third seasons of the 1960s ''[[Spider-Man]]'' cartoon. The latter varied between in quality under Bakshi's tenure, although a lot of this was due to [[Executive Meddling]]. The suits continually cut both Bakshi's budget and his lead times, forcing him to continually reuse stock footage in the same way that [[Filmation]] later would. By the end, Bakshi was reduced to literally stitching together new episodes ''entirely'' out of stock footage.
The book ''Unfiltered: The Complete Ralph Bakshi'' provides much information on the life, influences and work of this [[Needs More Love|sadly underrated]] animation maverick. His final work, ''The Last Days of Coney Island'',

=== Some recurring characteristics of Ralph Bakshi's work: ===▼
* [[Adam Westing]]: He voiced an [[Ink Suit Actor|animated version of himself]] in the ''[[The Ren and Stimpy Show|Ren & Stimpy: Adult Party Cartoon]]'' episode "Fire Dogs II". It was probably a favor for John, since Ralph was his mentor and John is Ralph's best friend.
* [[All Animation Is Disney]]: Ralph didn't work for Disney, but he's often mistaken for a few things that he was believed to have part of but had no connection with whatsoever.
Line 52 ⟶ 50:
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: His films in contrast to other animated films made at the time.
* [[Deranged Animation]]: In most everything he's touched, save for ''[[The Lord of the Rings (animation)|The Lord of the Rings]]'', ''[[American Pop]]'', and ''[[Fire and Ice (animation)|Fire and Ice]]'', which were realistic, rotoscoped animation.
* [[Development Hell]]: ''Last Days of Coney island'' was this, until [[Saved From Development Hell|it was funded on Kickstarter]].
* [[Death by Cameo]]: He himself makes a cameo in each of his films where he gets killed with the exceptions of ''[[The Lord of the Rings (animation)|The Lord of the Rings]]'', ''[[Fire and Ice (animation)|Fire and Ice]]'', ''[[American Pop]]'', and ''[[Cool World]]''.
* [[Disney School of Acting and Mime]]: Ralph dislikes Disney acting, feeling that its become stale and cliche, and that animators should try and experiment with new types of acting:
