Holy Crap! I go away for a weekend and some kind of Bizarroworld travesty occurs! Are we really stuck with these four as the finalists? :eek: Ugh. Kinda like having the Best Italian Restaurant in the World come down to Sbarro and Olive Garden.

I like them. I’d rank them all in my top ten and three in my top five.

We’re all entitled to our opinions; **ArchiveGuy** ’s just happens to be wrong. 😃

1. The Emperor’s New Groove

That’s right! New Groove all the way! (Mermaid is good, but at the end of the day I don’t like it nearly as much)

1.

Beauty and the Beast

Be fair, Beauty is up there with the best that Disney has ever done. The other three are a bit silly, but hey that’s popularity contests for you.

GO NEW GROOVE!

Can a new voter join this late in the game?

If so, Mermaid and Aladdin. Both classics.

Aladdin is funnier, better animated, and has wider appeal, so I expect that one to win it all. That or Lion King would have been my guess from the beginning, actually.

I’ve never been more tempted to create some socks just to skew the votes to my, correct btw, choices.

The Cinderella Story (HA!) is over, dear readers! The Emperor’s New Groove was knocked off by The Little Mermaid!

In fact, the princesses beat up the boys in both sides of this round. Aladdin was soundly defeated by Beauty and the Beast as well!

Final tallies for round five:

The Emperor’s New Groove 19  
The Little Mermaid 23

Beauty and the Beast 24  
Aladdin 18

It’s Ariel vs Belle for all the marbles, folks! See you in the next thread!
