One of my all time favorite Disney movies. Will probably make my list because of nostalgic reasons (one of the few that will make it because of that). It's also just a great, laid-back ride through the charming education of a future legend by a very intriguiging version of the legendary Merlin. It's an enrichening film experience for kids and I think, also for adults.
@Daniel:
Puss in Boots is quite underrated actually. It's not like it's going to make my list or anything, but it has a couple of fun and imaginative movies. I randomly saw it at the theater on a hangover day and it kept me cuffed. It has a few very nicely animated, dream-like bits.
The Little Mermaid is simply a good Disney movie. It's not a particular favorite of mine, but it's definitely worth watching. It's also responsible for the Disney Renaissance.
Hercules is not for everyone, but I happen to think it's an energetic blast of a film that cleverly comments on the "celebrity status" some people have today, but in a jacket of Americanized Greek mythology. Again, probably not going to make my list, but definitely a film that's worthy of being seen.
The
Shrek movies were pretty innovating and set a whole different, new standard for mainstream animation films. I like the first two quite a bit.
The Nightmare Before Christmas is simply a great film. I'm quite surprised that you don't like it.
