What are your top 5 Disney Animated Classics?
Just to qualify, I'm not talking Pixar, and I'm not talking Disney sequels or live action here. I'm talking about the Animated Classics which were made by Walt Disney Feature Animation.
By the way, I didn't put this in polls because there are too many options at the moment, once it's brought down a bit to more of a consensus on which are the best, it can run in polls.
We're basically looking at:-
Snow White
Pinocchio
Fantasia
Dumbo
Bambi
Saludos Amigos
The Three Caballeros
Make Mine Music
Melody Time
Fun and Fancy Free
The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad
Cinderella
Alice in Wonderland
Peter Pan
Lady and the Tramp
Sleeping Beauty
101 Dalmatians
The Sword in the Stone
The Jungle Book
Robin Hood
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
The Rescuers
The Fox and the Hound
The Black Cauldron
The Great Mouse Detective
Oliver and Company
The Little Mermaid
The Rescuers Down Under
Beauty and the Beast
Aladdin
The Lion King
Pocahontas
The Hunchback of Notré Dame
Hercules
Mulan
Tarzan
Fantasia 2000
The Emperor's New Groove
Atlantis
Treasure Planet
Lilo and Stitch
Brother Bear
Home on the Range
Chicken Little
Meet the Robinson's
I think that's all the eligible movies. Once we've got a decent number of responses, I'll look at compiling the votes. Please order your choices, favourite first.
For me, it's:-
1. Beauty and the Beast
2. The Little Mermaid
3. The Lion King
4. Aladdin
5. Sleeping Beauty
Well, because of the fact I've grown up with them, my list is pretty similar to yours ;) My favourites are:
1. The Lion King
2. Aladdin
3. Beauty and the Beast
4. Pocahontas
5. The Little Mermaid
...6. Bambi
7. Lilo & Stitch
8. Brother Bear
9. Tarzan
10. Lady and the Tramp.... :lol:
Yes, I really like Pocahontas, and I think it's underrated. It's very arty, and I think it shares more than a passing resemblance to Sleeping Beauty, with it's angular characters and straight lines. But I think SB did it first and is a gorgeous film, almost poetic, which I've come to appreciate more as I've got older. Pocahontas is a grand musical though with some awesome showstopping tunes.
6. Pocahontas
7. Tarzan
8. Hunchback
9. The Jungle Book
10. Cinderella (come to appreciate this much more in more recent years)
1. B & B ( Just amazing )
2. The Lion King ( Music and story nearly perfect )
3. Snow White ( The start )
4. Tarzan ( Best music for an animation movie ever! )
5. Bambi ( As a little boy i watched this one over and over again )
Mine are:
1. Snow White
2. Peter Pan
3. Ariel the little Mermaid
4. Pocahontas
5. Beauty and the Beast
Then it goes on with:
6. Aladdin
7. Lilo & Stitch
8. Alice in Wonderland
9. The Hunchback of Notre Dame
10. Pinocchio
Okay, starting to tally the votes.
Here's how I'm working this.
1 = 5 pts, 2 = 4 pts, 3 = 3pts etc. - then totalling points from each person across all the films.
So, the countdown at the moment is:-
9. Sleeping Beauty (1 vote)
8. Tarzan (2 votes)
6. Joint:-
Peter Pan (4 votes)
Pocahontas (4 votes)
5. Aladdin (6 votes)
3. Joint:-
Snow White (8 votes)
The Little Mermaid (8 votes)
2. The Lion King (12 votes)
and the winner so far:-
1. Beauty and the Beast (14 votes) :belle:
actually I prefer the pixar movies...I know,that most of you will not understand.But of course I also like the classic ones.
Here is my top 5:
1. Tarzan
2.Lion King
3.Peter Pan
4.The jungle book
5.Pocahontas
Beauty and the Beast needs some more votes! You've just knocked it off the top spot! Grrrrrr!
:cry:
I am so sorry, but I do not like the princess-movies at all...
Wow, seeing that list makes me realise how many Disney movies I haven't seen :?
Anyway, my top 5:
1. Beauty and the Beast
2. Lion King
3. Snow White
4. Jungle Book
5. Tarzan
10. Sleeping Beauty (1 point)
8. Joint:-
The Jungle Book (5 points)
Pocahontas (5 points)
7. Aladdin (6 points)
6. Tarzan (5 points)
5. Peter Pan (7 points)
4. The Little Mermaid (8 points)
3. Snow White (11 points)
2. Beauty and the Beast (19 points)
1. The Lion King (20 points)
Very close for first place between Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King. This doesn't surprise me, and I think it's always going to be between these two films. I know there are a few Beauty supporters out there, so get your votes in. :)
I think this could go either way between these two at any given time to be honest. Surprised to see Pocahontas making it in there. I'm also surprised to see Snow White doing so highly, yet no appearance for Cinderella. Also surprised at the lack of support for 101 Dalmatians, Fantasia, Pinocchio, Lady and the Tramp and Bambi. Makes you question the selection of Platinum Edition titles a bit.
Still, there's a lot more people to vote yet. I thought The Little Mermaid might be doing a bit better, with the DVD released last year, but I'm not particularly surprised to see Peter Pan doing well on the back of the recent platinum edition.
im finding it really difficult to choose but i think thats its gonna have to be
1. lion king
2. sleeping beauty.
3. fantasia
4. aladdin
5. beauty and the beast
i watched fantasia earlier and i had forgotten how fantastic it is, ive not watched it in years so i put it on for my little boy earlier, the only bit he was intrested in was the mickey sequince! i love the nutcracker suite and the grecian mythology parts though
Really don't see how you can rate The Lion King up at 1 and Beauty and the Beast at 5. :roll:
We're talking the only animated movie that's ever been nominated for a best picture oscar.
I think The Lion King only does so well because of the Broadway show, it's inclusion at DLRP and it's buoyed because of the media hype and box office success. It probably wins out amongst the younger members too because of it's cutesy animals and more anarchic attributes.
Never really rated Fantasia that highly, it's far too artsy for it's own good, and parts of it are extremely tedious. I much prefer Fantasia 2000 actually, I love the Steadfast Tin Soldier, the Donald Duck segment and the Firebird Suite.
Still, there's a massive gap between Beauty and the Beast and the third place which is currently Snow White. I still think The Lion King and Beauty are neck and neck for first place.
I'll do a Pixar one later but I'll tell you my top 10 classics.
1. The Lion King
2. Lilo and Stitch
3. Meet the Robinsons
4. Dumbo
5. The Great Mouse Detective
6. The Fox and the Hound
7. Chicken Little
8. Peter Pan
9. Bambi
10. Alice in Wonderland
Very, very, very bizarre choices! :?
I'm relying on Ailsa, Kurgly and Atlantica to come in here quickly and vote sensibly.
:)

