Hello, I'm PrueFever, a 32 years old guy from Denmark and a Major Disney Fan! My all-time favorite Disney Movie is The Little Mermaid, Walt Disney's 28th full-lenght animated classic from 1989. I just love all the characters in the movie, the songs, the score and the animation. I grew up with Mermaid, it was the first Disney Movie I saw, so there's definitely nostalgic reasons as well, I'm not gonna deny that! I can always watch the movie and my mood goes up 100%! It never fails to amaze me. Also, the voice actors in this movie is spetacular! Jodi Benson is great as Ariel and even greater as Vanessa. I love the fact that she voiced the sweet-loving Ariel and the evil-hateful Vanessa. Just goes to show what an amazing voice-over she is! Pat Carroll as Ursula is pure awesomeness! She does a bang-up job! I've seen some of the videos on YouTube where she visits Walt Disney World in Florida and I must say, I have the ultimate respect for this woman! She's so full of life, even at the age of 90 (soon). Samuel E. Wright shines as Sebastian. And all the rest of the cast is great!

Now, over a year ago, I posted a poll @ the Walt Disney Characters Spot, asking what my fellow Fanpoppers Favorite Scene from The Little Mermaid is because I want to know what other people think of the movie.
Nearly 600 Fanpoppers has voted in the poll (Thanks guys)
I've devided the movie into 31 parts. That's a lot of choices, so you have to think hard if you can't quite remember the movie. If you're one of these Fanpoppers who hasn't voted yet, you can vote here:

I'm trying to get as many Fanpoppers to vote and comment and your vote could really help a lot :) I'd really appreciate it as every little vote counts :)



The winning Scene is the Final Scene in the movie where Princess Ariel finally gets to become human, kiss and marry the Prince of her dreams and King Triton has to let go of his daugther. It's a beautiful ending to a great movie, so I get why most people like this scene so much.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

wavesurf: Well, besides the fact that this is one of the Disney movies I love to pieces...it is the resolution of the angry misunderstanding at the very heart of the movie...that makes this scene all the more poignant to me. I tear up every time I see it. This movie packs a punch. But the final battle scene where Ariel tries to rectify her wrongs, and this scene, where Triton tries to rectify his wrongs, are my favorites. It's touching even after 25+ years.

fluffyduckling: It's one of my favourite Disney movie, if not movie, endings, it's so beautiful and the chorus at the end is amazing.

ClassicTV: I'll choose this one. I love happy endings! Plus it's always great to see the characters you've gotten to know and love getting back to their lives and getting what they've wanted/needed after all that they've been through to recessive it. :-)

Tippany: A good ending is the cure to everything.

KataraLover: It was always my favorite scene, this and both of the Part of Your World scenes.

disneymagic93: This is hands down my favorite scene!

NectariaKiritsi: I liked so many scenes in this movie but this is the one that I liked the most. It was great to see Ariel and Eric getting married at the end instead of having Eric marrying another girl and Ariel dying like the original ending of the original fairy tale by Hans Christian Andersen.

    
laylastepford: This was way too hard. I pretty much love every scene and this is one of my favorite Disney Princess films of all time. The scenes, the scores, the songs, the characters, the symbolism, everything is amazing.

Stalag: Happy Ending/Wedding at last was what we all wanted to see.

AmberEdith: It's my favorite Disney movie, so I love it all! But I love the happy ending the most :) Btw, the icons are beautiful!

jessowey: This is my favourite bit because Ariel looks so pretty in her wedding dress.

fahmad27: It's my favorite part of the movie because it was so emotional and so extremely happy! You can feel the happiness from the characters during this wedding scene. And it's the time where I can watch Ariel/Eric kiss and not worry about mean old Ursula trying to split them up!



The next Scene from the Movie that many people love very much, is the scene where Ariel is in her secret grotto with Flounder and (unknown to them) Sebastian. Many thinks this is the scene where the heart of the movie is, because we get to know about Ariel's dreams and desires. Swimming around in her grotto, singing Part of Your World, it sets Ariel's character. It shows us what she wants and so much of the rooting interest of her comes out of this song.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

1012jackson: I like this scene cause of the song. One of my fave Disney songs.

thequirkyquail: I have many favorite scenes - The Little Mermaid is such a beautiful film. But this scene has always captivated me. The Main Titles is my second favorite scene - I love the beautiful animation and lovely music.

