Personally, I think Hercules and Megara are the best animated couple from Disney. Lady and the Tramp, and Pocahontas and John Smith are up there, too, imo. Most of their couples are boring though, tbh.

Bernard and Bianca, of course. I like how they start out as just colleagues, then grow a friendship and then start to love each other. My favorite moment in the movie is that little, subtle moment when they're flying through the night on Orville's back, and she dozes off against him and he slowly puts his arm around her. Aaaaawwww!

Flynn and Rapunzel. Their romance was so believable, and for once, I actually wanted them to be a couple. Bernard and Bianca are another one that comes to mind, for reasons Goliath already said.

Aurora and Phillip: Best looking couple.

Lady and the Tramp: A cliche now, but well done (I also like how they're not above having pre-marital sex :P).

Bernard and Bianca: Best for develoment. I was going to say LatT for this, but their relationship seems more subtle, largely because it's not featured in the title.

Flynn and Rapunzel: Just so cute.

Aladdin and Jasmine: Second best for looks.

I'm not sure who my favorite couple is, but my mother says Ray and Evangeline.

Aladdin and Jasmine. They're intrinsic similarities were visible from the moment they met, and they both risked their lives for each other, learned to forgive each other for lying to each other about their identities, and accepted each other for who they truly were.

Second best, a tie between Flynn and Rapunzel, and Hercules and Meg. Both risked their lives for each other. But they are both total opposites.

Belle and The Beast are my favorite Disney couple. They have some great development :) My honourable mentions would be Lady and Tramp (so sweet), Duchess and O'Malley (their rooftop scene makes me swoon), and Bernard and Bianca (so cute) I'm not really keen on most of the human couples. I might like the individual characters, but the romance tends to be dull.

Yeah, that's another one. I think they have a nice chemistry, partly because they are both mature unlike most of the young couples.

I feel the same way. I think part of the reason is that Disney too often falls back on the "opposites attract" idea. Even the ones I've mentioned are pretty much the same way (Hercules is naive, Megara is worldy and cynical; Lady and the Tramp, the same; and so on). And you're also right about the individual characters thing. Characters like Jasmine, Eric, Shang, Flynn, etc. just don't live up to the characters they're paired with.

Rapunzel and Flynn
I just thought their relationship was so realistic and heartwarming and I JUST LOVE THEM.


Hercules and Megara
I just loved them and I just loved the development of Meg throughout the movie.

Aurora and Phillip
From their first encounter in the forest to the kiss, every moment was beautiful

I would say Beauty and the Beast and Hercules and Meg. I just loved the deveopment of it.

Although, I will always have a special place in my heart for Aladdin in Jasmine though.

Agreed. But could somebody explain to me what was so good about Aurora and Philip? They met, they danced, she goes to sleep, he kisses her, she wakes, they marry... WTF?! They are cardboard cut-outs. They have no personality. She is just there to be saved. He is just there to be a hero. Where is the character development, where is the realtionship? I don't see it.

That's often the case. Romance should always happen, even if it means creating a boring cub machine like Vixey :lol:

As in Rose and Bernard from Lost? :wink:

I know who you mean, though, and I agree Bernard and Bianca are pretty cute. :)

My favorites:
1. Belle and the Beast: you really get to know each of the characters, and more importantly they really get to know each other. Belle and the Beast's romance isn't rushed at all, and the audience can see that months pass before they fall in love. It's more mature and realistic than the fall-in-love-in-two-days-and-live-happily-ever-after kind of romance.
2. Rapunzel and Flynn: they have the best of the fall-in-love-in-two-days-and-live-happily-ever-after kind of romance.
3. Tarzan and Jane. I'm not really sure why this one works for me, but it does. :P
4. Duchess and O'Malley

Bernard and Bianca are probably on my list too. Must re-watch movie.
