That's an interesting way of doing it. Kinda cheating (:P) and it's supposed to be your favorites in the order they're your favorite, I thought, but you can do it however. I find it weird that if this is to include your favorites but also the ones you think are the greatest, and you usually seem to provide reasons why your favorites are also the greatest...some of your choices puzzle me.Dr Frankenollie wrote:Here is my list, which has been slightly tweaked based on what I've gathered from the other lists (e.g. if something like my original #18 hasn't got many other votes, then I'll put it higher), and as some films are proving to be partially overrated, I've put some lower on the list than I otherwise would have. In some ways, this list is an uneven mixture of what DACs are my favourites, and what I consider to be the greatest.
Uh, thanks, you can make it the big four, too, but is that the only time you've called us that?Dr Frankenollie wrote:Where are the lists of UD's Big Three (Goliath, Lazario and Disney Duster)?
Yeah, it could be seen as cheating, but it technically isn't breaking any of the rules. My favourites and the films I consider the greatest often cross over, but they're not always the same. In the case of the DACs for example, my favourite is probably Dumbo, but I think Fantasia is the greater film; nonetheless, Dumbo is the second greatest DAC. Similarly, The Little Mermaid is a better film than Aladdin, but I find Aladdin slightly more enjoyable.Disney Duster wrote:That's an interesting way of doing it.

I can justify all of them.Yes, it's the only time I've called the three of you that; it just appears that you three are the most frequent/entertaining/notorious members here.Disney Duster wrote:Uh, thanks, you can make it the big four, too, but is that the only time you've called us that?
Disney Duster wrote:4. Tangled 2010
I thought you disliked Tangled for lacking the 'Disney Essence'?
Yeah, what the hell is that!?! Not too long ago we talked about how Tangled may have caused you to loose complete faith in Disney as a whole. You even just stated that today (or yesterday) in another thread.Dr Frankenollie wrote:Disney Duster wrote:4. Tangled 2010
) over Duster's ranking. It's always been clear he likes Tangled. He tries to "fix" it because he likes it. 
Disney Duster wrote:Dr. Frankenollie, I'm glad you kept Dumbo first then. Your puzzling choices would be The Jungle Book, The Rescuers, The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr Toad, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, The Great Mouse Detective, Alice in Wonderland, The Sword in the Stone, and The Three Caballeros OVER other films from the Disney canon. Those films aren't bad, I just mean in relation to the other films you could have picked or placed higher. It only makes sense to me in that they're your favorites.
I don't get why the choices you mention are puzzling. You say in relation to other films; what films have I neglected? Bambi is style over substance (although I still respect its animation and really like parts of it); Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King appear to be overrated on this forum, so I excluded them because I think other films deserve more votes; I haven't seen Mulan and Tarzan in full for some time so I can't accurately judge them; while I like Cinderella, I think its extreme amount of filler partially spoils it; and 101 Dalmatians is somewhat overrated.I don't know about Goliath, but when it's done well, I love heartwarming cuddly stuff. Winnie the Pooh does it well, with charming characterisation, innocent yet hilarious dialogue/gags, and a couple of surprisingly bittersweet scenes. Also, the surreal "Heffaloomps & Woozles" scene is no "Pink Elephants on Parade", but is a terrific mixture of dazzling animation and entertaining music nonetheless.Disney Duster wrote:I also don't quite get why you and Goliath have The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh because you two don't seem like to like such heartwarming cuddly stuff.
What the f--- ????!!!!Disney Duster wrote:4. Rapunzel 2010
Oh? Would I be a fan of Disney's if I didn't like "heartwarming cuddly stuff"? Most Disney films contain that in one form or another. The original Winnie the Pooh shorts (Honey Tree and Blustery Day) are just so wonderful because of the rich characterizations (especially Winnie and Rabbit) and the many memorable, delightful songs, which are among the best Disney have ever done. And even the 'Heffalumps and Weezles' sequence alone makes it deserving of a spot in the Top 20.Disney Duster wrote:I also don't quite get why you and Goliath have The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh because you two don't seem like to like such heartwarming cuddly stuff

Well Beauty and the Beast is in my top five, but The Rescuers is in my top ten, and The Lion King isn't on my listGoliath wrote:The Rescuers should be in everybody's top 10. The only thing I am disappointed in, is that vastly overrated films like Beauty and the Beast and Lion King end up in place 1-5 so often.
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