MaidofOrleans: This is such an inspiring scene! It's always been one of my favorites.

Gia1313: This was so hard to pick a favorite. I finally went with Ariel's grotto, Ariel & Eric's reunion and "Kiss the Girl" were top contenders.

AaronHaley4ever: Everything I love most about Ariel is shown in this scene.

TotalDramaFan60: I sang this song every time i watched it when i was little.

Asabala2: My favorite part of all time! <3

Sora7395: This was always my favorite part as kid. I love the song and it's so iconic to the movie.

nickfurious94: I just love how she let's herself go in this scene and really opens up and tells the audience what she really wants! Yeah she saw the guy for the first time but it was more than that! Her desire was to "be where the people are" she wanted to "ask them questions and get some answers" this girl was determined to fulfill that dream she held so closely to her heart!

glelsey: I have good memories of this scene. The song was one of those we would all keep singing over and over on school field trips (as you do) and it was really well composed too. Kind of a bittersweet moment in the film too - she knew exactly what she wanted, despite her living on land being an unrealistic ambition and she had no idea how to go about it. Probably something a lot of us ambitious people can relate to from time to time!

ace2000: Part of Your World is definitely one of my favorite Disney songs, period. My favorite lines are probably, (I know, typical) "Bet you on land/ they understand/ Bet you they don't/ reprimand their daughters". But my favorite part musically is when she says, "When's it my turn" and, on the word "turn", these deep brass instruments come in in the background and play progressively lower notes as Ariel's voice rises. I get chills all over.

Fire_Proof: I love the song and I love seeing all of the stuff that she has collected.

FlightofFantasy: So tough! But I'd have to say Part of Your World, Main Titles, Under the Sea and Poor Unfortunate Souls.



In a 3rd Place, we have the scene where Ariel and Eric are in a beautiful lagoon and Sebastian tries to get Eric to kiss Ariel with a beautiful song, but just as the kiss seems to happen, Flotsam & Jetsam sabotage the mood completly.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

NCISLuverjk93: I just really adore this song/scene. <3
Next would probably be when Ariel saves Eric/Part of Your World reprise and the Happy Ending.

Siren-Lamia: I absolutely love this scene, it is utterly adorable. I also love "Max and Prince Eric Finds Princess Ariel."

onlyvividcolor: I just had to go with this scene! I really love Sebastian's character and how much he is willing to do for Ariel so she can be happy, even if it takes making an orchestra right on the spot to set the mood. I love the visuals in the scene a lot, and even more so kiss the girl is my favorite song from the little mermaid. I also love, "Scuttle, the-know-it all." Scuttle is hilarious and that scene was probably the scene that had me laughing the most during the whole movie. (As you can tell, The Little Mermaid sidekicks are my favorite parts of the movie. They were all so fun and joyous, and willing to go through so much for Ariel.) :)

Nojida: This scene is amazing as well as the song! ^^

earthwoman65: I haven't seen this movie since my daughter was 3 and she is 12 now. The only reason I picked Kiss the Girl is because when we see a commercial for it, she starts singing the song.

JeffFisch: Kiss The Girl ... what can I say ... I'm a sucker for that song!!

Tunder2510: Kiss the girl part. Catchy song and pretty animation. What's not to like? :D

Laisalves8: Great song. Great scene.

usernameinvalid: Definitely Kiss the Girl and next would be Sebastian's Concert/Daughters of Triton/A Missing Princess.

doodllecake: Cute romantic scene.

msbass: Even though I love the ending, I gotta say that this is my favourite scene out of the whole movie. The Little Mermaid is probably one of my most favourite Disney Movies of all time!



