So, we're all in agreement about Aladdin being the best animated Disney Movie, right?

I prefer Disney's stuff from the late 40s/50s to be honest. Sleeping Beauty, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan (minus the depiction of natives).
Kinda wonder why New Groove flopped so hard considering it's so universally beloved these days. It even got positive reviews at the time. I know about its extremely troubled production history as Kingdom of the Sun, but that shouldn't have affected how it did in the box office.My man.
lilo and stitch is my 2nd favourite movie of all time so no. moana, zootopia,tangled are all ones id rate higher than aladdin to.
Me too, It's the 'golden age' of their shows to me. They were the old classics when I was growing up, and the hand animation is pretty amazing and full of character.
My man.
It had no right being as good as it did. The entire thing is just a joy to watch.
At the risk of playing into the stereotype that all autistic people love Sherlock Holmes, gonna have to give it to The Great Mouse Detective.
No idea. Maybe people just didn't get or know they wanted a pure comedy Disney animated movie?
It's the only movie my dad was ever actually excited to go see in a theater with us growing up. One of the only ones he ever did see in a theater with us. And for me I feel like it only got better every time I watched it. We were worried when it came out that all the funny stuff was in the trailers, but that definitely wasn't the case.
Finally, an enlightened soul. It is too beautiful for words.
And it has Merryweather, the biggest badass to ever grace a Disney film.
90s Revival Era is so good you could say this about most of its movies. But no its not Aladdin. Despite its flaws, Hunchback is easily the best movie. Adapts the book while respecting its theatrical history like the 1939 adaptation, has some of the most striking visuals, and even the somewhat shoehorned love story works flawlessly because its basically just treat women with respect and like they are people, which is highly unique for Disney.
No.
Nah. And I say this as one of the biggest Peabo Bryson fans on earth.

Its Hercules, but I love Aladdin also.
Its the best Superman movie folks! And also a great Rocky movie.
The things is, most of the 90's era is fucking ace in some way or another.
Evind Earle's backgrounds in this movie are out of this fuycking world.Finally, an enlightened soul. It is too beautiful for words.

They even look more beautiful in modern resolutions.
Hard times for movies like this and El Dorado (best Dreamworks movie BTW) when they released, the audience was in the middle of viewing idiocy between 3d is god im not going to watch anymore 2d, now they are cult classics

I think Beauty and the Beast, Lion King and Aladdin are all peak conventional animation Disney, I wouldn't really rank them
But the classic older films like Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty are in some ways technically more impressive, particularly given technology (or lack thereof) at the time

why didn't aladdin just give the lamp to jasmine at the end to get three more wishes? be a prince and set the genie free.
also, what did genie actually do when he made aladdin a prince? did he create an entire country? did jafar kill them all or just make aladdin's clothes disappear?

That movie is kind of mediocre when you think about it. All the characters either suck or are annoying, the music isn't as good as The Lion King or Beauty & The Beast, and all the current(at the time) references really date it.
Robin Hood is pretty tough to beat!
Sidebar, had never heard the name Wolfgang Reitherman before.. and this dude basically directed all the classic Disney movies?! A shame he hasn't received the name legacy that he deserves.

The catalog is so stacked it's impossible for me. Beauty and the Beast is the best of the renaissance films for me though. That soundtrack..
Aladdin was my favorite of the classic 2D Disney animated films as a kid for sure. As an adult, I think I'd give the edge to Emperor's New Groove or Lilo & Stitch. New Groove is the one I've rewatched the most by far.
If we're including 3D Disney films, then Tangled is way, way up there, and if we're including Pixar films...where would I even begin? Probably Incredibles or Ratatouille.

Good taste. These classics deserve to be re-watched by more people. Too many dismiss them out of hand for some reason (bc theyre 'old').
Lilo and Stitch might well be the best of all time; even so, for the 90s lineup I would put Beauty and the Beast over Aladdin at this point.
