The studios believe that the target market (12 and under) see traditional (read: drawn) animation as dead and "old". They think these movies will be ignored at the box office because they won't appeal to a new generation. What they don't get, however is that recently released traditionally animated movies (Pooh's Heffalump Movie, Brother Bear, The Jungle Book 2, Atlantis: The Lost Empire) didn't do well at the box office because of how they were done, but simply because they really wern't that good. Similarly, Shrek and Toy Story didn't do so well at the box office because they were done in CG. They did well because they were well written movies with likeable characters and a good cast.
Releasing rapid-fire and sub-par children's movies in an attempt to make a buck is hardly something new, and most definately not something exclusive to CGI movies. It's always been just as bad, except now it's done with a Mac and not a pencil.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
GI Joe is the codename for America's highly trained special mission force. Its purpose: to defend human freedom against COBRA. A ruthless terrorist organization determined to rule the world.
