What's the weirdest Disney movie?

Okay, my choice goes to The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh. Why? Call me strange, but I find this movie to be kinda psychedelic. Toys live, Tigger seems pretty high, there's weird dreams, illustrations interract with their book surroundings and the whole landscape is pretty surreal.
Call me overcritical, but I don't see this to be a bad aspect of the movie; I just watched it again last week on video (kill me) and it felt whimsical. It's just that I've come to find the whole Pooh concept a bit trippy...

Alice in Wonderland is the weirdest Disney film.

Alice in Wonderland for me.
I mean it's all just a mad, mad acid trip. In a good way.

how can none of you have voted for Return to Oz? I mean wow, creepiest Disney film to have the Disney label. I remember watching this when I was very young. When I learned that this was a Disney film I was blown away!

Alice, of course (which is why I love it so much)!

Return to Oz is also quite bizarre, but I don't find Pinocchio or Pooh bizarre at all. To be honest, I find Pinocchio to be rather eerie and Pooh to simply be whimsical.

I would have to say Return to Oz. That was a really weird Disney movie. Especially, the lady with all the different heads.

I olve that Disney Classic ever so much, and am greatful for my DVD-R, of the movie. But still it is weird, and when I was little it scared the creeps out of me,

I voted for Alice in Wonderland. I always thought that it was pretty weird. It's still one of my favourites despite being so weird.
I love weird movies.

Alice in Wonderland.
I like Disney movies...but this has to be the weirdest one for me.

Oh, I forgot about that one! Yeah, that is pretty weird too. It's pretty psychedelic like
Alice and
Pooh, but it probably bypassed my mind when I was doing the poll. Anyway, I'm not going to add it, as we all know what happens when we edit polls...

I was actually thinking, "The emperor´s New groove" is kinda weird too, even visually, but that´s why it´s so cool.
Of course Alice is the weirdest, because the tale is weird, but.... have you seen the "American McGee´s Alice" videogame???, cause that IS a really weird Alice, beautiful though

That's that really sinister Alice computer game, right? One of my friends dressed as her for Halloween a few years back in high school. I agree, twisted but beautiful.

See, now that's more in line what I'm thinking. As you've seen them all, you'd be a great judge.
I think the thread topic's got to be weirdest Disney animated movie...because even the weirdest animated films are pretty mainstream in comparison to some of the stranger live action Disney films.

- Alice in Wonderland is the most strangest Disney movie out there, perfectly fitting the nonsensical madness of the books.
- Pinnochio, I think, is mean-spirited and dark. It has a good moral, but I think it is vastly overrated. There's much too darkness here (Stromboli telling Pinnochio he will be chopped into firewood when he gets too old or damaged, and the frightening scene of the naughty boys turning into donkeys and being herded into cages) and not enough sweetness and light. I wouldn't want my kids to see it. Disney did the darker story better with The Hunchback of Notre Dame, where it didn't have to scare the audience to make its point clear.
- Fantasia is a wonderfully original confection of classical music and animation - it's funny, scary, wondrous, and immensely satisfying as non-vocal animated movies can get.
- Return to Oz is one such film I liked. It didn't watch up with the original, but it fit nicely as a sequel and did capture the spirit of the book without being slavish.
- Winnie the Pooh wasn't weird, it was a nicely told adaption of A.A. Milne's stories with whimsy and the right amount of sweetness.

Mostly not everybody has seen Midnight Madness including me.
It's hard to find where I live in the stores and in the library.
So, I don't know if it's really is weird.
