Actually, the one movie that I think was best is one that doesn't often get counted among the greats of Disney. But i still think it's the coolest movie the company ever made. The Black Cauldron. Granted, the movie is nowhere near as good as the books, but it's still a really cool movie.

Ahhh! I love the Black Cauldron! I <3 <3 <3 <3 Gorgie! Lol! *squeels*
Anyways... I voted PoC. Orlando Bloom and Johnny Depp in a movie, together, is stunning as it is. Add in an amazing plotline and you get the best of the best. ^_^

Out of those, Beauty and the Beast. But my real top favorite is the Hunchback of Notre Dame. I have a passion for stories of people learning to see what people really are like on the inside, not the outside. Like The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Beauty and the Beast, The Phantom of the Opera, etc. Also I have a passion for those movies beacuse they all are set in Paris and I love that city.

Ah... Among all of those, PotC is my favourite. The movie is absolutely amazing! Although Beauty and the Beast runs a close second. ^^

I don't care for Beauty and the Beast, or Cinderella, or any other Disney movies based on fairy tales. Disney completely raped the Brothers Grimm's stories.

Hmmmm....in the actual story the Little Mermaid was based on, didn't the Ariel get dumped by the Prince and kill herself? Of course, Disney can never have a non-happy ending, now can it? Unless, of course, it's kinda a "to be continued" situation. ^_^
I myself loved Pirates Of The Carribean, although I definately thought the first was so very much better than the second.
This thread also made me laugh when I first read it because in the background I've actually got a playlist of Disney songs going. W00t for me and my Disney music!

well, she didn't just kill herself, in the book joined these "sisters -- of wind -- something-or-another", so she could watch after her prince forever.
or at least that is what my friend said. she read the book not me. ^_-

I have several massive books of the "real" fairy tales. Yes, the Little Mermaid killed herself on the rocks, or something... I can't really remember. If anyone wants, I probably could go dig it up wherever it is, lol. ^_^

The story is that the Mermaid rescued the Prince, but left before he woke. He woke in the arms of a random girl. The Mermaid then traded her voice for legs that would feel like she were walking on knives with every step. If she didn't get the prince to fall in love with her and he married another, her heart would break and she would die. (Mermaids had no soul.) While she was on shore as a human, the prince married the girl in whose arms he had awoken. The Mermaid's sisters traded their hair for a knife that the mermaid had to kill the prince with and then splash the blood on her feet so she could become a mermaid again. She couldn't do it, though, so she died. But she joined the daughters of the air so that she could do good deeds for three hundred years and gain a soul.

That's the Hans Christian Andersen version in a nutshell. A very compressed nutshell.
