What is your favorite film from The Disney Renaissance and why?

 

For those who don't know what the Disney Renaissance is, to quote the Disney Wiki, "The Disney Renaissance refers to an era beginning roughly in the late 1980s and ending around 2000 during which Walt Disney Animation Studios returned to making successful animated films mostly based on well-known stories, restoring public and critical interest in Disney."

 

These films include,

 

The Little Mermaid

The Rescuers Down Under

Beauty and the Beast

Aladdin

The Lion King

Pocahontas

The Hunchback of Notre Dame

Hercules

Mulan

Tarzan

 

My personal favorite from the bunch boils down to Beauty and the Beast. Frozen ain't got nothing on that one! It's the perfect Disney fairy tale that follows its source material more than Frozen did. The romance is perfect, the songs are perfect, the animation is Disney and therefore great, and the characters are great.

 

Now, what about you guys?

 

Just curious...

Really tough choice. The Renaissance era definitely had some of the best Disney films... I really want to say all of them for various different reasons but I'll play fair and pick Aladdin.

 

 

....and Mulan.... and Hercules...... and Hunchback.... and---- no I'll stop.

The avrgvers the ending

Tarzan, Alladin, The Little Mermaid and Toy Story. They are very hard to choose.

Toy Story and Tarzan are pretty close. I'll go for Tarzan.

 

I think it's obvious from this post which one I like the most

When I was little, it was probably a tie between The Little Mermaid and Lion King. But now that I'm older, and have developed a better understanding of turmoil and sarcasm, so I would probably say  Hercules and Hunchback of Notre Dame. Hades always says something that cracks  me up, and the emotional distress that Frollo feels due to his lusts for Esmeralda, really sucks me in. Oh, and Tarzan was pretty good. (Phil Collins FTW!)
