They are part of that young boy's defense team! They're just looking for clues in order to crack this case and save that young child.

Or the flaws can be huge, like in Lion King, why does the King of Beasts not hunt and kill a zebra or a wildebest? No wonder he's such a wuss! Even Nala beats his butt!
Or in Lilo & Stitch, why does she think that it is an abomination that a fish eat another fish? That is just preachy, politically correct, nonsense!
In answer to the first part: Male Lions Do NOT hunt! Only the females hunt.
Second part: She is looking at fish eating fish like people eating people, she sees it as cannibalism, thus the abomination comment.

Thank You!!!!
Ugh.... well most of you know my thoughts on Pinocchio....
I am going to see Oliver and Company again sometime soon, we'll see if my opinion changes upoun a second veiwing, i also have got to see Great Mouse Detective....
Perhaps my views on both of these will change when i see them, again and for the first time....
Pinocchio, however will always be disturbing...
Oh and Mearj I did not get your sig or ur Avatar until I saw this this thread! lol... sorry Tangela

Aristocats really didn't do it for me, but I LOVE the anthology sets from the 40s--Wonderful!

For me, Aristocats and Pocahontas didn't do it for me.
One from each era of Disney. Those two are just there. Especially Pocahontas. Very Blah in terms of an animated feature.

The 60s and 70s really don't have any films I'm particularly fond of. Part of it has to do with the animation - in both eras, it looks shoddy to me (I know in some films, thats just the style, but I still don't like the way it looks). The other part is that I'm not crazy about most of the stories they used, save for Winnie the Pooh.
That being said, I don't hate any of them. I'm just not fond of them.
However, if there's one Disney movie I hate, it's Atlantis. Terrible movie storywise and character wise, IMO.
Three in my mind stand out as seriously below the rest

Atlantis
The Rescuers(I much preferred down under)
and far and away the worst ... The Black Cauldron.

Dumbo and Bambi I can't watch. They are just too sad! I thought Fantasia got kind of boring, and I hated Little Mermaid and Pocahontas. I didn't really like Aladdin, Lilo and Stitch, and (sorry Luke) Lion King either... Please don't kill me now.

Hmm... Interestingly masochistic thread. And there doesn't seem to be a clear pattern in the dislikes, either.
Do you think that it could have something to do with us - apart from being different people - being different generations? Perhaps a Disney movie just hits home harder if you watch it as a kid? A lot of people here don't seem to like Aristocats, for instance, but I really think it's magical. I guess I was about eight when it came out. On the other hand, I never saw the point of The Lion King, but my kids loved it. They, incidentally, were seven and eight at the time...
That doesn't mean I don't think some of the classics are not better than others, just that the age/generation thing might be a biasing factor. As for me, I don't really dislike any of the classics (although Oliver & co is a low point) and I'm happy to say I now (got Pocahontas today!) own all available on dvd! Jiipee!

How can you say the Aristocats, Rescurers, Black Cauldron, and the Sword in the Stone are Bad?? These movies were great movies. They had wonderful characters and unforgetable characters. The Aristocats had great songs that make you want to dance. The Rescurers is one of the saddest and most memorable movies with great animation. The Black Cauldron was the first movie ever with 3-d animation. Without that Toy Story would of never came or ever came as soon as it did. It has memorable characters and is a very suspensful story. The Sword in the Stone was a great telling of The Middle Ages and King Author's Court. It also had melodius songs.
Just watch, those may of been in Disney's so called "Dark Ages"; but now with Atlantis, Lilo and Stitch, Treasure, Planet, and Bother Bear is only the first sequence of Disney's long "Black Plague".
