Mulan was under-rated. it should have been at least PG with that partial nude scene they had!

Oh, that's not what you meant by underrated?

I rather liked Mulan, but no one else really cares for it, I think. Hercules was also a little underrated. Those two aren't really all that popular. Good, but not that popular.

I haven't seen any of the newer ones. I like Robin Hood (just because it is, quite possibly, one of my favouritest stories of all time), Rescuers Down Under, and Sword in the Stone the most of what I have seen.

And of course being a musician I love Fantasia. Though I never saw the new one.

Since Disney has just bought Pixar, I wanna say Finding Nemo since it is now technically considered a Disney movie.... otherwise either the original Winnie the Pooh, I believe that was Disney, or Fantasia.

I do like Fantasia and Fantasia 2000. And both Robin Hood and Sword in the Stone are amazing.

Am I the only person who actually really liked Disney's Hercules?

*cowers in the corner and waits for the wrath of EL*

I adore Emperor's New Groove! "A llama! He's supposed to be dead!" "yeah... weird."

My 10 favorite animated Disney Movies, in order:

Beauty and the Beast
Robin Hood
Mulan
Aladdin
The Lion King
Great Mouse Detective
Rescuer's Down Under
Hercules
Little Mermaid
Sleeping Beauty

Now... live action is a whole other story. Did anyone else grow up watching the Vault Disney Collection movies like Swiss Family Robinson and the original Parent Trap? My all time favorite was a movie with Jodi Foster no one has ever heard of called Candleshoe.

I liked Hercules alot, just not near enough as some others.

Swiss Family Robinson was definitely a winner, but we only really got to see that when we went to our grandparents' house in Manitoba.

Parent Trap. *happy sigh* That is the stuff my childhood was made of.

I've also had a secret desire to live like the Swiss Family Robinson, in nature, making it on what I could or could not make.

Both great movies.

I wholeheartedly concur. Unfortunately, it's Dreamworks, not Disney :P
I used to hate gravity because it would not let me fly. Now I realize it is gravity that lets me stand.

My all time favorite was a movie with Jodi Foster no one has ever heard of called Candleshoe.
I've never heard of it but knowing the vast amount of movies my husband saw as a child, I asked him (his mom has the largest and most diverse movie collection I've ever seen). And he said that yes, he has seen Candleshoe many times and likes it. So you aren't alone!

I also LOVED We're Back!. (you know, the one with the dinosaurs...) But I just checked and its not disney... cant believe I still have that.

I like Rescuers Down Under. The first The Rescuers wasn't all that great, but the second one was really cool.

I LOVED The Rescuers. I had the book on tape (you know... when you here the bell, turn the page).

In college, me and my friends loved quoting the Emporer's New Groove to one another. All the friggin time! Like, when one of us would do something stupid or state the obvious, we'd go back and forth, "Now, who's in my chair?" "Oh! I know! Yzma! Yzma's in your chair!" "Very good, Krunk!"

My favorite was my friends Jennifer and Debra. One time when they were driving on the freeway, some idiot cuts in front of Jennifer.

Jen: "Dude, you threw off my cruise!"
Debra: "I'm sorry. You threw off Jennifer's cruise."

Anyways, that's not the point, i suppose.

Definitely love Robin Hood and Sleeping Beauty. Prince Phillip is the hottest Disney prince by far. Hands down.

i LOVE disney's That Darn Cat, the original with Haley Mills. sooooooooo good!
you snooze, you lose
well I have snozzed and lost
I'm pushing through
I'll disregard the cost
I hear the bells
so fascinating and
I'll slug it out
I'm sick of waiting
and I can
hear the bells are
ringing joyful and triumphant