In the 4th place we have the scene where Ariel is at the Sea Witch's home and Ursula comforts Ariel and explains that she can grant Ariel's wish to be human for three days, but she must give Eric the kiss of true love before the sunset on the third day, or she belongs to her. It''s a great scene with magnificent animation and one of the best songs in the movie, Poor Unfortunate Souls! Also, Ursula is my favorite character in the movie, so I'm very happy that this scene made the Top 5. She is bigger than life, she has a great voice actress in Pat Carroll. Carroll really gave her life along with the great Disney Animators.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

324anna: It's a very intense scene and the song is amazing.

cruella: I love this song. 💘

Moon_Blossom: I love villain songs and Ursula is one my favourite Disney villains. The visuals in this scene are also great.

MissAlison: Easily the best song of the movie, the most essential and integrated with the story. It's an irresistible song of seduction building up to a fabulous crescendo and glorious finale.

It's also the only time anyone or anything on screen competes on par with Ariel's art and animation. Ursula and underwater Ariel are a double whammy punch of expressive animated visual luxury! They don't need hordes of cute animals or luscious backgrounds to pump up the visual appeal, they easily carry the scene by themselves.

JungleQueen13: I know it doesn't show the best of Ariel, but this scene is just so well done that I can't help but love it! It's so intense and captivating.

ImaScrubbyScrub: Haven't watched it in so long, but this is a scene I won't forget.

chesire: Ultimate favorite. Love the song, love Ursula, love the whole scene. :)

RainSoul: This whole scene is just so intense and Ursula is one of the best Disney villains ever (Scar number 1). Love it, its awesome. ^.^

Stelena-Finchel: It was so hard to pick!!
It was a toss up between this one, Under the Sea and Kiss the Girl!
I just love this song/scene though, Ursula is definitely one of my favourite villians!

Evera: Just a big fan of Ursula.

KotokoAihara: This part of the movie is just amazing!

Robin_Love: One of the best moments in any movie is when you get to see the scene of the villain. It's also one of the most important scenes and this one was probably the first time it was just the villain singing.



Rounding off the Top 5, is another song from the movie, Under the Sea. The song that gave the movie one of it's two Oscar wins. Also, this scene is great in the animation department. Visually stunning and a great song, what more could the Disney Fans ask for?

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

nmdis: Love it ♥

yamishadow2001: Under the sea! Under the sea darling its better down where it's wetter take it from me!

Aang_Lite: Sebastian makes every scene better!

youandicollide: I still remember the song from my childhood, ha.

    
valleyer: This scene is very jovious. Love it.

mia444: There's so many to choose from!!! I had to go with this one :)

DW_girl: Love this song... Sebastian is pretty cool!

lililc: It seems is not so popular, but i really like Under the Sea

Night_Hunter: This is my fave. I like it because I love the song "Under the sea." :D

Primeysgirl: I just adore the part where they sing Under the Sea!! It is one of my favorite songs, my other favorite is Part of Your World.

deathding: What else would I pick? The Under The Sea song is one of my favorite scenes in any movie ever. :D



The 6th place goes to the scene where Ariel has rescued Prince Eric from the storm and lies on the beach and sings the Reprise of Part of Your World to him. It's an amazing scene, especially the part where Ariel sings on the rock and the wave comes crashing up behind her.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

tiffany88: I really love this scene <3 the animation and the colors are great! I also love ★ Ariel’s Secret Grotto/Part of Your World ★ , and the dinner scene :)

3xZ: Part of Your World reprise, yay!

uploaded900: As a kid the reprise was my favorite part.

carrieicecream: I cry everytime <3

WinterFirefly: Don't know why I absolutely love this part... but maybe it's just because I saw how Ariel was willing to give up everything to be part of Eric's world.

Skilene17: Only 5%? Ah well. To be honest I don't remember much about The Little Mermaid, I haven't seen it in years. However I do remember enjoying the scene where Eric is saved.

hldmlekl: Honestly, I am a Disney addict (although my brother is a bigger one) I LOVE every movie. My vote may range within only 5%, but it is what I like; and that is not something I would lie about. This is one of my brothers' and my own favorite movies. This question selection was greatly chosen, and couldn't have been any more interesting than many others.
P.S.
Did you know that on the original 'Little Mermaid' cover, there is a unusual picture as a building, and it was actually an error in drawing. (I own it.)

