What about the other Disney-movies?


It's impossible to include all Disney movies in my top-44, because the full-length features
would need their own chart. Many other Disney movies - especially The Aristocats* (1970),
Peter Pan* (1953), Cinderella* (1950), Sleeping Beauty* (1959), Robin Hood* (1973),
The Rescuers* (1977) and The Rescuers Down Under* (1991) - are thumbs-up worthy.

All Pixar movies are masterpieces and can be considered "safe blind buys".

I haven't seen Hercules (1997), Mulan (1998) or Tarzan (1999).

Rather disappointing - but, don't get me wrong, they have their qualities -
Pocahontas (1995), Dinosaur (2000) and all lame straight-to-video sequels.
Best example : The Return Of Jafar ; good story, sloppy execution.
