If you have (or were) to write a top 20 film list, how many Disney movies (animated) appear?

The Lion King, Aladdin, Beauty and the Beast, Toy Story 2, Toy Story and Finding Nemo easily makes into my list.

Edit: I have discovered that Monsters, Inc. also beats into my Top 20 list too.

Don't be insane! My top 20 list would comprise of nothing but Disney films!

I think I'd fit in this category. Well, I might throw in Meredith Willson's "The Music Man". But most would definitely be Disney.

Man are you kidding MOST of my favorite movies are all Disney. I really dont know or care for to much else. but thats just me.

Here's my list as of now, it may change over time, or when I remember a movie that I didn't think of at present time:
These are basicly ranked, but I don't have time to fix the order of a few of them, I'll do it sometime tomorrow if I remember.

• 01. Aladdin
  02. The Little Mermaid
  03. Beauty and the Beast
  04. The Lion King
  05. Anastasia
  06. Dumbo
  07. 50 First Dates
  08. Sweet Home Alabama
  09. Pirates of the Carribean
  10. Star Wars Episode 2 Attack of the Clones
  11. The Prince and Me
  12. The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement
  13. The Princess Diaries
  14. Ever After
  15. Ella Enchanted
  16. Back to the Future Trilogy
  17. The Return of Jafar
  18. Finding Nemo
  19. Lilo and Stitch
  20. Mulan

My top 20 list goes as follows:

1. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)
2. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope (1977)
3. Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
4. Sleeping Beauty (1959)
5. Pirates of the Carribean (2003)
6. Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983)
7. The Little Mermaid (1989)
8. How the Grinch Stole Christmas (2000)
9. Bruce Almighty (2003)
10. Shrek (2001)
11. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
12. Hary Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
13. Beauty and The Beast
14. Shrek 2 (2004)
15. Spiderman (2002)
16. Spiderman 2 (2004)
17. Monster's Inc. (2001)
18. The Mask (1995)
19. Matilda (?)
20. 101 Dalmations (1961)

I'd say at least 5, with maybe another 6 falling just short.

Hmmm havent compiled a list but I would think Fantasia, Aladdin and Swiss Family Robinson would be there for sure. Pretty likely for Pirates and Monsters Inc. too.

Shrek would be the other animated movie to make it.

Other movies in for sure are Raiders of the Lost Ark, Star Wars a New Hope and Empire Strikes Back, Caddyshack, A fish Called Wanda, Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

My list changes once in a while.

1. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King (2003)
2. Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (1980)
3. Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope (1977)
4. The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)
5. The Lion King (1994)
6. The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring (2001)
7. Forrest Gump (1994)
8. Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)
9. Aladdin (1992)
10. Beauty and the Beast (1991)
11. The Sound of Music (1965)

*Update: I almost forgot the fantastic Se7en. Now I've added it.

See, I knew I missed something!

Edited my original post: Number 16 from She's All That to Back to the Future Trilogy

Right now, it's five (in my top twenty). With another four or five just outside of it.

1. Lilo & Stitch (2002)
2. Hoosiers (1986)
3. Gosford Park (2001)
4. Amelie (2001)
5. The Rescuers Down Under (1990)
6. Roman Holiday (1953)
7. Fantasia 2000 (2000)
8. Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977)
9. Sense and Sensibility (1995)
10. Punch-Drunk Love (2002)
11. Notorious (1946)
12. My Fair Lady (1964)
13. Brother Bear (2003)
14. Star Trek: First Contact (1996)
15. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (2000)
16. The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947)
17. Mr. Deeds Goes to Town (1936)
18. Days of Heaven (1978)
19. Bambi (1942)
20. Hero (2004)

The Emperor's New Groove, The Lion King, and Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs are just outside (between 20 and 30). And, once I'm able to see Mulan (come the DVD release), it could be a contender for the list, as well, so ... and, naturally, if I did an even larger list (say, like, 50), I would have still more Disney films present.

In fact, Hero was released in 2002, but it was delayed for theatrical release in the US till now.

Okay. Thanks for the info. In future, then, I'll use the correct date.
