Hola! It's little ole me again. Ok, so I recently finished rewatching all of the DP films and many of my opinions have changed so I thought, why not make an updated list? When I first joined I just really wanted to make an article so I made my favorite DP movie list but I hadn't seen most of the films in a long time so I was going completely by memory and now that I look back I'm like, hmm these opinions have changed quite a bit now that I've seen them all again. Next to the film name you will see a number in parentheses and that signifies the movement of that movie on my list. Now let me tell you something, I liked them all and making this list was difficult but here it goes...

These are the films that, while good, are missing something for me. All of them have moments that bore me a little alongside great, memorable moments. They all suffer from lulls near the middle that lose me a bit.

12. Cinderella (-1)
Yep, Cinderella is my least favorite. The film does have Disney magic and charm and from the moment the Fairy Godmother arrives onward, the film is truly classic but the rest of it is just a bit...unexciting. The mice scenes are long and tiresome and I find the mice a little annoying. The soundtrack is..meh, it's not bad but it isn't great either. It doesn't help that Cinderella herself has never been one of my favorite princesses and the animation is the most simple to me of any princess film but both are very classy and sophisticated. Their is a sophistication to this film that I like, as well as a nostalgic quality, and I didn't even grow up watching this movie. Not much really happens and the villains, while mean, aren't as evil as some of the other DP villains.

11. Sleeping Beauty (-7)
Oh my! What a drop. It used to be in my top 5 and my favorite classic film, how the mighty have fallen. Ugh, it was difficult for me to put this movie here and I was battling over switching it with #10 or #9 but in the end the cons outweighed the pros. While I love Maleficent, the fairies, and that epic, iconic battle at the end as well as Aurora's voice and two songs, the movie is sort of boring at times. Aside from Aurora's songs, the soundtrack is also...meh. It's ok but their are far better ones. The animation is interesting but it does come across a little flat at times. Aurora also happens to be one of my least favorite princesses, actually it's one of only two that I only have a neutral like for.Still this film has such wonderful, iconic imagery and some truly enchanting moments.

10. Pocahontas (-2)
This film will always hold a special place in my heart since it was released in the same year I was born and was one of my favorite movies growing up but I no longer love it the same way since I see so many of it's problems now. The animation can look stunning but it also comes across a bit flat looking at times. The soundtrack and characters are interesting and memorable but the story has its share of problems. I don't like how none of the characters tell each other the whole story, for example, why couldn't she just tell everyone that John Smith hadn't killed Kocoum? Anyway, I still love Pocahontas, even though I found her a little less interesting than I remember and sidekicks are alot of fun. Ratcliffe is a fun character but not nearly as evil or menacing as other Disney villains and he never even comes in contact with or threatens Pocahontas so I don't really think he's that great of a villain. This film lost my attention a bit in the middle and seemed a little more drawn out than it needed to be and it's the weakest of the renaissance films but it's still so nostalgic and their are some really great moments so I still really like it.

9. Brave (0)
This movie is very nice and I like it but it just doesn't excite me the way the ones higher than it do. The animation is gorgeous, definitely the best of any Pixar or computer animated DP film and the soundtrack is very nice but the story is sort of predictable and parts of it bore me a bit. I love Merida though and the characters as a whole are very interesting and memorable. It just lacks something which keeps me from really loving it. Still, I enjoyed it just a bit more than #s 12, 11, and 10.

From now on all the films keep me engaged and I really love them. They all have a lot of Disney magic, well one is sort of lacking in it, but still these films are great. It was extremely difficult to put these ones in order.

8. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (+2)
This is now my favorite classic Disney film, I love it. It's so charming and fun. I never realized how great this movie is until I rewatched it, and now I really love Snow White too. Disney did an excellent job with his very first feature film and this one set the stage for so many other magical films. It never bores me, the soundtrack is so nice and classic, the characters are so iconic, and it has one of my favorite DP villains. Queen Grimhilde's scenes are so dark and dramatic, I love them. It's strange because not a lot happens in it, especially in the middle, but I don't ever feel a lull in the storytelling and I love the animation, it's got that old fashioned, painting like look that I really like. It has so many great moments.

7. The Little Mermaid (-2)
Talk about Disney magic. This film has bucket loads of it. No wonder it brought on the Disney renaissance. The soundtrack is great and I get goosebumps just listening to the score. No Disney film oozes Disney magic like this one, it's the only one who's commercials even have that special nostalgic Disney feel that gets me excited about Disney. It is truly magical and a classic but it still suffers from quite a few story and animation problems and Ariel, while nice, doesn't interest me as much as some of the other princesses. The characters are very memorable, I especially like Sebastian, he is so funny. I don't remember watching it growing up, yet when I finally did see it, it felt like it had always been a part of my life, like a reunion with a long lost friend. Like all DP films it is beautiful in it's own way but this one has something special that I love, I just love others more. I realized that Ursula is a great villain and it has some wonderful scenes but the animation, while charming, is my least favorite out of the renaissance films.

