Line 173:
** "[[Shoot the Money|We have CGI, and dammit we're going to use it!]]" --[[The Nostalgia Chick]]
** Also, the train crash.
* ''[[The King and I]]'' animated musical, [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene|especially the dancing Buddha statues]] and the ship.
* ''[[Heavy Metal (animation)|Heavy Metal]] 2000'': The Chamber of Immortality at the end of the movie is clearly not rendered with the same 2D animation used in the rest of the film, nor is {{spoiler|[[The Mole|Odin]] when he unmasks himself and walks into the Chamber}}.
* Disney's earlier forays into mixing CG and traditional animation; ''[[Beauty and the Beast]]'' and ''[[Aladdin (Disney film)|Aladdin]]'' are two of the most obvious examples, with the ballroom scene in the former and the escape from the Cave of Wonders in the latter being particularly obvious (and jarring) examples. ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'' has a scene where Ariel runs down the stairs that is CG. It's painfully obvious, but it's also on the screen for about a minute. Interestingly, ''[[The Lion King]]'' also used CG, but because they knew what they were doing by then it WASN'T conspicuous.
** Sadly, the more recent ones are pretty noticeable too. The Hydra in ''[[Hercules (1997 film)||Hercules]]'' still looks pretty CG despite advanced cell shading simulation techniques being applied, and many of the moving objects designed to look like background elements in ''[[Tarzan (Disney film)|Tarzan]]'' are clearly 3D.
** Perfecting the blend between the two mediums was pretty much the whole point of ''[[Treasure Planet]]''.
** Ironically, aside from the obviously non-curved lines on the cement mixer, the CG vehicles in ''[[Oliver and Company]]'' look pretty convincingly hand-animated. Helped, no doubt, from the fact that most cars in [[The Eighties]] were extremely boxy.
