He's a very talented man with an animation track record second to none. But he is also a stupid bigot (in my VERY humble opinion) so I have an ambivalent attitude towards him...

Well, you can like his art, but not his person. That happens a lot in this sorry world of ours. Good artistic skills don't necessary mean good interrelational skills.

That's through.

And if you want to become an entertainer, as all animators should aspire, it is important to understand why people act like they do, even if their behavior makes you feel uncomfortable.

Knowing how to be repulsive and obnoxious is a neat trick to have if you want to portray a villain. We all have these dark emotions inside us, but it is sometimes hard to get in touch with them. Seeing someone else do it, can help.
