Take my Disney questionaire!

[Quasimodo]

1. Of all the old Disney animated films (1937-1959), which is your favourite and why?
This is extremely tough, but I'd have to say Fantasia. An absolutely brilliant mix of music and animation. I only wish that this film had been succesful during it's first release so that the plan to continue adding segments could have continued.

2. Of all the middle period Disney animated films (1960-1988), which is your favourite and why?
Not my favorite period for Disney, but I'll go with The Jungle Book. Decent story, good music, and some nice animation.

3. Of all the modern Disney animated films (1989-present), which is your favourite and why?
Depends on which one I last watched, but I'll say The Hunchback of Notre Dame. A slightly more mature tale with gorgeous visuals that contains some of Alan Menken's best work. I could have used a little less of the Gargoyles, but other than that, I love this movie.

4. Of all the old Disney animated films (1937-1959), which is your least favourite and why?
Saludos Amigos. I believe the frustration Walt felt in not having the finances to make the type of movies he wanted to really showed in this one. The studio seemed to adjust a little with each subsequent release.

5. Of all the middle period Disney animated films (1960-1988), which is your least favourite and why?
Tie between The Sword and the Stone and The Rescuers. The first movie just seemed to meander, with Wart being changed into one animal after another for no reason. The second was just incredibly dull to me. I thought Newhart and Gabor were just flat and lifeless in this one.

6. Of all the modern Disney animated films (1989-present), which is your least favourite and why?
Pocahontas. I found the movie to be a little preachy, and as Loomis said, boring. Though it's not entirely to blame to be sure, I believe this movie did negatively effect the box-office returns of the movies that followed.

7. What is your favourite live action Disney film and why?
Don't really care about Disney's live action movies, but I do love Old Yeller. I'm a sucker for the heart of this movie.

8. What is your least favourite live action Disney film and why?
Pete's Dragon. Just did not like this movie at all.

9. Who is your favourite Disney villain and why?
Frollo. A menacing villain that convinced himself that he was doing everything for the right reasons.

10. Who is your least favourite Disney villain and why?
Madame Mim. Doesn't exist long enough for me to care.

11. What is your favourite Disney song and why?
I could go on all day here, but I'd say "When You Wish Upon A Star", "Ain't Never had a friend like me" followed closely by "Hellfire".

12. What is your least favourite Disney song and why?
Not sure if it qualifies as a song, but "Rescue Aid Society" from the Rescuers.

13. How many Disney DVDs/videos do you own?
According to DVD Aficionado I have 49 Disney Animation listings containing 53 titles (I guess due to box sets). There is a link to my DVD collection in my sig, with the Disney Animated movies in a folder.

14. How many Disney CDs do you own?
0

15. Sum up Disney in 3 words.
Makes me broke

1. Of all the old Disney animated films (1937-1959), which is your favourite and why?
Hmmm...probably Snow White, mainly because I love the dwarves and their catchy work song.

2. Of all the middle period Disney animated films (1960-1988), which is your favourite and why?
This is the mostly animated animals period, right? I like 101 Dalmations because I find it the most entertaining out of the whole group. And I like Roger's song about Cruella, I think it's funny.

3. Of all the modern Disney animated films (1989-present), which is your favourite and why?
Oh no, this is a toughie. I love Aladdin, but also Lilo and Stitch and Little Mermaid! I'll say Aladdin because I love every character and Aladdin is the greatest Disney hero. And Abu and carpet crack me up.

4. Of all the old Disney animated films (1937-1959), which is your least favourite and why?
Dumbo. I know it's a classic and Dumbo is a cute elephant, but I never got into the movie, I don't know why. I think that weird dream sequence is what turns me off. And Dumbo looking like a clown just scared me a bit when I was younger.

5. Of all the middle period Disney animated films (1960-1988), which is your least favourite and why?
Sword and the Stone...i just find it unintriguing. Merlin can be a little funny at times, but it just feels slow to me and boring.

6. Of all the modern Disney animated films (1989-present), which is your least favourite and why?
Atlantis. *Yawn*

7. What is your favourite live action Disney film and why?
I haven't seen many of the live action films from before the 90s, probably only Song of the South, the Parent Trap, Escape to Witch Mountain, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, and Swiss Family Robinson. So out of those and the ones from the 90s to present i'll choose...Pirates of the Carribean. I like the action and the characters. Johnny Depp is so entertaining and funny in the film and I love watching sword fights.

8. What is your least favourite live action Disney film and why?
Escape to Witch Mountain. I just don't like it.

9. Who is your favourite Disney villain and why?
Ursula..."don't forget the body language. Ha!"

10. Who is your least favourite Disney villain and why?
The butler from Aristocats.

11. What is your favourite Disney song and why?
"A Dream is a Wish Your Heart Makes." It always made me believe in dreams since I was 3.

12. What is your least favourite Disney song and why?
The song Alice sings in the middle of nowhere - she goes, "I give myself very good advice..." I think it just sounds depressing.

13. How many Disney DVDs/videos do you own?
I don't buy DVDs as often as I should. Since I'm on a very very limited budget, I only buy dvds where I absolutely positively love the movie or tv show. So for Disney DVDs I have like 5, probably less and videos is probably the same. As you can see I'm not as crazy about dvds as everyone on here. I just love disney.

14. How many Disney CDs do you own?
I downloaded the Lilo and Stitch Soundtrack and the Disney Mania CD.

15. Sum up Disney in 3 words.
marketing, licensing, stingy
or "dreams come true"
