One film, released in that buffer zone between the gloom of the 80s and the boom of the 90s was Rescuers Down Under. The first animated movie to use the Computer Animated Production System, it was groundbreaking in many ways but ultimately tends to forgotten by all but the most diehard Disney fans.

Bob Newhart, Eva Gabor, John Candy, and George C. Scott start in The Rescuers Down Under.
