It's more than that, it also lets them release something 'new' with old characters and refresh the sales on their merchandise and extend their copyrights. It's part of a whole-market strategy.
They aren't really training newbies with something safe. Disney hasn't put an animated film in theaters since Lilo and Stitch, and really I don't think that should count. What was it before that, Aladdin? They don't do feature animation anymore.
