I imagine a lot of fans of Disney Infinity would have at least some love for Disney itself. So what are your favorite films (Whether animated or live action)? You can list as many as you want. Even if it's only one single movie!

My Favs:
Pinocchio
Fantasia
Dumbo
Bambi
Song of the South
Fun and Fancy Free
The Adventures of Ichabod and Mr. Toad
Cinderella
Peter Pan
Lady and the Tramp
Sleeping Beauty
The Jungle Book
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
The Rescuers
The Black Cauldron
Beauty and the Beast
Aladdin
The Lion King
The hunchback of Notre Dame
Lilo and Stitch
The Princess and the Frog
The Nightmare Before Christmas
Pirates of the Caribbean: Curse of the Black Pearl
The Black hole

It's actually really interesting to me that there are some people here that aren't necessarily huge fans of Disney, and they're here because of the gaming aspect. I didn't expect that.

While I could list a whole ton of favorites, I'll narrow it down to those that have influenced me more heavily.

Beauty and the Beast - the reason I became interested in animation as a career. The bonus features on the DVD were what first connected art with Disney movies for me.

Cinderella - this movie is quintessential "Disney" to me. This extends to all the films from the 50s... Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, Lady and the Tramp. Definitely a triumphant period in Disney animation.

Pinocchio - From an objective standpoint, possibly Walt Disney's greatest "masterpiece".

Tangled - While I had always been dead set on hand drawn animation, this movie fully convinced me that great things could be done in CG as well. I've now been learning CG for the past two to three years, and I absolutely love it.

Pirates - Well, because who doesn't love Pirates?

I also have to mention Paperman. I was lucky enough to see it at WDAS the week it was completed. We were told we were the first audience outside the studio. It's been extremely inspiring to me, and I hope to see the amazing hybrid technique used in a feature film soon.

I didn't think about animated shorts. But now that the subject has been brought up, I would definitely add Paperman and The Ballad of Nessie to my list. Both shorts are beautifully designed and animated, and have some great expressive characters.

Also, I just watched Winnie the Pooh (The 2011 film) for the first time today. That had to be the funniest animated movie I've ever seen. XD

I like all of them I've seen, which is most of the animated ones except Fun and Fancy Free, Three Cabelleros, and a few others.

You gotta see Fun and Fancy Free! It was of my favorites growing up. Bongo is fun, but Mickey and the Beanstalk is fantastic! You're missing out!
