I hate puting up top 10 because I do not know how to number my favorites, but I will try since I want to get my favorites up on the list.

01 The Love Bug
02 Treasure Island
03 Song of the South
04 Swiss Family Robinson
05 Blackbeard's Ghost
06 Snowball Express
07 Bedknobs and Broomsticks
08 The Three Musketeers
09 Mary Poppins
10 Davy Crockett and the River Pirates

Almost all of these are childhood favorites of mine, and if I ever should make a number one selection it should be "The Love Bug".
