What was the first Disney movie which set you off on your love of Disney?

For me, I imagine it must have been either The Aristocats or Robin Hood.

I have vague memories of seeing The Aristocats, Robin Hood, Peter Pan and Winnie The Pooh in the cinema in the 70's.

More recently, in about 1993, it was Beauty and the Beast which got me hooked on Disney as an adult. Someone I was working with at the time lent me a copy of the film on video, and it got me hooked on Disney movies and animation in general. I'd kind of 'grown out of' animation by this time (I'd have been 23) but BATB opened my eyes and made me realise what an incredible artform it was, and how it wasn't just for kids.

And I fell in love with Belle.

The first one I ever saw, was "The Recuers" but I was 3 back then and so I can´t remember seeing it. But the first ones I remember were "Dumbo" and "Robin Hood"

I remember going to the Cinema to see Snow White and being terrified of the witch and the poison apple!  Beware of rosy red apples !! :maleficent_bounce:

I'm not sure whether it was THE LITTLE MERMAID or THE RESCUERS DOWN UNDER, but it was surely one of those

So many Disney films that i watched when i was little, i used to have a Disney video on every night before i went to bed. I honestly can't remember which film was the first one i ever watched, probebly Snow White, or Dumbo, or The Rescuers.  :lol:

I have a vague memory (actually my first real memory) of being taken to see Snow White at the cinema when it was re-released in the early 1990s.

While I saw most of the Disney canon during my childhood, Aristocats and Pocahontas were the only ones that really left an impression on me.  I liked them all ok, but I was never really a "Disney Child".

When I was 16, however, everything changed.  I was on study leave from school to revise for my GCSEs and I was hit by a sudden wave of nostalgia, and over the next few days I rewatched my entire Disney collection.  It was only then that I realised just how good these films really are, especially (in my opinion anyway) the ones made while Walt was still alive.  Pinocchio is now my favourite film of all time (as you can probably tell by my username!) and not a day goes by where I don't consider myself lucky to have Disney magic in my life.

I actually can't remember the first Disney film I saw.. I am trying to pick my brains here people! This being quite a chore because there aren't many there to pick!   I think it might have been the rescuers quite possibly...
