Why does rotoscoping looks like complete garbage?
Not always. Waltz with Bashir looked great.
Good rotoscoping takes rotoscoped elements and seamlessly integrates them into a larger animated performance. Bad\cheap rotoscoping is basically tracing over an entire live-action performance. One takes talent and the other is the result of hackery

Bakshi rotoscoped when he didn't have the cash to use animators he trusted and had to use green ones. that's why it looks like ass, in his case, at least. he didn't have cash for better.
holy shit that foreshortened gandalf

Depends on whether it was used as a reference or a lazy way to justify tracing.

Correct, I never noticed the rotoscoping in Snow White, Pinocchio and Anastasia until I read that they are indeed rotoscoped. And it looked amazing.
