    Saw part of Beauty and the Beast when my daughter was young. Wanted to punch Beauty in the face sooo bad and stopped about 10 minutes in. Never saw any of the others.

    I liked The Lion King, Beauty and the Beast, and Aladdin the best. I was never as interested in The Little Mermaid, even though it was at the height of its popularity when I was a kid and all of my friends LOVED it. I preferred Beauty and the Beast because I always thought Ariel was an idiot.

    Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid warm the frosty cockles of my heart.

    Alladin will always hold good memories for me, but it has more to do with the time in my life that I saw it than the actual movie.

    Yes. This exactly. I had a hard time choosing between B&B and TLM. The music for both was spectacular. And I ADORE Flounder.

    I don't really think any of these as "Reinassance." For me, that's pre-1985, 101 Dalmations, Lady and the Tramp, etc...

    All these movies remind me of such good times of taking my daughter to see these films. Beauty and the Beast is my favorite out of these but I love them all.

    Hard choice. I liked Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Lion King and The Little Mermaid. The others were good too, but not my top picks. My oldest daughter LOVED Beauty and the Beast and Pocahontas.

    I actually think Beauty and the Beast was kind of amazing for what it was. It just felt so rich and full and like they put a hell of a lot into it. I loved Aladdin as well, and The Lion King is pretty epic but I don't enjoy it as much because it's kind of intense and stresses me out. I was never that into The Little Mermaid and I actually haven't seen a lot of the latter ones of that era.

    Belle is the bomb. How do role models for young girls get any better than a sweet, brave chick who loves books?

    If I were going by hottest female lead, I would give a slight nod to Esmeralda (Hunchback of Notre Dame) over Jasmine (Aladdin). Songs joking around about potential amputation really turn me off, too.

    Beauty and the Beast had the best collection of songs of all of them. Maybe a tie with Lion King, though.

    Mulan seemed to have the strongest, most independent female character.

    There were no evil stepmom's in any of these films - that's progress. Were there any mothers in these films, or were the dads all widowers?

    All of God's children are not beautiful. Most of God's children are, in fact, barely presentable.

    That sounds like another vote for "Beauty and the Beast"!

    Vouch, and I will recomend a book by Carl Hiiason called "Team Rodent". It's about all of the evils of Disney.