each to their own i guess, im sorry your obviously not to happy about it but thats just my opinion and i have no doubt that beauty and the beast will win this anyway
i just love the lion king, its always been my fave disney film and i dont think its just because of the stage show ect that its so popular if it wasnt extremly popular in the first place there wouldnt be a show. maybe the fact that its so visualy stunning and has an original storyline ect is why its very popular i love the music in it and i think scar is absolutly fantastic. really its got a pretty dark storyline to it. its the way they have how the animals move down to a tee aswell is something else that makes it so amazing to me. i wish i had seen the musical but have never had chance so far. the ledgend of the lion king show will just have to do for now - not that i mind!! :D
i do love beauty and the beast but its just not my number 1, the fact that its been the only animated movie nominated for best piccy dosent have anything to do with it for me. i just perfer the storylines and music to the other films i have picked.
i have never seen fantasia 2000, seen bits of it on trailors on disney dvds but never the whole thing, it looks amazing though.
it was difficult for me to choose between aladdin and beauty and the beast but i picked aladdin because genie is one of my fave characters because hes just so so funny and hes voiced my robin williams who i think is such a great actor
Fair enough, don't take my comments the wrong way - and I've got way too much time on my hands at the moment following the forum after the accident on Tuesday.
:)
But I'm always going to champion Beauty and the Beast because I love it so much and it's what reintroduced me to Disney years ago.

The current top 10 are:-

2. Beauty and the Beast
3. The Little Mermaid
4. Snow White
5. Peter Pan
6. Aladdin
7. Pocahontas
8. Tarzan
9. Hunchback of Notré Dame
10. The Jungle Book
I'm a bit surprised actually to see Pocahontas, Tarzan and Hunchback making it in there, although I love all three, I thought the likes of Cinderella, Pinocchio and Bambi would have ranked higher. Bambi hasn't even got any points yet.
Very little in it between the top 3, and I think those could easily move around yet. It's definitely going to be either BATB or TLK though.
Quite a gap between Little Mermaid and Snow White though.
:) Here's mine.
1. Alice in Wonderland
2. Fantasia
3. Dumbo
4. The Lion King
5. Sleeping Beauty
:P And because other people seem to be doing it;
6. Beauty and the Beast
7. The Sword in the Stone
8. Basil the Great Mouse Detective
9. Bambi
10. Brother Bear
:( It's hard to put them in order.
I'm really unsure about this so I'll probably edit this or update if I change my mind which is very likely.
1. Aladdin
2. Meet the Robinsons
3. Beauty and the beast
4. Peter Pan
5. The Lion King
Arghhh, I hate this. But here it goes. I am unstatisfied with the order, I'd prefer not to sort them in particular, but heck, I tried! :)
1. Aladdin - Robin Williams as the man in blue, my favorite.
2. Beauty and the Beast - Best story.
3. Hunchback of the Notre Dame - I used to be in love with Esmeralda, plus the medieval time setting.
4. Robin Hood - I have a weakspot for medieval and Robin Hood stories are very interesting.
5. Mulan - Awesome, plain awesome. I used to love the videopolis show.
6. The Lion King - Amazing animation, Timon and Pumbee are perhaps the best comical relief ever.
7. Tarzan - Awesome score, Phil just rox!
8. The Black Cauldron - Medieval quirk again. Nice and dark!
9. Jungle Book - I'm the jungle VIP!
10. The Sword in the Stone - Medieval quirk strikes again! I love Merlin stories.
1. Beauty and The Beast
2. The Little Mermaid
3. The Lion King
4. Pocahontas
5. Dumbo
6. Aladdin
7. Sleeping Beauty
8. Mulan
9. Cinderella
10. Snow White
took me ages to figure that out :D
x x x
Can't possibly put them in order but it would be
Hunchback of Notre Dame
Beauty and the Beast
Little Mermaid
Aladdin
Brother bear
Peter pan
The lion King
Mulan
Snow white
The Tigger Movie.
These are all the films that make me laugh and cry :stitch_bounce:
Beauty and the Beast are in joint first place. The Little Mermaid trailing behind 13 points in third place.
I could cheat and take Moglets picks in the order they're listed, which would put Beauty and the Beast in pole position. :)
