But by the luge run I don't mean literally lugeing; I mean a prolonged sequence that's basically first-person, above-the-head view, while the surroundings rush forward, with rapid twists and turns of orientation and often direction, generally with sudden dangerous objects jumping out and needing to be dodged. Sometimes it serves the plot, but often it's to show off how they can get stuff moving fast around the character, and it often looks like a board for the video game based on the movie.
For example, there's the vine sliding sequences of Disney's Tarzan, or the hoverboard surfing in Treasure Planet (you tell me if that's a cel animated movie with CGI assists, or a CGI movie with cel animation assists), Dash's big run in The Incredibles, or so. The swimming/hopping through the jellyfish in Finding Nemo threatens to get close to this, but there's enough cutaways to different angles and enough relevance to the plot that it doesn't fit.
