If you want to get technical, Pixar movies before 2006 were only distributed by Disney (Buena Vista). Pixar was bought by Disney in 06.

Disney counts them all as Disney movies, and BV is the distributor of record for all of them

I was going to reply with the same. I had (have?) a thing for Ariel. I haven't been able to shake it for decades.

Sure but throw them both out there

Pretty sure animated Disney movie is self explanatory

Why I asked.

Anyhoo, I would say my top-5 with Pixar included would be:
Toy Story
Toy Story 2
Toy Story 3
Up
Inside Out

One could argue that Toy Story 3 is the best movie but it doesn’t work without the other two leading the way.

For straight up Disney it would be:
Lion King
Aladdin
Beauty and the Beast
Little Mermaid
Jungle Book

first movie i saw at the cinema. i think there are some great modern Disney movies - Toy Story, Finding Nemo, Lion King for example, which have better stories but there is something special about those from the pre-VCR era that weren't accessible on demand. Getting the chance to see even a short clip from them when Disney Time was on TV was special.

This is really difficult to narrow down as, given my age, I grew up with the classics, but recognize that there have been some outstanding movies made in the last 20 years. My list of top 5 favorites though are:

Winnie the Pooh
Jungle Book
Lady and the Tramp
Toy Story
Finding Nemo

The Little Mermaid is nice but the unreleased sequel is more "Shameless" than fairy tale.


The romance dies and Ariel turns to food.



Pretty soon she gets big, stops talking to the prince and starts a Facetime relationship with some foreign guy who says he likes her but really just wants a Green-card.

Remember - It's important to be comfortable in your own skin... because it turns out society frowns on wearing other people's

Because it doesn’t make a lot of sense to limit it to Disney.

Disney does not have a monopoly on great animated movies.

It’s like starting a thread on your favourite Universal Studios motion pictures.

But your house your rules. I withdraw HTTYD.

Who pissed in your cornflakes?

You own this thread so at this time you really should be tallying everything up to tell us what the LR thinks is the best.

I'll see your Ariel and raise you a Jessica

No one. I assumed it was your intent to discuss animated films in general but then you confirmed you meant Disney. I found it unusual why the focus was Disney (excluding the likes of Dreamworks),

I’m still curious

It was in the title of the post. If you don't limit it to Disney, then do you limit to American? If not then you are dealing with Studio Ghibli.

I feel I'm one of the more pedantic people on here, if I had wanted animated films I would have said so.

Discussion at work how people my age without kids like movies from when we were kids and older (because they've never seen the new ones) whereas people with kids like some of the new stuff too because they saw them with their kids.

Deducting 10 points since you sucked the fun out of this.

just watched Coco the other day - its actually really good

And if you limit it to feature films, you miss all those Warner Bros & Hanna-Barbera cartoons

My all-time favorite cartoon - any length, any studio - might be The Rabbit of Seville or What's Opera, Doc?

Aladdin. It amazed me as a child, and I always felt a connection with Jasmine. The songs are wonderful, Aladdin himself is an objectively good person, and who can forget Robin William’s Genie?
But I also love Atlantis, Treasure Planet, Hercules, A Bugs Life, A Goofy Movie, Big Hero 6, The Great Mouse Detective, The Sword in the Stone, and Rescuers Down Under.

Mine is Finding Nemo, husbands is Monsters Inc.

Kids change all the time. Toy Story (#1), Incredibles, Cars, All Dogs Go To Heaven, Peter Pan, Frozen, Zootopia, and then all the non Disney... LEGO Movie 2 is the new favorite.

Frozen. Moana. The Fantasias (my daughter's pretty obsessed with the Sprite from 2000's "Firebird" and the demon from 1940's "Night on Bald Mountain").
