Since you seem to like the comedies, these Walt originals are great:
The Parent Trap! (original)
The Absent-Minded Professor
Son of Flubber
That Darn Cat! (original)
The Shaggy Dog (original)
Blackbeard's Ghost
(I'd add Sammy, the Way-Out Seal but it's not available)

Some of these are not exactly comedies, but they're still good:
- Darby O'Gill and the Little People
- The Gnome-Mobile
- Babes in Toyland
- Big Red
- The Incredible Journey
- Old Yeller/Savage Sam
- Toby Tyler
- Swiss Family Robinson
- the rest of Herbie movies

Ugly Dauschand is good.


Classic 1950 Treasure Island.


(though when I rented these, I had Disc problems and ended up buying both of them eventually because I never got to watch them fully).

And stick with just the original Parent Trap. The sequel is a TV movie NOT made when Walt was alive.

I haven't seen that one in a long time. I remember watching it on the Disney Channel. I do not remember much about it though.
