Coffin Nail Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 I'm just watching the 100 Best Family Movies. Part of me loathes everything that the Disney Corporation stands for, but politics aside I can't deny they've made some incredible films. Top three Disney films?? Aladdin Beauty and the Beast Jungle Book Quote
Nollaig Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Aladdin, Beauty & The Beast and The Lion King for me. I also love The Fox & The Hound though. Quote
CornflowerBlue Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin for me. I know they're supposed to be awful, but a lot of the hatred for them makes me roll my eyes. This implication that anyone brought up with Disney will have their brains liquidised and be cultural black holes is crazy. Quote
Coffin Nail Posted May 31, 2010 Author Posted May 31, 2010 Aladdin, Beauty & The Beast and The Lion King for me. I also love The Fox & The Hound though. Lion King on the subs bench. Quote
chrysalis_stage Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) Both the original Fantasia and Fantasia 2000 are fantastic! I personally enjoy: Pocahontas (some people dislike it saying it is not historically correct but in its own right I adore it, Meeko and the songs sway it for me) Beauty and the Beast (I was obsessed with this film as a child) Brother bear (recent-ish disney which I loved) But there are many others that are great too which I watched constantly as a kid and am still fond of now CornflowerBlue:I know they're supposed to be awful, but a lot of the hatred for them makes me roll my eyes. This implication that anyone brought up with Disney will have their brains liquidised and be cultural black holes is crazy. I know, it doesn't bother and hasn't affected me and I had a very disney-fied upbringing and have been to disneyland Paris three times. I see myself as very openminded and have my head screwed on in the real world. The films are entertaining, make children and adults think about their actions in many ways.....and at the end of the day nothing and no-one is perfect, the films shouldn't be to blame for children not being brought up right.

lauraloves Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 The Lion King The Jungle Book Aristocats but there are so many to choose from! Quote
Skírnir Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) When I was younger, I used to watch the Lion King numerous times every single day for many years, eventually I wore up THREE tapes of the film - and now I have no copy of it. Therefore, that one definitely comes first. Then I'd have to choose between 101 Dalmatians, the Little Mermaid, Hercules, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Tarzan and Lady and the Tramp. No idea what to choose, I guess it'd be The Hunchback and Hercules. I always really disliked Pinocchio, Dumbo and Aladdin though. I also never really came to like the films with girls as a lead (besides the Little Mermaid and Pocahontas, perhaps because they were different) but I really had no patience for the princess movies.

Nightwish Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Beauty and the Beast, The Little Mermaid and The Lion King are my favourites . Quote
Weave Posted May 31, 2010 Posted May 31, 2010 Beauty and the Beast (I love the ballroom scene), The Little Mermaid and The Aristocats, one of my cats was named 'O'Malley' because of The Aristocats Quote
Book Fiend Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 The Lion King, The Little Mermaid and Beauty And The Beast. I love love love all these films!! I always found pinocchio slightly disturbing, especially when they all turn into donkeys. Thats quite scary for a child! (not sure if the spoiler is really necessary, but you never know, maybe someone hasn't seen it!) And I can't watch Dumbo, it's just too upsetting! Quote
Echo Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 I have to pick just three? Okay, then: Aladdin The Lady and the Tramp Dumbo But The Lion King, Cinderella, and The Little Mermaid rank pretty high for me, too. Quote
Nicola Booth Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 I'm just watching the 100 Best Family Movies. Part of me loathes everything that the Disney Corporation stands for, but politics aside I can't deny they've made some incredible films. Top three Disney films?? Aladdin Beauty and the Beast Jungle Book What was No. 1? I watched a bit of the second half. Quote
Stephanie2008 Posted June 1, 2010 Posted June 1, 2010 There's so many to choose from but I would say 1. Lion King, 2. The Artistocats, 3. Beauty and the Beast. With Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Aladdin following close behind! Quote
Cookie Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 For me it would be 1. Beauty and the Beast 2. Aristicats 3. Sleeping Beauty. But then there's Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, The Fox and the Hound and don't forget Cool Runnings and Hocus Pocus! Quote
Kreader Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 For me it would be The Lion King, and The little Mermaid ( I recall all of us adults in the family sending my 3 year old neice to bed that christmas we got this film for her. We all watched the movie twice that night. Before the holidays were over the video tape actual snapped we had to use cellotape to repair it). I didn't see Bambi until I was an adult and I was shocked at what happened to Bambi's mother. I actually gasped. Yes me, the one who finally got to see The Exorcist when I was 19 and said that's all! Where's the scarey bit, it was just getting interesting then it ends! Quote
madcow Posted June 2, 2010 Posted June 2, 2010 I've tried and tried but......nope I can't just pick three!!!!! I love them all Quote
rachel2210 Posted June 10, 2010 Posted June 10, 2010 Jungle Book Aladdin Beauty and the Beast - I still know this one word for word! Quote
