I'm trying to use a different approach with this article and I'm going to include user comments!
10.Ursula's transformation into Vanessa
Unfortunately, there were no user comments for this one. I love this transformation, because even though it's short, it's interesting and reveals a lot about Ursula's character. She remains relatively calm throughout the story (until the end), but has random spurts of anger and psychoness, which is blatantly evident in this transformation. And I love how the laugh fades from Ursula's laugh into Vanessa's.
9.Vanessa's transformation back into Ursula
Most people found this transformation exciting but relatively gross. I mean, the woman rips out of her own skin into this giant octopus, it's like a scene out of "The Thing"!
"... that just kinda grossed me out" (tokyogirl0093)
"The fact that it's Ursula is gross but rippage was interesting to me as a kid. XP" (TigerRanma)
8. Maleficent's transformation into a dragon.
Again, no comments on this one. It's another one like Ursula's, quick but scary. I love her line before the transformation: "Now shall you deal with ME, oh prince, and all the powers of HELL!", with the slamming of the staff on the ground and her transformation into a dragon. Maleficent is another villain who stays relatively cool throughout the film, and this shows off her true powers, which we have been anticipating since we first meet her.
7.The Castle/ Objects of the Castle back into humans transformation
This is a quick little happy transformation. First, a wave of sparks takes the castle from being dark and gloomy to bright and interesting. I love how the gargoyles transform into angels, a great example of beast into man. It's interesting to see how the objects look as humans, and how similarly they were portrayed in the objects they took form of under the curse.
"...there is not much to it at all besides a bunch of spinning." (VGfan30)
"Kind of blah." (kenzieiscool)
6. Naveen's transformation into a frog.
Quick but exciting, Dr.Facilier works his voodoo magic on the handsome but unsuspecting Prince Naveen. He takes his blood and transforms him, but into what? We don't see the end result, but it's still fun to see the expression on Lawrence's face and imagine the worst.
"Sure there's a lot of smoke and pretty lights but thats like a cheep magicians trick." (alafastanzio)
5. Ariel's last transformation into a human.
This is a sweet, gratifying moment in the film. Ariel is back as a mermaid, upset and gazing at Eric on the beach. Her father grants her her ultimate wish- to be human. The gold sprays across the water and up Ariel, and the look of extreme joy and happiness just spreads across her face. What people like more is her exit from the water, arms outstretched in that gorgeous purple dress.
"It's a great, wonderful moment in the film....just not a very impressive transformation scene." (alafastanzio)
4. Tiana & Naveen's transformation back into humans.
This is a fun moment, with water swiriling around them, lifting them up into the air. For anyone who didn't figure out she would become a princess ahead of time, it's a surprise twist! The beautiful shining gold light and their new transformation outfits give it some extra pizazz.
"from what I remember, we don't actually SEE the transformations and to be honest I thought it was kind of a rip off of Odette's transformation from The Swan Princess. " (alafastanzio)
"it just cant compete with some of the most classic scenes in cinnima" (founten)
3. Ariel's first transformation into a human
This transformation is exciting and suspenseful. The magic swirls around Ariel's legs, she gets them and then she suddenly can't breath, then she gets rushed to the surface. However, people's favorite part is her gorgeous splash out of the water, so sparkly and beautiful, right in front of the sun, although that's not technically part of the transformation.
"I do like it when she splashes out of the water with that pretty hair though..." (DreamyGal)
"The ACTUAL transformation of Ariel isn't as impressive as the other two. It's just that moment when she splashes to the surface that everybody likes" (alafastanzio)
2. Beast's transformation into a human.
My Personal favorite transformation, this is the longest and most suspenseful. The Beast slowly lifts up and begins to spin around, light shining out of his fingertips and hands, and you see his face begin to transform. It's a suspenseful moment to wait and see what he looks like, and it's joyful at the same time because he has come back to life.
"Beast's transformation is the happiest, because it's after his "death", and then you realize that he's alive, and a human being!!" (ppv)
"I love Beast's transformation but at the end you see him and you want him to go back to beast because at least he didn't looked that gay when he was a beast! XD" (queenblairw)
1. Cinderella's transformation into a princess.
Short but amazing, a swirl of magic and sparks transforms Cinderella from a raggedy maid into a beautiful princess, ready for a night she will never forget. It was even Walt Disney's favorite piece of animation. This transformation is the epitome of disney magic.
"Cinderella's IS the esscence of fairytales." (queenblairw)
"...it's so magical and just represents disney in my opinion." (dweeb)
"it's beautiful =) " (pretty_angel92)
"It's like the reverse of the Queen's transformation- ugly hag into beautiful girl." (princesslullaby)

I mean the woman conjours up lightning and then rips out of her old skin! Its disgusting and short but thrilling for me." (alafastanzio)
