1. The Emperor’s New Groove 2. The Little Mermaid 3. Beauty and the Beast 4. Aladdin Dang. This is heavily skewed to the modern. (I wouldn’t have suspected that of myself.) ---

[QUOTE=cactus waltz] I haven’t followed this from the start, but I’m surprised that there are so many of the 90’s Disney movies in the final eight. I know that they were kind of on a roll back then, but still. I assumed that movies like Dumbo, the Jungle Book, Alice in Wonderland and Robin Hood would be serious contenders for the final spot. [/QUOTE] Many early or obscure movies suffered early on from people voting for what they had seen over what they had not. The four you mention all have flaws, minor as they may be on their own, making them pale in comparison to the big three. The Menken/Ashman movies are simply on another level. _Groove_ is a different thing. Not only does it have irrational love from people of the SDMB ilk (myself included) it was aided by matchups against easy competition and a second-round bye. ---

101 Dalmatians - Cute puppies. The Little Mermaid - Ariel is HAWT! Beauty and the Beast - My favorite Disney movie. Aladdin - Robin Williams pushed it over the edge. ---
