Yeah, outside of the ACs, I hate what I saw of Tron. To be fair, I didn't finish it. I just couldn't.

The Emperor's New Groove and Home on the Range were the biggest jokes to come out of Disney. I'm tired of hearing people say that these two films reflect the comedy styles of Chuck Jones.

Why oh why would you want to salute an animator who is your major competitor?!!!

I think Atlantis would be third on that list. A sci fi action flik that is Disney because it's animated? That's a joke too!

Just one thing Emperor's New Groove was something different and I think that's why people loved it so much.

As for myself, I cannot stand both Resucuer films, the characters just do nothing for me.

But the film I loathe the most is Pochahontas. It was a product of Jeffrey Katzenberg at his most pretentious.

I don't hate any of them. However, I strongly dislike the Aristocats.

Well I am like most here I don't really hate a movie I just dont care for it very much. I dont know some might say I am crazy but I really never cared much for Snow White. Crazy yes I know its the one that stared it all but it just never has done much for me. The Black Cauldron is another but everything about the movie is just off for me. And then there is Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Nothing against the film I just expected more from it.But thats just me and my thoughts.

Well hate is far too strong a word but I really cant stand watching the Black Cauldron or the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

no hate here! I'm very fond of every Disney film in their own special way ::my precious!!::

I didn't expect so many of you to not like so many Disney flicks. I am mostly impressed by the dislike of masterpieces such as TLK, Cinderella and the Jungle Book.
Evryone has their own opinions though right. I love all the ones that I saw as a child for nostalgia reasons and other reasons. The ones the I see now for the first time though can sometimes disappont.

I dislike Bambi, Sword in the Stone, Saludos Amigos, The Three Caballeros, Make Mine Music, Fun and Fancy Free, Melody Time, Sleeping Beauty, The Aristocats, Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh and Atlantis: The Lost Empire.

I don't think the word is hate, I like parts in the movies, but the movies overall don't attract to me.

My least favorite is the last one, Home on the Range. It was embarrassingly bad. Before that came along, Robin Hood was my least favorite. If I hear OODELALLY one more time, I'm going to puke.

But I have found that the more I watch my least favorites, the more I can appreciate them.

You must be stoned to death! I'm just really shocked since those are two of my favorites.

Yeah, it shocks me that Sleeping Beauty would make anyone's bottom list (not so much Pooh). I love Alice, but others not liking it seems common, so it's no shock. Most people really like Sleeping Beauty.

-Aaron

I can see why some would dislike Sleeping Beauty, I mean, the story needed some more work I guess. But as a lover of animation, it's hard not to like it, it's a groundbreaking artistic masterpiece. Can't keep my eyes of it

I thought Hercules was a little boring. I thought the film's plot was a little weak. I loved the special effects though. Bob Goldthwait and Danny DeVito were great!

Well, let me explain myself a little further then... Like I said I only like parts of the movies I dislike in general. In Sleeping Beauty I love the animation, and the scenes with the three good fairies in them. The rest is pretty bland in my opinion, the story lacks something... Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, well... I never liked Winnie the Pooh and that must be the reason why I don't like the movie too. He is too calm and his voice is so slow for me to like him

What if you had the ability to speed up the film so his voice was higher pitched and faster; would you like him more, then?

Not crazy at all, I completely agree with you...it's not so much the story or the villian, or even the dwarfs (which, in my opinion are way over-rated)...but the main character, Snow White, and her actions. I just can't stand her! I mean, if you look at the other Princesses (for this post I'll define princess as Belle, Snow White, Cinerella, Ariel, Jasmine, and Aurora.) they all are heroic or at least go for what they want.
Snow White - Is almost murdered by the huntsman because she's prettier than the Wicked Queen, (what a lame reason for murder), She runs into the forest and lives with seven little old men as their cook and maid. Is naive enough to eat something a stranger gave her. Wishing apple, yeah...oookay....
Belle - Gave up her freedom for her father and dealt with the stubborn beast.
Cinderella - Went to the castle and got her prince. Didn't give up when Lady Tramaine locked her up.
Ariel - Went to Ursula to become a human. Left the safety of her own world to go and get her man. Granted, not the smartest idea going to the sea witch, but she thought it was her only choice, and (IMHO) she thought she could get him to kiss her in 3 days.
Jasmine - Ran away from home because she was tired of palace life. Kissed Jafar, willingly, to help Aladdin. 'Nuf said.
Aurora - Wasn't told about her fate as a princess until the day she was suppose to die. Was protected by the three good faeries and was only fell into a sleep. Slept through the majority of the movie. (Okay, this one is like Snow White, but I really have a soft spot for her, and as far as I remember, she didn't know what might happen...though what kind of princess is going to go near a spinning wheel, let along use one?)

Here's my list of the Disney Animated films I dislike:

Make Mine Music
The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad
The Aristocats
The Black Cauldron
The Great Mouse Detective
Fantasia 2000
Atlantis - The Lost Empire
Treasure Planet
Home on the Range

I could not have said it better myself .

Out of the ones I have seen (I haven't seen 12 of them)...I'd have to say:
These are in no particular order

Robin Hood (Despicable)
Sleeping Beauty (Great animation, art, and story, voices, characters...miserable presentation)
Atlantis (no song)
Toy Story 1+2

There will probably be more since I haven't seen them all (some for a reason). I might watch Alice in Wonderland tomorrow.
