I love Disney's animations as I grew up watching them. I have a hard time enjoying the live-actions but I do understand why they keep making them.

I absolutely love Disney movies. I grew up with them and have most of the old school ones memorized. Lion King and Aladdin have always been my favorite, along with Sleeping Beauty (my daughter's middle name is Aurora) and Nightmare Before Christmas (I have a giant Nightmare tattoo on my right shoulder). I have just always been a fairy tale lover, so watching them on the screen is a thrill for me.
I am not a huge fan of the live action remakes, but a couple of them aren't terrible. I definitely like the old movies better (most likely just for nostalgic reasons), but Tangled was a renaissance for Disney. It changed the game, and they've made a few gems in the recent years.
I am not a fan of the money grub Disneyland parks are at the moment, but I will forever be a huge Disney fan.

I live for Disney movies. They were a big part of my childhood and helped teach some life lessons. I still hold quotes from “Winnie the Pooh,” “Lion King” and other popular titles close to me.

I was a big Disney fan when I was growimg up. Currently, I'm not because I do not like the remakes. They should get more original scripts.

My favourite one was Toy Story, also I came bit disappointed as the saga continued. If going to the “originals” (as no Pixar) maybe The Beauty and The Beast.
Some of the new ones are really good as well. I feel Luca is so underrated for example.

I was never a big fan of disney moves because i felt as though they were very depressing. I like princess ones and the storylines were always quite captivating. I just don’t think it was for me personally.

I love Disney animated movies. Since small I watch Disney movies, I grow up watching the movies. Even now I watch Disney movies if there is any new release.

Yes, I love Disney movies. My favorite is The Lion King as the music gets me every single time. When I lived abroad for a while I missed my home in South Africa so much, and would listen to the Circle of Life and cry my eyes out! I also really enjoy Tarzan. The musical score is also fantastic. "You'll be in my heart always..." Phil Collins. I cry every single time.

I love Disney movies! I'm more a fan of the classic animated movies. I haven't seen all of the new movies. I grew up watching Disney movies and Disney channel. I had a younger sister, and my mom babysat for many years, so I grew up having to watch younger content for a long time. It was always a treat when we would go to the dollar movie theater to see new movies, usually Disney movies. I just love the stories and especially the music. I was one of the adults who was super excited and went to see the new sequels in theaters, like Finding Dory and the Incredibles 2. I have a Disney playlist on Spotify. This is my happy music. It brings me back to happier times, before all the problems that come with being an adult. I am always up for watching a Disney movie. My all-time favorites are Mulan and Lilo & Stitch.

Disney movies have lessons embedded in them, in Moana i learnt to always face fear head on, because if she had stayed in her comfort zone she wouldn't have discovered all she did.
Moana yessss, it was so inspiring and eye catching at the same time, disney really needs to make more of it.