DisneyPrincess3: I love this scene so much! It's so beautiful and romantic! The feels this scene gives me is sensational! A fantastic scene!

ntmfan0707: Or Ariel's Secret Grotto/Part of Your World. This scene is just animated so beautifully and I love the reprise. You can easily sense Ariel's want and determination to be on land with Eric.

jeangreyforever: This is my favorite movie so it's tough to just pick one scene, but probably where Ariel first sings to Eric and falls for him.

rzenteno: i always love this beautiful scene from my favorite childhood movie.

audreygrace412: Tough choice between all! This scene is very moving and mesmerizing to me though.

thetankmoment: I don't know why, but this scene always had a personal connection with me.



The 7th scene is my personal favorite scene in the movie. Ursula, as the human Vanessa is about to marry Prince Eric who is under her spell. Scuttle has gathered an army of sea animals and stall the wedding just in the nick of time! It's a very funny scene as the various animals attacks Vanessa! I can see this scene over 100 times and still find it enjoyable.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

PrueFever: My all-time favorite Disney Scene from ANY Disney Film is this one! I just love it SO much! Vanessa is so beautiful and I just love the way the animals attack her, I bet the animators had a lot of fun with this scene. A beautiful woman getting attacked like this :P But also, it's a very important scene in the movie as Ariel and Eric doesn't get to kiss in time and Ursula wins.

Zlyoung1: Probably the most dramatic scene in the movie.

tanyya: One of the moments I remember the most.

Mikey303: I remember this scene so vividly! I have also seen this scene on Youtube a lot! xD Ursula is great as Vanessa. It's such a funny scene!

puresummermagic: My favorite moment in the entire movie. The animals interrupting the wedding was pretty funny. XD



The final battle between Ariel, Eric and Ursula made it to the 8th place. The scene where Ursula rises up from the ocean depths, a 1000 times bigger than normal, is breathtaking in every sense of the word. Her laugh as she grows bigger and bigger, Ariel and Eric leaping from her crown and falls over a 100 meters before hitting the water, the thunderous storm that Ursula makes with the Trident, the waves in the sea and the whirlpool. Also, Ursula's death scene is pretty brutal, but an awesome moment as well!

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

Dkschris: This one is just pure awesomeness! I remember being scared of Ursula as a little boy xP

DisneyNissen: Ursula was just terrifying when she grew into this gigantic Sea Monster! Her evil laugh as she grew was just epic! And her death was awesome, one of my favourite Disney deaths along with Jafar.

Kitsune32: The final battle was pretty intense.

Vixie79: Ursula's death was always the coolest to me.

DRocker: Thrilling Scene.

FanNoOne111: I like this scene the most... Fairy tale fights are my Favorite... Though I hate Live Action Fights...



Just making the Top 10 is the scene where Prince Eric shows Ariel his kingdom. It's a very cute scene and the score is just a joy to listen to. I like this scene very much as it shows how excited Ariel is, finally to "be where the people are" and she gets to see 'em dancing, she gets a cool hat, flowers and bread. She even gets to be in control of the carriage, the funniest bit by far! I laugh out loud every time Ariel gets the horse to ride really fast! xD She's just enjoying it, having a good time and Eric is like "OH SH*T!" xD That is just great humor!

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

HarleySkywalker: It was so cute :3

Awinitarose: This scene/music always makes me feel happy, especially the dance part.

LauraLane: I love all the scenes but I have something special with Tour of the Kingdom. Ariel and Eric are perfect together ! :)

OnceUponASptmbr: I do flip-flop between this and ★ Poor Unfortunate Souls/The Deal/Payment ★, but there's just something incredibly enchanting about this scene... Ariel's personality shines through perfectly, and it's endearing to see how Eric is completely smitten by it 💑

lionkingartist: This has always been my favorite part of the movie as well as when Eric first meets Ariel. :)

rhythmicmagic: I love how bright and expressive Ariel is when she doesn't have a voice! It's my favorite thing about her!
    
