1940s: The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad. Come now, it shows you the world! Travel! Change! Excitement!

1950s: Sleeping Beauty. You poor simple fools, thinking I'd pick something else. Something Else! Over the mistress of all Disney animated films!

1960s: The Happiest Millionaire (but this is the best decade ever, especially the years of 1961, 1967 and 1960). There are those who don't consider this a very good Disney film. And there are those who wear bibs when they eat, but generally speaking they are not people of interest.

1970s: Bedknobs and Broomsticks. Anything and everything a chap can unload can be found in this piece of Subsitutiary history.

1980s: The Great Mouse Detective. The worlds' greatest criminal caper tale!

1990s: Hocus Pocus (hellz ya!, with Newsies and Rocketeer next). If you don't believe I chose this you better get superstitious. Ask my sisters, it's wicked!

2000s: Hard choice, might say Enchanted. (ENG, TP, L/S, Pirates 1 all good). I don't know what melodramatic means either, but I love this film!

Crap, somehow forgot about that. Scrap Meet the Robinsons. Enchanted most certainly wins this decade so far as far as I am concerned.

This is absolutely impossible. There is no way I can pick my favourite classics. I like them all for different reasons. :?

I agree with you, the 50's and the 90's was the hardest decades to pick from, simply because they were the best decades in my opinion when it comes to animated Disney classics. I also thought that the 60's and 70's was a little difficult, because I really don't care so much about the Disney-movies from those decades. I don't care that much for the 40's or the 80's either, but bout of those decades got one (The Little Meramaid) or two (Bambi and Pinocchio) movie(s) who stood out above the rest. In my opinion that is;)

Favorite Disney movie of the decade?

Post by Cheshire_Cat »

Has there ever been a thread in which we say what our favorite Disney movies from each decade, starting with the '40s, are? If not, then I was thinking that it would be a good idea for a new thread.

Thank you, Escapay. I did a search to see if there were any existing threads like this, but I'll be honest, I didn't search through all the pages because I tend to be a little lazy.

I guess I'll make my list in this thread.

1940s: Pinocchio. I found Bambi to be a little boring, and Dumbo was a little too cartoonish for me. I haven't seen any of the other movies.

1950s: Tie between Sleeping Beauty and Alice in Wonderland.

1960s: One Hundred and One Dalmatians

1970s: The Rescuers

1980s: The Little Mermaid

1990s: Beauty and the Beast

2000s: Lilo and Stitch

No worries. You can make your list here, since this thread will likely get merged with an older one by a mod, and thus will get bumped up anyway. ;)
