*sigh* There really isn't anything other than a lot of these art people are snobs. It's a new, foreign thing to them. I know a few people who hated anime/manga until they watched/read it and went "Hey, this isn't so bad!"
It's probably some cultural thing. I wouldn't be surprised if it were reversed over there since I know a few Japanese who hate Disney/Pixar and think Toei/Ghibli are gods.
I'd talk more about the art itself, but it would just turn into compare Western cartoons/games to East's anime/games in what they're show-and-telling the audience and how that effects the aesthetics.
