Nausea (animation techniques)

I used to really like the animation Luxo Jr, but after being shown it around 400 times in the space of a week it now makes me feel rather sick thinking about it… Yes it’s very clever and I do agree that it makes inanimate objects (the lamps in this case) have their own personalities, but after being bombarded with this animation over and over again I now feel as if I have been experimented on Clockwork Orange style.

i think this is the main reason why I want to avoid animating inanimate objects, I feel ill thinking about it, which I associate with the trauma of seeing two lamps bouncing around over and over again with… 

I want to do an animation as far from luxo jr as possible.
