Yeah, I think so too. There were a few misses though. For example "Final Fantasy: The spirits Within". I personally like it. The story was a bit too much for audiences, but the animation and effects were jaw dropping. Then there was "Final Fantasy Advent Children", it was well done but again the story did not relate to audiences here in the US. It was a good move on square enix to make it straight to DVD.

I think that the industry is starting to realize that animation is not just for kids anymore and that there is a broader audience. Kinda like the gaming industry.