Bumbl_ee: I really liked this scene! It was sweet to see Ariel and Eric spending time together <3



Rounding off the Top 10 is the Main Titles of the movie where the little fish that escaped from the ship, swims a long way to make it to the concert at King Triton's Palace. Along the way, it meets jellyfish, whales and finally merpeople. What's great about this scene is the music as it really draws you into the movie! The music is really beautiful.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

MalloMar: This is just so beautiful...that soundtrack.
I love this whole movie, but some other scenes I can't get enough of are- Ariel's Secret Grotto/Part of Your World, To the Surface/Fireworks/Falling in Love/Birthday, Eric is Saved/Part of Your World Reprise, Poor Unfortunate Souls, Tour of the Kingdom, Vanessa on the Beach and Happy Ending.

fiina: The music is so beautiful and the presentation of underwater world is amazing. It was really hard to choose as I love the whole movie so much.

euny: The score is breathtaking <333

dimitri_: The feels

Purple-Enderman: Soundtrack time :3
I love music and reading the names because…
some names are funny to read.

LovingLucy: I really liked the Main Titles!

fhghu: I always thought this was a gorgeous opening.



Just missing Top 10 is the scene where Ariel and Flounder visits Scuttle the seagull. Scuttle is a funny character and I love Buddy Hackett's voice for him! He thinks he know all about human stuff, but every time he gets it wrong xD It's a cute little scene.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:
    
twinklestar11: I just love Scuttle! He thinks he knows what all human things are called. He is a silly, crazy bird. I just laugh at him. But he is not just good at being silly but he warned Ariel that Vanessa was Ursula in disguise. Then he was a good bird. Anyway, I love this part of the "Know-It-All Scuttle!

pop3232: I like this part because it's just fun, and adds some humor to it :D

Eleni4ever: I always enjoyed watching The Little Mermaid because it was fun to "correct" Scuttle. I was a weird five-year-old. Anyway, I have several other favorite scenes from this movie, too.

annabeth2424: This part gives you a good laugh and I love how my little sister acted after she saw it.

Toteserin: Amazing poll :-) I think Scuttle is hilarious!



Landing right at the 12th Spot is the storm sequence where Eric and his crew faces a deadly storm. It's a great action scene, filled with thunder, rain, fire and explosions. It really gets your heart pumping! It also shows what a great character Eric is, as he doesn't hesitate to jump right back in the water and back on the burning ship to save his beloved dog, Max.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

PrincessAyeka12: This is too hard. The Little Mermaid is one of my favourite Disney Movies. But I will say that I like the underwater and surface scenes when Ariel is a mermaid because of the mermaid fantasy. I love watching her tail as she swims and I love watching her dive in and out of the water or even seeing her dropped in the water or tumbling down a whirlpool. It's just fascinating, seeing a half human with super human abilities experience ocean related dangers that a normal human wouldn't survive. However until Flotsam and Jetsam make an appearance in the Lagoon, I'm not a big fan of Ariel's mute human scenes. I think in this movie I prefer the mystery and action scenes as well as the fantasy/romance but only when Ariel has a voice or but sometimes doesn't speak because she's hiding from him, Eric (Birthday scene). I'm not fond of the father daughter scenes. But I love the ending transformation/wedding "give his daughter away" scene. It's very touching. Love Triton trying to coax Sebastian in giving him details about who Ariel's in love with. His voice is creepy, but it's so funny! And of course I love all Ursula, Eels, Grimsby, Sebastian, Scuttle, Ariel's sisters and Charlotta scenes.

Dr.Evan: Dramatic and beautiful... Storm at Sea!!

Hanna467: I like this scene :D

Gotrense: Oh my heart aches from this scene!

Canada24: Not a Little Mermaid fan.. But I remember this scene being cool.



Landing at the 13th Place is the scene where Max and Prince Eric finds Ariel. This is also one of my favorite scenes in the movie. The score is just beautiful here. Also Max is just so cute, he just knows Ariel is the girl that saved his master. I really like the animation of Ariel in this scene as well :3

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

LupinPrincess: I love Max in this scene and their interaction... I get goosebumps sometimes.

