I never really liked Sleepy Beauty. It was too weird, and didn't do anything for me.

I've watched Pocahontas so many times I am starting not to care that much for it either.

Alot of the sequels


I know the sequels and Finding Nemo aren't part of the 44 classics, but they were pretty bad so I included them!
Well I'd like take out "The Three Caballeros" from the ones I don't like, because I rediscovered that film a couple months ago! WOW! It's a stroke of genius! I LOVED IT!

I still don't care for "Fun and Fancy Free" or "Melody Time" though, and I haven't seen the others.

Finding Nemo is still my least favorite Pixar film as it lacks heart and humor, but I must admit I'm starting to like it a bit more, maybe I'll really like it again the next time I see it.

I'd also like to add in "Lady and the Tramp" and "The Fox in the Hound" into the ones I hate as I had more fun watching paint dry on a wall.

I still HATE Cinderella, THe Black Cauldron, Pocahontas and The Hunchback and Oliver and Company though!

Well, I don't hate any of the animated classics. However, I strongly dislike the Aristocats, Home on the Range, and Oliver & Company. I don't know what it is about those three, but I can never watch them from beginning to end without leaving the room at least once.

Your Least Favorite Animated Classic?

Post by Widdi »

I did a search for a similar topic, but came up with nothing, which honestly shocked me.

You guys can't possibly love every one of Disney's 45 animated classics. There has to be at least one that really rubs you the wrong way. So which one(s) is it?

Personally, and I know I'm going to get some grief for this, I can't stand Fantasia. I find it too long, and incredibly boring. If they had just strung the animated segments together I maybe would have liked it more, but they have to interupt all the time and talk. I don't know about you guys but that guys voice puts me to sleep. The animation is beautiful, I won't take that away from it, but everything else bores me to tears.

The other package films, with the exception of Saludos Amigos, the Three Caballeros and the Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad tie for next bottom spot. Chicken Little gets the title as my least favourite of the non-package films.

You make me cry.

For me it would have to be a draw between The Aristocats and The Fox and the Hound. I've sat through three-hour films that didn't make me shift in my seat as much. The stories and characters in both just don't interest me much at all. I may have to give The Aristocats a slight edge over Fox and the Hound, though. The former at least has a decent soundtrack thanks to the Sherman brothers. The latter doesn't fare as well (even if "Best of Friends" is a good song). I don't think either one of them are bad movies, just above average. When it comes to Disney, though, above average just doesn't cut it.

I have a few with only one simple reason: I haven't seen them. I'm sure that I would like the package features because of the "Fantasia"-esque quality of most of them. And "The Adventures of Icabod and Mr. Toad" sounds really good too. But still, I have not seen them, and they are all at the bottom of my list. Also on that list, for the same reason listed above, is "Home on the Range" and "The Jungle Book." I would really like to see these films but I have yet to watch them. I've been looking out for a cheap new copy of HotR and waiting for TJB in October.

Well, that is actually a pretty tough call. At first, I would say "The Black Cauldron" because of it's poor plot. But then, IMO, I think it has great characters. Second, I would say "The Rescuers Down Under" but that is only because I haven't seen it in awhile and I don't have that great of a memory. Next would be "The Great Mouse Detective" for the same reason as TRDU. So in order I think I would say (from greatest to least):

1. "The Rescuers Down Under"
2. "The Great Mouse Detective"
3. "The Black Cauldron"

That was tough. :roll:

least favorites:

Pinocchio - never been that fond of the story
Fantasia - i appreciate what it stands for, but i don't find it particularly interesting
Most of the Package films - except for make mine music, as i am in love with all the cats join in, but i've never seen the South American films, I own em, but haven't watched yet
Hunchback of Notre Dame - i've only seen it once.. and it didn't captivate me

These I guess I add to the list of possible least favorites as I've never seen them yet or I don't hardly remember it (GMD)

Aristocats
Black Cauldron
Great Mouse Detective
Oliver and Company
Atlantis
Treasure Planet

The only movie that I really really really do not like is Oliver and Company. The songs seem out of place in the movie and the animation of the cars and trucks is very crude. The adaptation of a Charles Dickens tales, which is both uplifting and heartbreaking, into a non compelling piece of animation is another reason to put this one on the bottom of the list. However by having this one in your collection, it helps to elevate every other disney animated film. It would be interesting to see how Disney would do a version of Oliver today, if it was done in the mode of Hunchback it would be terrific.
