 | The Lion King (Disney Special Platinum Edition)
Buy used from: $19.95 A great movie all around. A killer soundtrack, great color and animation, and a great story. A must have!
|
 | Charlotte's Web (Full Screen Edition)
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $2.74 I loved reading this book as a child and this movie brought my favorite characters to life.
|
 | Shrek (Two-Disc Special Edition)
Buy used from: $5.48 Putting animated movies into the adult realm with witty quips and laugh out loud moments, this one is good for the whole family, young or old. Spectacular!
|
 | The Ice Age Collection (Ice Age/ Ice Age: The Meltdown) - Full Screen Editions
Buy new: $22.99 / Used from: $19.99 Both of the Ice Age movies (with a third hitting theaters in 2009) have been great. The voices behind the characters were chosen well. Silly moments and great animation tie this up in a neat little package.
|
 | Sleeping Beauty (Two-Disc Platinum Edition)
Buy new: $18.99 / Used from: $8.75 Even if you don't like the story (which is timeless) the animation and color are superb. I like to pause throughout this movie (especially the forest scenes) to admire the artwork. The music is also quite lovely. Great to watch with your kids.
|
 | 101 Dalmatians (Two-Disc Platinum Edition)
Buy new: $18.49 / Used from: $9.99 Another classic Disney moment, the introduction to the movie is one of the best parts. Anything that Wolfgang Reitherman put his hands on, in my opinion, is pure gold. A great tale and cute puppies.
|
 | FernGully: The Last Rainforest (Family Fun Edition)
Buy new: $9.49 / Used from: $6.60 The original Ferngully, the story is so-so but the music and color are beautiful and unique.
|
 | Anastasia (Family Fun Edition w/Bartok the Magnificent)
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $8.79 I loved this movie. Meg Ryan did a great job voicing Anastasia. This movie was very unique (not many animated movies set in Russia that are mainstream). Another soundtrack masterpiece.
|
 | All Dogs Go to Heaven
Buy new: $12.49 / Used from: $2.00 As a kid I loved this movie. Silly and fun, a great movie.
|
 | Mary Poppins (40th Anniversary Edition)
Buy used from: $10.36 Although only partially animated, Mary Poppins is one of the best movies of all time. Songs that will never grow old, and fun moments that a kid can relive again and again. I still do.
|
 | The Sword in the Stone (45th Anniversary Special Edition)
Buy new: $18.99 / Used from: $13.99 The sword in the stone, another Wolfgang film, is one of my favorite Disney movies ever. The 45th anniversary edition really disappointed me, though. I had the original dvd, no special edition and I bought this one thinking that there were going to be a lot of extras and special changes. There weren't. If you have the original, don't waste money on the "special edition"
|
 | An American Tail
Buy new: $8.99 / Used from: $5.98 Tell me that you still aren't singing "Somewhere out there..." cute, different, and fun. Love it.
|

|
 | Over the Hedge (Full Screen Edition)
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $2.04 I liked this movie. Not a favorite, but definitely worth watching. Maybe rent it before you buy it. A nice little Saturday night movie.
|
 | Madagascar (Widescreen Edition)
Buy new: $10.99 / Used from: $4.25 Hilarious! The voices are perfect! Witty and fun, I am glad they made a second one! (Coming to theaters in November 2008)
|
 | Alice in Wonderland (Masterpiece Edition)
Buy used from: $12.99 The older Disney movies tend to be my favorites. A classic story with great characters and songs you can't forget.

|
 | Peter Pan (2-Disc Platinum Edition)

|
 | Aladdin (Disney Special Platinum Edition)
Buy used from: $8.49 The best of the three movies in this trilogy, the first one has animation that was amazing for the time when it was first released. The color is extraordinary. Who could forget Robin Williams as the outrageous Genie? Perfection!
|
 | Lady and the Tramp (50th Anniversary Edition)
Buy used from: $17.99 My all time favorite. A super story with awesome animation.
|
 | The Prince of Egypt
Buy new: $10.49 / Used from: $4.62 I absolutely loved this movie. The soundtrack is phenomenal! It takes liberties with the original story, but it is close enough that kids get the point. Another must-have!
|
 | Finding Nemo (Two-Disc Collector's Edition)
Buy new: $19.99 / Used from: $7.45 This needs no explanation. Totally unique and many tried to copy it. Animation is awesome!!!
|

|

Buy new: $15.49 / Used from: $6.99 This was the version of that legend that I grew up knowing (and loving). Classic!
|
 | The Black Cauldron (Disney Gold Classic Collection)
Buy used from: $8.95 Based on Lloyd Alexander's "The Chronicles of Prydain," I fell in love with this movie. We read the stories in 4th grade and I saw the movie shortly thereafter. Great if you liked the books!
|
 | The Land Before Time (Anniversary Edition)

|
 | Mulan (Special Edition)
Buy new: $14.99 / Used from: $9.71 I really enjoyed this movie. Very different than other Disney movies, it was set in imperial China. Very great addition to any collection!
|
 | Bambi (2-Disc Special Platinum Edition)
Buy used from: $10.30 The classic tale of little Bambi. Growing up, making friends, and dealing with death makes for a mixed review as far as watching this with your child. As a kid I found the part about Bambi's mom really scary and sad. Be prepared for that. A great movie though!
|
 | The Brave Little Toaster
Buy new: $15.99 / Used from: $10.95 I absolutely adored this movie as a child and I still do today. Cute and silly.
|
 | Rock-A-Doodle
Buy used from: $5.39 Lesser known than most of the movies on this list; I like it. The story line is a bit weird and so are the characters, but I think that's what makes this movie special.
|

|
 | Joseph - King of Dreams
Buy new: $11.99 / Used from: $2.49 Although not as highly acclaimed as it's sister movie, The Prince of Egypt, this story is just as good. Told in a different way with some nice songs, it makes for a good movie overall.
