The last couple of months our family has watched a lot of Disney movies, sometimes with our daughter but a lot of times without her. You can expect more posts soon with comments on themes, narratives, and theology in some of these movies. Below is my current, ongoing ranking of Disney movies.
Like any list, this one’s subjective. I give greater weight to original stories, strong plots, developed characters, clear ideas (even if I disagree with them), and I factor in the soundtrack. There are many Disney movies we still need to see, so I’ve only listed the ones I’ve recently watched. (None of the titles below refer to the recent live-action remakes.)
Id love to hear which movies to watch ASAP that aren’t on my list, as well as what do you agree or disagree with, and why?
