I was going to say Pocahontas, but there was too much extra crap thrown in that movie. For one thing they turned the Hippie-Indian crap up to 11. Yeah! All Indians have raccoons as pets. They made Pocahontas about ten years (give or take a few years) older than she really was. She was about freakin' 10! I heard that the reason why the made her older was so that she'd be more sexually appealing to older men. And then they made up this gay love story between she and John Smith. The whole thing about her saving his life was actually a ceremony that the tribe did, where a girl decides if a prisoner lives or dies-- it had nothing to do with a kind of undying love. And in reality she married the tobacco farmer John Rolfe. I was so pissed when I first saw the movie, because I had to clean the garage in order to go. I usually don't mind it when Disney injects a bunch of new age hippie crap to their movies. I love Beauty and the Beast, and they turned the whole thing from a basically misogynistic story to a feminist tale about a woman who can see through ugliness. And the monster who can love her for who she is. Mulan was better, but I could've done without Mushu. Oh how Eddie Murphy went down. _________________ Power is only pain It’s probably better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in.

Its sad that the first thing to come to mind when i read the topic was the magical world of warcraft. But anyway the lion king wins hands down. I think that was the only movie that made me cry when i was small. But a movie that isn't on the list that's pretty good is the Goofy Movie _________________ . |

I wish Disney would release a CD with a bunch of deleted songs. The one in particular I want is "Proud of Your Boy" from Aladdin, but I'm sure there are tons of other great ones. _________________ "I shall take the heart," returned the Tin Woodsman; "for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world." |

My favs are: Alice in Wonderland and Mulan. But i still love them all, i have a stash of disney VHS's hidden away somewhere, I might decide to watch them all again, it's been a while! But some i didn't really like at all: The Black Cauldron, and Tarzan immediately spring to mind. |

Tarzan was what the nobel Patricians of the Old Republic called "STUPID AS $#@!!" _________________ Power is only pain It’s probably better to have him inside the tent pissing out, than outside the tent pissing in.
