I totally agree with Merlin's list. I don't think Fantasia has staying power with the younger generations. (Though I personally adore it!)

If I had to pick just two, I would put my money on Snow White and The Lion King. Unless you are including Pixar films in there, in which case I would say it would probably be Finding Nemo and The Lion King. This by no means reflects my favorite Disney films of all time. I'm just going by what the public seams to buy the most of.

Look to the merchandise and theme parks and the used video bins for the answer to the lasting film properties. It's clear which ones never go out of style - - the fairy tales.

I would say Beauty and the Beast & The Lion King. I thought for sure Aladdin would be way up there, but apparently not - according to its platinum sales.

I'd say Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and The Lion King. Runners up would be Cinderella, The Little Mermaid, and Beauty and the Beast. Why exactly are we picking two titles, again?

My own personal two favorites would have to be "The Little Mermaid" and "Old Yeller".

How many times will you find these in a used DVD store or at a Pawn Shop?
