I work at a school and am pulling together all the senior's graduation items, quotes, bios, photos, songs, etc. One young lady submitted "I'm Still Here" by the Goo Goo Dolls from Treasure Planet as her song. I was so happy to see this! My kids and I LOVE this film. It's beautifully made, the script is good, the story is good, the voice actors are great, it's poignant and funny and the steam punk settings are really, really cool. I think it's one of the most underrated Disney films. It scored 69/71 on Rotten Tomatoes.
Do you have a Disney film that you think doesn't get the praise it deserves?

DD was just saying the other day what a cool movie Treasure Planet was — a favorite among her friends.
For me, WallE is another one that everyone agrees was good, but it doesn’t get talked about much. So sweet and beautiful.

I like most of them for different reasons, but I’m a Disney junkie so I’m probably the wrong person to ask!

We loved Treasure Planet! We also really loved the Disney American Legends one too. It has the stories of John Henry, Paul Bunyan and Johnny Appleseed.
Not Disney, but one of my all time favorites is Spirit. I don’t know anyone else who’s kids really watched that one or had the DVD.

Not Disney (at least I don't think so) but Tangled and Hood Winked are favorites.

My dd, who is not a horse lover, has the Spirit movie and loved it growing up. They even made it into a tv series and she watched the first few seasons |

Still now at 17 she watches it. We had Spirit everything. In fact, Santa brought her something Spirit in her stocking this year. She freaked and immediately snap chatted it 😂 |

Journey of Natty Gann! I always wished there had been a sequel, but I would have loved knowing what happened next.

There's a short out there called The Little Match Girl that brings tears to my eyes every time I see it. While not a film, I think it's underrated.

I first saw it on the bonus disc for The Little Mermaid back in 2006, but now it's available on Netflix under Disney Shorts.

Such a sweet but sad story. That is cool it was bundled with Little Mermaid since they are both Hans Christian Anderson stories. |

Some of my favorites are the live action movies: *Bedknobs and Broomsticks (although, Wikipedia says a musical is in the works, so this will be introduced to lots of new people) *Pollyanna *Summer Magic (probably my favorite) ETA: This list reminded me of movies that I didn't remember. Have y'all seen "Midnight Madness"? I loved that movie when I was little. |

We really love both Planes, and Planes Fire and Rescue. I know they get a reputation for being “Cars in the Sky” but I really love the messages in both about humility, friendship, teamwork, sacrifice, hard work, adapting, and managing disappointment. I like them better than Cars, actually.

Escape to Witch Mountain, Parent Trap and Freaky Friday (the originals), Pollyanna, the Cat From Outer Space. Something Wicked This Way Comes and Watcher in the Woods used to scare the tar out of me, but I loved them and rented them constantly from the video store. Return to Oz is amazing and terrifying as well, We used to watch Johnny Tremain in school, and would get “ We are the sons, yes, we are the sons, the sons of Liberty!” Stuck in our heads. |

I also loved Cars 3! It took us back to the great character interactions and relationships like in Cars. Cars 2 should be burned and never shown again.

I have several SVG files I use to make him things because I can never find anything WallE. |
