The first time I re-watched this film as an adult my mind was absolutely blown by the flight over the flower field in the opening sequence [1]. It looked too clean to be hand-drawn but I had some trouble believing that a studio like Disney was using computer animation as early as 1990. I did some research and discovered that it was the first fully CAPS-animated film.

For instance by 98/99 Futurama was doing this using SGI systems (I think?). Still hand drawn cels but entirely digitally coloured and composited.