SlinaPink: My favorite part forever <3

RiddlersSphinx: It is such a cute scene, the interaction is great, the animation is great, it´s just all great :D



The 14th place goes to the scene where Ariel goes to the surface after seeing it in her grotto. This is another great scene. I love it when she swims from the bottom of the ocean to the surface and when her head comes out of the water.The look on her face as she sees the fireworks <3! Also the part where she dives in and out of the water as she swims toward the ship.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

simovska: She saw him for the first time and she's in love. This scene with fireworks was like magic and dreams are come true. And it was Eric's birthday. The best birthday ever.

Beastlysoul25: It shows more of Ariel's fascination.



Taking the 15th Spot on my list is the scene where Ariel finds out that she has legs. Human legs! Once again, the look on her face as she lifts her leg out of the water and wiggeling her toes is just the cutest! Sebastian's breakdown is great as well, 'cos when he see how sad Ariel gets, when says she could go home with all the normal fish, he decides to stick by her side and help her <3!

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

No Comments.



The 16th Spot is taken by a scene at the beginning of the movie. King Triton has arranged a concert for the merpeople and he's really looking foward to it. Sadly for him, Sebastian, his other daugthers and the Merpeople, a certain little mermaid is missing!

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

Meadow4Robin: Lovely scene :)

DaniMF: I love this part.

eh091488: I like this part and the one with Part of Your World.



The scene where we first sees the little mermaid Ariel, takes the number 17 Spot. I remember being completely mesmerized by her as her head poped up on the screen and her beautiful red hair. It's a great scene and very action-packed as well with the shark chase!

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

DarkGirI27: I also liked the Kiss the Girl scene, and when she's her legs for the first time :P



Oh no, it's the crazy cook at Eric's palace! Voted in at the 18th place is the scene where Chef Louis is preparing a feast for Prince Eric, Sir Grimsby and Princess Ariel. But suddenly Sebastian gets in the way and suddenly caos is everywhere in the palace kitchen.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

ImAnEasel: I've always chosen comedy over romance.

brauer83: C'mon, this was funny!

xXxAngelessxXx: Hehe, this was cute.



This is both a scary and a cute little scene. First it's scary because we see Ursula watching Ariel in her crystal ball and we see her "graden" of Polyps. Merpeople who has been transformed because they couldn't pay for the service Ursula gave them. And then there's a cute scene with Ariel, her sisters and her father.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

Bellatrix666: I was very young the last time I watched it, so I am not sure.

FanFic_Girl_26: I like this part the best mainly because of this line:

Ursula: King Triton’s headstrong, love-sick girl would make a charming addition to my little garden… (laughs evilly)

I love that line... :) Very awesome, as well as very inspiring (especially for a fanfiction writer like me), too.. :)



Just making the Top 20 is a very cute little scene. The scene where Ariel has been giving a lovely pink dinner dress and is going to have dinner with Eric and Sir Grimsby. But the information Scuttle has given her about dinglehoppers and snarfblats are proven to be wrong in a very unlucky way for the mer-princess. xD

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

luckyPink: I really love this movie especially this scene becz it made me burst out laughing!! :P :D

karaouq: It's hard to narrow it down, there are so many good scenes.



Voted in at the 21st place, is a scene that holds much drama! Ursula trades Ariel's freedom for the King of the Seas, making Ursula the Queen of the Seas. But Eric sets out to save the girl of his dreams. I love the moment when Ariel twarts Ursula's plan where she pulls the Sea Witch's hair, killing Flotsam and Jetsam in the process! Girl Power!

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

MegaraRider: I lost her once. I'm not gonna lose her again.



The very opening of the movie takes the 22th place in my poll. It's an okay scene and Fathoms Below is an okay song, but there are other scenes there are better than this scene.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

loveanu: Love it.

sowmiya20: Love this... Childhood memories :)



This scene didn't get so many votes, maybe it's because of the fight between Ariel and King Triton? I think it's an okay little scene, showing how stubborn both Ariel and her father are.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

LoveSterlingB: I love this movie so much ♥

IndieGerman: I found this to be intriguing for some reason. :)



The 24th place goes to the scene where King Triton has summoned Sebastian and asks him if he has noticed anything different about Ariel. I like this little scene as the score goes up and down between the scenes of Triton and Sebastian.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

qzmaster591: He's a father here. A confused, out-of-touch with her daughter, but nevertheless a father believing he's doing the best for his beloved little daughter, and being even more confused when he starts to realize that his little princess isn't going to be little for much longer...



