Treasure Island is NOT an animated film. :blush:

How could I not vote for Peter Pan? I want to keep visiting Neverland so I am not going to upset Peter in any way.

I'd have to go with Peter Pan too - I have always loved it. And the fact that I got to play Mr. Smee (yes, I'm a girl) in my 6th grade play always endeared me to it! Alice in Wonderland would be a close second.

Sleeping Beauty is my all time favorite Disney movie. Alice would be a close second though.

Sleeping Beauty is my all time favorite Disney movie. Alice would be a close second though.

Sleeping Beauty is my favorite too! Can't go wrong with Marc Davis and Eyvind Earle. Awesome combination...

I would've picked Peter Pan as my other favorite. I love the feeling that you're flying right along with the characters! Tinker Bell is obviously one of my all time favorite characters.

Sleeping Beauty is my all-time favorite ever since I was a little girl. Lady & the Tramp is a close second because I also watched it around the same time I saw Sleeping Beauty for the first time and it just reminds me of my old dog because I chose the name Lady for her.

This one is such a hard one to pick because a lot of these classics that Walt had a lot of influence on were just fantastic.

Pinocchio was my very first. Sleeping Beauty was so well crafted that I never appreciated at a young age but like a good wine, it gets better as it gets older (or as I got older!).


But in the end, it's the tale about not growing up that wins me over more often than not. The animation, characters... Peter Pan is just so much fun. That's my pick.

I can't pick just one. I like them all equally.

I voted for Peter Pan but it is closely followed by Dumbo.

I picked Alice in Wonderland with Peter Pan a close second.

Fantasia, once and for all time.

It was tough for me to choose between the two (Pinocchio and Fantasia) In the end though, there is a certain warmth that I get watching Pinocchio, something beyond the story, beyond the music, especially the the first half. I have never been able to put my finger on it, it's just something truly *magical*. The first time I watched it with my son, I saw a twinkle in his eyes when he watched it, I got a lump in my throat.
