Favorite Disney Animated Classic
 

Because this might possibly be the ultimate film debate.

Please note this is the official Disney approved list of 48 Walt Disney Animated Classics and therefore does not include Pixar releases.

Note the clear dropoff in quality in the mid to late 1940s. Walt must've been upset about something. Possibly about the outcome of some conflict. Maybe his side didn't win.

When I was a kid I liked Alice in Wonderland, The Jungle Book, and Aladdin the most. In recent years I have come to love The Emperor's New Groove. I will go with Aladdin. Are you making a poll of 48 options?

That's not fair. All his staff got drafted to make propaganda films for the US war effort. I bet that really pissed him off.

Is the Lion King one of them? I always loved that. And Aladdin.

My top 3:

Beuaty and the beast
Aladdin
The Lion King


After those I have seen and enjoyed quite a few:

Sleeping Beauty
Cinderella
Lady and the tramp
Bambi
Dumbo
etc..


I am not a fan of the pixar films, except I did enjoy UP recently.

Classics to me are the works on pen and paper.

My all time favroite is Rescuers: Down Under.

Percival C. McLeach owns all Disney villians.

I love a lot of them, but I think my favorite would either have to be Robin Hood or the Jungle Book

Jungle Book but I forgot about LK.

lol Lara Emily


Mine's Aladdin. Lion King runs second.
That's my generation.

Although, Jungle Book probably comes in third.

I didn't like any of the ones after Lion King, and at some point stopped seeing them.

My thoughts exactly. :y:

And also, fuck all those movies post '95.

wtf, come on people.

Lion King was way better than aladdin.

Oh god what a tough choice. Love Disney movies.

Toss up between Jungle Book and Sleeping Beauty...I'll go with Jungle Book.

Honorable mentions:
Sleeping Beauty
The Black Cauldron (underrated)
Aladdin
The Lion King
Beauty and the Beast
Emperor's New Groove
Alice in Wonderland

Yeah, Lion King, easily

I also love Hercules. Not my favourite, but one of the top for me, for sure.

Out of the list, Robin Hood stood out for some reason.

Lion King for me.
Probably because it was the first movie I remember seeing at the movie theater. I also liked the story.

Lion King. Can't believe I haven't seen Jungle Book though.

Aladdin might be the better video game though :shifty: both that and Lion King were good. Lion King had this beetles that would make a huge unnecessary explosion when you defeated them, only enemy in the game to do that I think.

Aladdin gets my vote. Even the sequels were good. Such a great movie and I like the songs too.

Just kind of went with an answer that I thought I liked when I originally posted. But upon actually thinking about the reasoning behind my choice, Lion King is my favourite of these, and I think that it's mostly due to the fact that Scar is probably the best villain featured in any of these movies. I mean, the canyon scene was so damn emotionally gripping for being an animated scene. That shit was legit intense.

"Long live the king." Such an evil badass.

This is hard I think Emperors new groove was the best one they made, but Aladdian and Lion King are great too. To close to call for me.

Lion King, followed by Aladdin and The Fox and the Hound.

Lion King sucks ass.

Jungle Book just pips Aladdin for me.

Also Little Mermaid is fantastic for Sebastian alone.

You're supposed to tell us which one is your favorite, not which one sucks. Come on Dave, you're slipping.

Lion King

but I love Alice In Wonderland and The Emperors New Groove

The ones that arent about Mexicans...:shifty:

VOTE FOR ALADDIN!!

The Little Mermaid. Hell, we still still sleep on Ariel bedsheets.

Alice In Wonderland, Hercules, and Cinderella would all be close behind.

Hercules is my pick.

Beauty and the Beast is second, because....

No one hits like Gaston,
No one spits like Gaston,
etc, etc.

My top three is:

The Lion King
Aladdin
Mulan

But I voted for Lion King because I love the songs.

Did you guys do the Disney Sing Along Songs? I kept getting these from the library like every weekend. I loved the one that had "A Pirate's Life for Me" except I think I was afraid of the pirates, so it was a masochist relationship of sorts.

Land Before Time ftw

One of these things doesn't belong.

I figure you'd like Mulan for the inherent irony.

This thread actually made me go and watch The Rescuers Down Under again. Haven't watched it in so long. Actually I got like halfway and then I feel asleep. I have been meaning to watch it anyway.

So was the Rescuers Down Under the only official theater squeal than?

It was between Aladdin and The Lion King for me, but Robin Williams > Jonathon Taylor Thomas, so there ya go.
