I still love every single one of those movies. The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, Pocahontas and Mulan all rank in my personal list of favorite films ever. I almost make it a point to watch them at least once a year, and I thoroughly enjoy them every single time.
Frankly, I feel that Disney did make some great films after Tarzan that simply don't get the appreciation the deserve. Lilo & Stitch, for example, is a fantastic movie. It's everything great in a Disney film, minus the musical numbers. I also enjoyed The Emperor's New Groove, Atlantis: The Lost Empire and Treasure Planet...but I don't think any of them can hold a candle of the aforementioned 90s Disney films. I really didn't like when they abandoned 2D animation though...Tangled is the first CGI Disney film I really liked on the level of the 90s films. It's also their first CGI musical. Go figure.
I also really enjoyed The Princess and the Frog and I really REALLY liked Tangled. Disney has a long history of going through strings of good films and strings of mediocrity, so hopefully this is going to be another good string of movies for them this decade.
Not that that will make the people who hate Disney because it's cool to hate Disney change their minds anyway.
Newman is fine and dandy until he starts singing. At least Collins can sing.![]()
