Which Disney DVD(s) do you watch most often, and how often do you watch them? Mine would have to be Lilo and Stitch, followed Mary Poppins. These movies just never get old for me.

I've selected animated, mainly because I own far more Disney animated features than live action. In fact, Miramax and Touchstone aside, I really only have Tron! (Soon making up for this - have 20,000 Leagues and the Herbie box (R4) on order, and Parent Trap is next).
I think that is only a 40:1 discrepancy...

But at the moment my most rewatched is Lilo and Stitch (as my avatar indicates, I'm a huge fan).

But after that, I'd have to say my most rewatched would be something Pixary (Toy Story was watched many a time on VHS before going digital), or The Little Mermaid (which is never getting old for me).

I watch animated Films most. (Mostly Pinocchio). then I watch animated short (Disney Treasures) then Live action films (Santa Clause)

I voted Animated Films too, although lately I have been watching the Walt Disney World travel planning DVDs A LOT... but in six days I won't have to watch them...

I can always watch Rescuers Down Under, Robin Hood, or sword in the stone. I also love the swiss family robinson.

I watch the animation more -- I've only got one live-action Disney DVD (Tuck Everlasting) and one tin of Treasures (Mickey Mouse in Living Color) as opposed to something like 12 animation titles. They all get plenty replay value but I'd guess that the Platinums, Pixars, Spirited Away and Lilo & Stitch find their way into the DVD player most often.

I watch a lot of animated movies; however lately I have been watching many live action. It would have to be a tie to me...but tipping over on the animated side.

the animated movies just have more creativity to them that draws me to them; much more than the acting that goes on in live actions

Definitely animated. I watch The Lion King most of the time. Never get tired of that movie. In fact, when it first came out in 94, I bought it on VHS. I watched it so much the tape broke! I was heartbroken because it had already be locked in the vault and I had no idea where I could get another copy. Then I got hooked on eBay. Well, I ended up paying $20.00 just to get a copy of that movie so my little boy could see it! And it looks like I will be paying another $20.00 (give or take) when it is re-released on DVD. Am I a sucker or what? I think the Fox & the Hound would be the next one that I watch a lot of.

P.S. I really bought it for me!

Animation for me also, I'm not really a fan of live action Disney bar Mary Poppins, Song of the South and Bedknobs and Broomsticks.

The one DVD I watch the most is probably "Pocahontas" (I love "If I Never Knew You") or "Beauty and the Beast".

Certainly the animated features - specialy the action-adventure ones (Atlantis, Treasure Planet...)

Joe Carioca!

I'd have to say live-action. Nobody could work nostalgia like Disney could. He'd never milk it for all it's worth either, he'd just bring you real quality entertainment with top-notch stars of impeccable casting decisions (which i read somewhere walt most always did himself). My favorite live action disney film is the One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band. A complete cheese movie, but it's something that i grew up with. Not on dvd sorrowfully (yet ) so I'd have to say my most watched dvd is either Swiss Family Robinson or 20, 000 Leagues Under the Sea. Both superb dvd sets by the way and i strongly urge you to check them out if you can.

Joe, I am agreeing with you more and more with each post!

Personally I have always enjoyed the animated films, but our daughter has no clear preference. One of her first movie obsessions was Snow Dogs, follwed by Iron Will and then Air Bud. Nowadays it's a mix of animated and live-action, but the one certain thing is she absolutely loves Disney films.

Glad to read that!
I love all the animated features produced since "Fantasia 2000", because they are so different from one another, and they are very different from the usual Disney fare too. I hope these underrated gems (Fantasia 2000, Atlantis, TENG, Lilo, Treasure...) get the acceptance they deserve some day.

Joe Carioca (or José Carioca, as you wish!)

Animated, All the way. This is in part to my larger library of Animated movies ala disney, but I don't think that matters. You can have all the animated movies and 1 live- action, but If you watch the live-action 1 more than ant 1 animated film, I guess that would be your answer. Any way... Hear is a list of how many times I have seen each of my animated DVD in order of least to greatest multiple viewings.

Beauty and the Beast - 3 times
Lilo and Stitch - 3 times (mainly cause everytime someone sees I have it, they want to watch it.)
Treasure Planet - 3 times (great movie, but it will be a while before I see this again.)
The Little Mermaid - ? (This is actually unknown although it should probably be #1, often I times I would put in the DVD to hear a certain song and would just watch from then on. This is my most watched DVD I guess.)
Hercules - 2 times
Hunchback - 2 times (Great film, so under rated)
Snow White - 1.5 times (when my mom bought the DVD I saw the end for the first time, then like a while back, I poped it in to view the special features and wound up watching the whole movie for the first time.)
I am Anxiously awaiting Alice in Wonderland SE before I see that again, which I currently own under Gold banner.

Lately I have been watching my mickey mouse shorts again, and now that I have Silly Symphonies, I'm watching those.

Animated. I'm not sure if I even own any live action Disney films (though I plan on getting "Pollyanna" soon). My "Complete Goofy" set gets a lot of play.
