Oh, definitely genius. There's just a certain side to his style that makes me cringe. Not all, but there's a definitely a whole class of Chuck Jones cartoons that bug me. The story content I usually like, but there's something about the animation style and sound design that hits me wrong. His Cat in the Hat and Phantom Tollbooth are kinda prime examples.