6. The Princess and the Frog (+6)
I was way too harsh on this film last time. After rewatching it I realized that their is a reason why it brought on the revival, it's great.
I really did love it. The animation is gorgeous, the best of any traditionally drawn DP film and the characters are just so fun and interesting. I used to dislike the soundtrack but it's really grown on me and I like most of the songs now. This film has a great and very original story and it really exudes Disney magic and has so many wonderful moments that I'm sure that years from now it will be considered a true classic. I now love Tiana and Louis doesn't annoy me as much as he used to. I also now like Dr. Facilier, he's creepy but that's the whole point. Anyway, I have no idea what was wrong with me before because now I recognize that this is one of the best Disney films since the renaissance.

5. Beauty and the Beast (+2)
Again, what was wrong with me before? How could I not see how great this movie really is? This film is a true classic. It's elegant and sophisticated, intelligent and beautiful, and plenty of that Disney magic. I think the characters are very memorable, especially the sidekicks, and I now like both Belle and the Beast more. The soundtrack has a nice Broadway musical feel and animation is lovely, especially in the iconic ballroom scene. No wonder this film is beloved by so many people, I love it too. Gaston is not that great of a villain though and like every movie it isn't flawless but it's still very deserving of the praise it receives.

4. Tangled (+2)
This is the movie that restored my faith in Disney films after that largely abysmal post renaissance period.I think it has it all: humor, romance, action and adventure, nice animation, a good story, great characters and that special Disney feel. The only thing that it lacks is a strong soundtrack but other than that it's a great movie. I love Rapunzel, Flynn, and Pascal and think that Mother Gothel is one of the most interesting DP villains. This film has some really magical, memorable moments and is so much fun. It also sort of feels like a breath of fresh air, I'm not sure why. I guess I just really like the modern feel of this film.

3. Frozen (-1)
I was sort of scared to put this one so high since I know so many people seem to be tired of it and it is still very new but gosh darnnit I like it, so here it is. And now let me delight you with a lovely rendition of that song we all know the words to, Let it Go! On second thought, let's skip the lovely rendition. This film is very fun and has that modern feel that I like. The animation is great and the soundtrack is excellent, I love that it has such a Broadway feel. I really like all of the characters, especially Anna and Kristoff, they make such an adorkable couple. Yes, I know, the story has issues but really they all have their own issues so it doesn't bother me. Since it's still new I put it at #3 instead of #2 but still, it gets more hate than it deserves, it's not ultra original or perfect but I don't mind. I felt the Disney magic when I saw it in theaters, it didn't disappoint me then and I actually even like it more now.

2. Aladdin (+1)
I've always loved this movie because it's just such a magical classic. It's so engaging and fun and so very nostalgic. I love the setting, characters, soundtrack, villain, story, pretty much everything:) It has my favorite prince/hero and some of the best sidekicks of any Disney film. Jafar is an excellent and very creepy villain and Jasmine is a brave princess, I mean she had to kiss Jafar, I shudder at the thought, but all joking aside I actually do like Jasmine more now. The animation is nice and I don't find it too cartoony like some people say. The cave of wonders scene is fantastic and the film is filled with iconic scenes. I've always been interested in the Arabian Nights and other fantastical, exotic stories like that so this film has always captured my imagination.

1. Mulan (0)
Yep, nothing has changed :) I was afraid to rewatch Mulan because I didn't want to end up disliking it but as I soon as I saw the first brush stroke appear on the screen, I remembered why I love it so much. The movie is as close to perfection as a DP movie can get, in my opinion. It has everything to appeal to everyone: action, adventure, plenty of humor, great animation, a wonderful soundtrack, an ultra creepy villain, memorable and fun characters, and it's set in China( I love Asian stuff). I've always loved Mulan, she's a brave and very funny character but she's not perfect, like some say, and is such a good role model. I love every character but especially Grandma Fa and Mushu alongside Mulan. I loves that epic mountain battle, ah, it's just so fantastic, and that final battle, love it. I love how this movie is more serious and action packed than all the other DP films, it's so exciting. Strangely enough, I didn't sense a lot of Disney magic when I rewatched this one but I guess that's because it's a Chinese war film, it still has such a special, timeless feel to it and I have a feeling that this spot won't be changing any time soon. It hasn't in 15 years. I don't see how anyone can dislike this movie.

Well there it is. I hope I didn't bore you. I must restate that I like all of these films. They are all special, beautiful, timeless, magical, classic, wonderful films, how could anyone not love DP movies? Making those collages was so difficult because each movie had so many iconic scenes but they also each have such nice animation that I tried to give a taste of the unique essence of each film. I tried to do each film justice in the explanations and pictures and hope you enjoyed this article. This list was pretty difficult to make and I'd love to know your thoughts, so please comment below...well what are you waiting for? ;)
