Reply to comment by pfranz in TIL that "Lilo & Stitch" (2002) used exclusively watercolor backgrounds, since Disney, after some failures, was investing in other projects. This was later called a "hand drawn miracle". by starring2
Home on the Range was the last hand-drawn film Disney released before the switch to CG, but Brother Bear (produced at the Florida studio) was finished later. (Disney flipped the release dates on those two for various reasons.) So technically, the Florida studio was still doing hand-drawn animation after the California studio had moved on. It's a silly distinction really, but a lot of the coverage of the Florida studio closing down focused on how they were the last holdout for 2D feature animation in America.
