Love that!

A similar idea I've seen discussed is that some activities are telic (means toward some other end, goal-directed) and others are atelic (non-goal directed, valuable for their own sake). And you want to make sure telic activities and ways of thinking don't crowd out atelic ones.

Animation not art? Heresy! The habit that Disney has of turning their animation films into live action is to me grubbing after money and I am proud to say that I have not seen any of these adaptations. Why would I want to.
