All of Disney's feature films e.g. Snow White, Beauty and the Beast etc are
done at 24fps. I know I've grabbed sequences of them for assorted things.
Most of Disney's mouse/duck/goofy bits are done at 24fps, only some of the very
early stuff was done as 12fps, plus some of the real cheapies.

Basically I aggree with all you say, for the PROFESSIONAL, 25fps is minimum for
PAL, preferably 50fields. I would (and have!) only use 12(.5)fps, for something
I wanted the jerky motion for effect, generally only for conventional
animation.

A general remark, sure you can do animation on an Animga, or a C64, or a BBC,
but those of us that have to make enough money to eat from it would use
something faster.  As far as software goes for the Amiga, I've never seen
*anything* on an Amiga that can come close to either TOPAS or 3D Studio.
