MODERATORS
Maybe an unpopular opinion but I really liked rogue one.
However Tron legacy is also really good.
Rogue One is the only new Star Wars film I've liked
Rogue One is great, but can't say it's my favorite Disney movie.
Robin Hood
That's my favourite too! Whose your favourite character in it? Mine is Friar Tuck or Lady Cluck
Both of the same as you, as well as Allan-a-Dale, as he is voiced by a famous Norwegian fun folk singer in our dub of it, and that was the nicest part to see again once Disney Plus came.
From this period in Disney I'm more 101, Aristocrats, or Fox and the hound. Robin Hood was only ok for me.
Never really enjoyed 101 or Aristocats, but I still remember I got Robin Hood a Christmas morning with great fondness. My brother got Bambie.
Realised decades later that was a great way for our parents to get us out of the way for a few hours, haha.
It’s a tie between Atlantis the lost empire and treasure planet .
Somehow I suspect you also like The Mandalorian.
The Sword in the Stone.
Just watched this today. Great film.
Overall probably Lion King but of the newer ones I really like Encanto
Tron.
Lion King for me.
First off, ACAB, even fictional ones, but definitely a tie between Zootopia 1 and 2.
There is more than twice as much rule 34 of Judy Hopps than there is of Elastigirl.
I'm not sure what to make of that but thought I'd share it anyway.
A New Hope
The Nightmare Before Christmas, followed by Hocus Pocus. They're the only two I'll watch repeatedly.
Either Brave, because it's about a red-headed Scottish archer and that's all kinds of awesome, or Frozen, because it's not about the love between a man and a woman triumphing over all, it's the love and trust of the sisters. Also, all the songs are bangers.
Also depends on era. Classic, I'll go for Alice in Wonderland. Between Classic and Golden, whatever that's called, it's Robin Hood (like the 70s and early 80s, but not quite classic, like mid-tier Disney). Golden, it's Beauty and the Beast, but I enjoyed Aladdin and Lion King more. Modern, see above.
Disney hasn't been the best at animation in a while, though. For a "Disney-like" Japanese film that beats anything I've seen from Disney, Wolf Children — it's about a single mother raising two special-needs children. The special needs can be anything you want to self-insert, but for the film it's that they're werewolves. It's meant to be an analogy to whatever you want, though. Anyway, her kids are too much trouble for the city life, so they move out to the country to discover what they all want out of life. One of the most amazing films I've ever seen, and it happens to be animated. It's also fully translated to English (minus the songs, which are more hummed than sang (like some Enya songs are) so it doesn't really matter that they're still in Japanese, it's more the sound that matters than the actual words. Like seriously, watch this film, or better yet, watch it with your mother (or a mother, like if you have a sister or cousin who is a mother, or if your spouse is a mother).

Tou story 2 is pretty great. Beauty and the beast is a nearly perfect movie. Bolt is really good as well... I'm going to have to say The Incredibles is my favorite.
IDK it's hard to have a favorite Disney movie especially if we include Touchstone pictures... Then Starship Troopers
Hunchback of Notre Dame
Probably Lilo and Stitch or Hercules, second
I really liked Elemental. It's hard to really pick one because there are so many, but of the relatively recent ones it was my favorite. I liked that it was a (mostly) pure romance movie. There wasn't really an evil villain. The problem they're solving is mostly secondary. It also has a nice message. Cool world building too.
Though it's odd to me that the movie frames it as this is the first time this happened when that little tree dude flirts with the fire girl the whole time.
Lilo and Stich. Art direction, acting, and writing are all top notch. But the best part was all the executives missing the point of the movie until reading the reviews and then firing everyone involved with making it.
Wreck It Ralph.
Aliens. Does that count?
The Emperor's New Groove is pure gold.
