I'm with you on that one. It's not a bad movie, not at all. I just remember trying to watch it, looking at my watch the whole time. No matter how much i tried, I just couldn't get into it.

It also had one of the worst, if not the worst, DTV sequels of all Disney history!

My pick: Pocahontas. To me, Pocahontas marked the decline of Disney animation.

After decades of producing brilliant films, in the early 90's Disney topped itself with Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin. When you thought they couldn't get any better, out came The Lion King--an absolute masterpiece.

Then came Pocahontas. Everything about the film was wrong: its formulaic characters (man, woman, anthropomorphic foliage), its overall tone of sappiness, and worst of all, its unabashed political correctness.

Disney followed up Pocahontas with a slew of new mediocre flicks--Hunchback, Hercules, Mulan. The only good 2D film to come out of the post-Pocahontas era (in my humble opinion) is Lilo and Stitch, and Disney has been milking that particular cash cow to no end.

It is apparent to me that this decline in 2D animation--all of which began with Pocahontas--is precisely what forced Disney to end its production of traditionally animated films.

Darn you, Pocahontas. Darn you.

The Black Caouldron

Is just so non-like Disney film.
No songs, no happy ending, many questions at the end, pretty crappy draws, suposed-to-be very scary vilian...

for me that´s the worse

I find it strange, though, that someone would make a screen name having to do with something they hate (no offense, Puka). It's just that I, personally, am not fond of The Aristocats or The Fox and the Hound, and the last thing I'd want to is to be constantly reminded of them everytime I post, even if my screen name's bashing them. I guess your hatred of Pocahontas must be pretty strong in order to be reminded of it on a daily basis.

As I said earlier, The Aristocats and The Fox and the Hound are my two least favorites. I think I dislike Aristocats a bit more, but I find them both to be blah films. Aristocats is too derivative of other (better) Disney films and has THE worst villain in the Disney canon, while Fox and the Hound starts out cute enough in its first act, but then becomes a train wreck of cliches and odd scenarios during its second. Both have nice soundtracks, though, especially The Aristocats (ironially, enough).

There's already a thread about this.

EDIT: Oh, and my least favorite is Cinderella.

PChontas is the worst Disney movie.

I have committed sacrilege.

I, too, am not a fan of Pocahontas. you can't really relate to the characters real well and the music is really horrible. I really wanted to create the username Pukeahontas, but it seems like Pukahontas already got a similar name.

Perhaps Pocahontas fails because it's too serious or highbrow for some.

I happen to love it, though. It has some gorgeous and oh-so-subtle character animation, beautiful songs with some actual depth, and the rare downbeat ending. I believe it has more artistic merit than the more monetarily successful Lion King.

In my opinion, I'd say that the Aristocats is probably their weakest; it doesn't hold a lot of interest for me.

I concur! For me, the animation of the characters is the pinicle of the 90s animation. Somehow they pulled off hardly any "acting" movements and still made the animation believable using small changes in the face and small body movements. That's something you rarely get in animation. Plus, the background designs are close to Sleeping Beauty's beautiful artwork. I also can't see how people can call the songs bad! Just listen to the lyrics, so meaningful and deep!

Alright, alright... I'm done rambling!

Actually, I think the worst is Bambi. Its soooo boring!!!!

Well there is more to it than that. Maybe one day you'll appreciate it more.

What?!

Breath David,breath...
Ok,first of all, man that is just a scene.
The movie is not aout Bami playing all around with his furry pals, but about his life
Is made about a life of a fawn because many people thinks that a fawn is one of the most innocent creatures on this world.
I imagine you ave alread watch tis movie because if you post that and you didn´t watch it how can you say that.
Its about how even when the life is so mean with you, it have those special moments that if you live them they make your life make sense and beautyful

I haven't seen all of the Disney movies but from what I've seen, Sleeping Beauty was the worst. It was boring and I couldn't finish it. I wanted to chop off Aurora's head. The 3 fairies were cute though.

You've got to realize many people think bambi is boring... I almost fell asleep when I watched it, if it weren't for my mom being there
I've seen this movie a lot. I did not like it. It was dull. And I didn't like any of the songs either (Like the april shower song). The only part that was exciting was in the end when the hunters came with the dogs and burned up the forest...

Sheesh the young kids these days.
