My top 10 Disney films Part 1

Hello again!!

I'm going to talk about my favourite Disney movies, as I couldn't choose which ones of my choices I actually thought was my all time favourite. I have decided to simply put them in order of Year of release starting with the newest. I hope you like the ones I have chosen and please feel free to tell me your favourites. :)


Alice and Wonderland 2010
So I know I have had rants about pointless Sequels, but this isn't one of them. Alice and Wonderland is the second of two books. So it has a right to be made. And frankly I think Tim Burton did an amazing job, it was sinister, magical and really caught the essence of what the world of Wonderland should be like. Not to mention the amazing casting.With the likes of Johnny Depp, Stephen Fry, Ann Hatherway, Alan Rickman, Helena Bonham Carter and Barbara Windsor. All in all I love this movie with the mixture of live action and animation. It is a great family movie and if you haven't had chance to watch it I really would consider giving it a go, although not in 3D as I feel that it wasn't really needed, without it is way better.

Howl's moving castle 2004
I know what you are thinking it isn't Disney but in fact it was released in America  by Disney as an English dubbed, done by Pixar's Peter Docter. After it had been released in Japan and Disney released it in other countries the year after. Although I do like the Japanese version and really don't have a problem with watching subtitles. The English dub is still just as good if not a little bit better as you don't have to pay attention to the subtitles and can watch the amazing animation that the Japanese did, it really is a beautifully done film. For those of you that have never seen either version here is a brief description, A young women (Sophie ) is cursed by a witch into an old body. She sets out to seek a fortune and comes across a weird moving castle run by a magician ( Hauru) who may just be able to break the curse and turn her to her true form. I encourage people to give this film a go. :)

Pocahontas 1995
Before I go on about why I like this film, I do have one problem with it. The only thing that does annoy me about this movie is John Smith is voice acted by Mel Gibson who of course is American and doesn't even put on a English accent he stays America, and John Smith is English and should there for have an English accent. Considering that in this film America hasn't even really been discovered yet. Well not enough for them to bring an American back to England to go all the way back there. So yes that was bad casting by Disney if they couldn't find anyone to even put on an English accent. But apart from that the film is brilliant, it has catchy songs that get stuck in your head. The animation and the way it is put together is really good. It has comedic characters that end up becoming favourites. With both adults and kids, making it a film to enjoy with the whole family. If you haven't seen this film and you have kids, give it a go I guarantee that you and your children will enjoy watching it together.

Goofy Movie 1995
This film is classic Disney. Everyone should know who Goofy is and if you don't you need to see this movie. It has catchy tunes by Tevin Campbell who was all ready a big RNB singer before he did this. And although he probably hates it is most well known for the songs from this movie. It is funny and slapstick Disney with everything Goofy tries to do going wrong some how which makes you love the character even more. For those of you that don't know the movie, it is about Goofy and his son Max. Max is in high school and in love with a Girl, when he tries to impress her it goes wrong and ends up in the Headmasters office. Making Goofy think he is going to end up a delinquent, and resulting in him taking Max on a fishing trip. But Max has  made plans with the love of his life and lies as to why he can't be there. I'm not going to say anymore as it will spoil it for those of you that haven't seen it but it really is worth a watch if  you like Disney and catchy, up beat tunes.


Lion King 1994
Now everyone will have at least heard of the Lion King it was a big step for Disney, with is been the first of there films to do something that no other Disney has ever done. ( i'm not going to say just in case some of you haven't watched it.) Also it was one of the first to actually bring in the animal they are drawing into the studio so they could get the real movements into there drawings. ( Yes they actually had a fully grown lion and a cub in there studio) and credit to them. They drawings are pretty believable and because of that make it a very enjoyable and pretty film to watch. It has good music from Hanz Zimmer and Elton John. Which really gets you into the movie and lots of funny parts to keep you laughing. If you haven't seen this movie seriously watch it you won't regret it.

These are my first 5 I will be carrying on as soon as I can. Hope you enjoyed them and please comment and watch this space. :)
