Ooo I’m first? Neat! Only have 11 of them because, I’m honestly not THAT much of a Disney guy, especially older Disney. ETA: Also, no Aladdin? Really? Count me up for that vote too ---

I picked the three my kids watched the most, _Lion King_, _Fox and the Hound_, and _Little Mermaid_. ---

Fantasia I liked a lot as a kid. I’m not sure I’ve even watched the others, I was never really into Disney. I was more a Looney Toons kid. ---

I’m not sure how meaningful my choices are, since they’re heavily influenced by which ones I have and haven’t seen, and further influenced by my age at which I saw them. But I voted anyway. And I agree that _Aladdin_ would totally have been on my list. ---

Wreck-it Ralph is the only one on that list i both remember seeing, and really liked. Though I did click the black cauldron because I liked the books, and I’m sure i saw the movie, but I don’t really remember it. Also, I would have clicked Aladdin if it was there. ---

I’ve seen at least 35 of those (and possibly more, some I can’t remember clearly if I have or not.) I like at least half that total, but “particularly fond” is an exclusive category, so I picked only The _Little Mermaid_, _Bolt_, and _Tangled_. ---

I voted for Beauty and the Beast, Hercules, Hunchback, Mulan, and the Lion King (and would’ve added Aladdin if it was there). There are certainly other ones that are good but those are my favs. ---

I notice all my choices had Phil Harris in a key role. Hmmmm. ---

I don’t like too many of the early ones. I like almost everything from the renaissance on\*, _Little Mermaid_ to now, aside from the dip of _Brother Bear_ to _Chicken Little_ and am no fan of _Hercules_ either. \*I actually also like _Rescuers Down Under_, which was slightly earlier ---

I am very surprised that \*\*Bambi \*\*has just 2 votes and \*\*Pocahontas \*\*has zero. But I am pleased that two of my favorites - **Jungle Book** and **Robin Hood** - are doing well. mmm ETA: And for the record, I would not have voted for Aladdin (too much Robin Williams for me), but I wish I hadn’t messed up its inclusion. ---

Just voted for two: Moana and Lilo and Stitch. Neither one turned a fairy tale or classic lit into baby food, neither one relied on a prince charming saving a helpless waif, both were hilarious, and the setting was pure eye candy. Lilo and Stitch is far and away my favorite. ---

I like a lot more of them than I marked, but you asked which I was _particularly_ fond of. And I agree that the (unfairly) put down **Fantasia 2000** ought to be on it, along with **The Incredibles**. I had to include **Sleeping Beauty** , the first Disney movie I saw, and **The Jungle Book** , the last to get Walt’s approval, as well as **Tarzan** , because it was the first movie that MilliCal saw (and loved). I don’t include **Pinocchio** or **Dumbo** , even though they’re classic Disney, because I don’t honestly love them. **Fantasia** is probably my overall favorite. ---

There are many that I enjoy but I voted for my most favorite hands down - Bambi. Just hearing the dialogue will bring tears to my eyes - and not just because Bambi’s mother is killed. The voices of Flower and Thumper and their conversations are so sweet. My mom had a set of 78RPM records that was the Disney story of Bambi narrated by Shirley Temple. I think the voices and soundtrack were from the movie. I remember listening to that all the time when I was a kid.
