Fun fact: The first CG cartoon on TV is the The Incredible Crash Dummies. It aired on Fox Kids in May 1, 1993.
It's also silly. Very silly indeed.

The CGI in the ballroom scene of Beauty and the Beast still looks good. Has a lil' bit of 90s CG in some areas. But for the most part, it still looks fine.
Here's two images and one video on how it's made, as well as a comment by Pikapetey Animations on said video, explaining how they animated the 2D portion.

I remember watching this as a kid and loving it. I had the toys and stuff too. I'm surprised I didn't grow up to be a recall coordinator like Ed Norton in Fight Club.

The first few years of Roblox back in the mid to late 2000s had a very similar aesthetic.
It looked absolutely glorious, especially with those vibrant colors and the shading.

It's weird that the 2000s looked way different.

Princess Mononoke is the other great example of CG used in a 2d movie that still looks fantastic today. Cg has garnered a bad rep but thats only because its associated with rushed hack jobs done to save time and money, its always looked great under the right hands.

It's an uphill battle. If good 3d is doing its job then it looks 2d and you don't notice it and won't realize it's an example of good 3d unless you're told.
Bad 3d jumps out as 3d immediately, so you remember every bad instance of 3d, but rarely any of the good ones.

I sometimes feel like the only person in the world who actually played this:
Simple cyberpunk stuff, but it's still so weirdly imaginative.

You're not actually. Acclaim's racing games were kino stuff.

I came here to post the LGR video and while catching up on the thread I saw B&B mentioned and was going to post how much slicker Princess Mononoke was. Damn!
The Beauty and the Beast CGI actually looks kind of shitty in my opinion. The floor looks good though.

Disney got it down way better on Tarzan and Treasure Planet
This particular scene in Tarzan still holds up very well.

The floor reflection was also hand-drawn, so that's why.

Sorry, I did not mean the reflections of the characters on the floor, I meant the actual floor.
Regardless it looks amazing, even for something in 1991, it holds up strongly today.

800,000 machine hours, 114,240 frames and 1,561 shots of animation, each taking 45 minutes to 30 hours to render in 1536 × 922 pixels, and a lot of computers. Fucking worth it.