My favorite number 25 has a great scene in it as well. It's the scene where Ariel saves Sebastian from getting eaten by Sir Grimsby and where we see how close Prince Eric is with his dog, Max. Also, the scene where Sebastian explains to Ariel what she has to do to make Eric fall in love with her.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

The next scene is a scene where Ursula decides to take matters into her own tentacles, by transforming herself into the beautiful Vanessa. She then uses Ariel's voice to hypnotize Eric just before he could announce his true feelings to her. I loved it when Ursula became a beautiful young woman! The scene where she walks out of the fog, wind blowing in her hair, her cape and her dress. Just beautiful!

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

random_camo: This was always my favorite scene! Vanessa is just so mysterious.

Disney-Dust: This is how I always envision my dream girl. On a beach at night with the wind blowing through her hair, like she just...appears through the mist. I never did forget this scene, or that otherworldly voice of hers and the way it hypnotized Eric, can you blame him? Thanks Disney, for planting this in my head when I was little! Who could resist that stunningly voice and chilling appearance that Vanessa has?



The scene that holds the 27th spot is Ursula's Introduction. It's a creepy little scene as we first see her eyes only as she's in the dark, we don't know what she looks like. She then eats a terrified little shrimp and then she comes out and we see that she's a squid. I was always very facinated by her character design.

Comments from the Fanpoppers:

No comments.



Up next is the scene where Flotsam and Jetsam suggests to the crying Ariel that Ursula can help her. Again, it's a creepy scene as Flotsam and Jetsam are really scary. One thing I do love about this scene is the line "Why don't you go tell my father? You're good at that!" that Ariel says to Sebastian. It's so true and very teenage-girlish.

The scene at the 29th place is also one of my personal favorites as it features Ursula as Vanessa. One the third and final day, Eric and Vanessa are announced to be wed by sunset, leaving poor Ariel heartbroken. I think it's a great scene, especially the part where Scuttle tells her the news, she runs down the stairs, only to find Eric with Vanessa. The score is remarkable as well here, as it goes from happy to a very suspenseful tone. Also, I just think Vanessa is extremely sexy! Wish she had more screentime. :)

Comments from the Fans:

DisneyEra: Could you imagine if they had used Vanessa's character design for Ariel she'd be the best looking Disney Princess by far, but I'll admit Vanessa works great as a villain counterpart.



The second most disliked scene according to my poll, is the scene where Eric and Vanessa leaves to be married at sea, leaving poor Ariel behind. Sad as it is, it's also quite exciting as Scuttle discovers Vanessa's true identity. He hurries back and tell the news to Ariel, Sebastian and Flounder. They have to work fast as the time is getting close to sunset. Ariel and Flounder hurries after the Wedding Boat, Sebastian goes to find the Sea King and Scuttle gathers an army of sea creatures who are ready to help Ariel against the evil Vanessa.

Comments from the Fans:

PeacefulCritic: Love it! :D
    
PureHeroine: Love Vanessa ♥



The final scene from the movie that hasn't got a single vote is the scene where King Triton destroys Ariel's treasures in her secret grotto. Over 590 Fans and not one has voted this scene as their favorite. I can understand it, as the scene is quite hard to watch. Even I was afraid of this scene as a kid. Triton crosses the line here, I think.

So, there we have it! Do you agree with this list? Did your favorite scene make the Top 10?

I hope you enjoyed reading this list, as I enjoyed making it. Like I said many times before, Mermaid is my all-time favorite movie, Disney or not! It will always hold a special place in my heart! It will never die! I wore the VHS out, when I was little, I rented the Limited Edition DVD from Blockbuster over 40 times, untill I finally got my own version of the movie from Amazon. When the Two-Disc Platinum Edition came out, I got it right away! Today, I can't see the movie on my Playstation 3 anymore, as it has scratches from being watched so much! And now I have the Diamond Edition on Blu-Ray, thank god! Anyway, enough rambling from me ;)
