kfeusse Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 we are headed to Disney at the end of October...and although we have seen lots of Disney/Pixar movies, I want to make sure my kids have seen all of the ones that would be cool for them to have seen before we go. Which ones would you think are important? (we are visiting all 4 theme parks)....I am leaving for my monthly BIG library visit in about 30 minutes...I should have asked this earlier....but this library has TONS of movies. thanks.

Lily_Grace Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 We do our Disney list differently. It's a ride list. :D Tower of Terror The Haunted Mansion. Pirates of the Caribbean Swiss Family Robinson Country Bears Saludos Amigos Most of the rest have been seen over and over. Depending on where you're staying you may want to look at movies themed with that - all the ones for Art of Animation or Lion King, Jungle Book, etc. for the Animal Kingdom side hotels.

Jeannie in NJ Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Lion King as you should not miss the Lion King live show at Animal Kingdom and it will help to be familiar with the movie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katilac Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Lion King (show) Beauty and the Beast (show) Toy Story (2 rides) Monsters Inc (Laugh Floor attraction) Peter Pan (ride) Pirates of the Caribbean (ride, movies are PG-13) and don't forget some Aerosmith tunes, to prep for Rockin' Roller Coaster!

Mrs Mungo Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 Let's see. The collective parks of Disney World have rides, shows, parades, characters walking around and/or heavy theming based around nearly every Disney movie you can think of and some that are not Disney movies (or were not). Off the top of my head? Swiss Family Robinson Alice in Wonderland Winnie the Pooh Toy Story Dumbo Aladdin Peter Pan Pinocchio Lady and the Tramp Raiders of the Lost Ark Star Wars Dinosaur Lion King Fantasia Song of the South The Twilight Zone tv show Mulan Lilo and Stitch Monsters Inc Cars Mary Poppins The Little Mermaid Finding Nemo Beauty and the Beast 101 Dalmations Robin Hood The Aristocats Cinderella Snow White Jungle Book Sleeping Beauty A Bug's Life Old Mickey Mouse, Donald and Goofy cartoons Pirates of the Caribbean (which, was sort of backwards from the usual way) The Sword in the Stone Honey, I Shrunk the Kids The Three Cabarellos even the Jungle Boat ride is sort of loosely based on The African Queen Hmm...that's all I can think of right now. I'm sure I missed something. The Great Movie Ride in Hollywood Studios has tributes to: Footlight Parade Tarzan Public Enemy Wizard of Oz Alien Mary Poppins Fantasia Singin' in the Rain Casablanca Raiders of the Lost Ark Do you plan on doing all of the parks? Some of these feature more prominently than others, depending upon the park. Where do you plan on eating? That can make a difference. For example, if you are doing the 1900 Park Fare breakfast, then you will definitely want to watch Alice and Mary Poppins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kim in Appalachia Posted September 24, 2012 Share Posted September 24, 2012 not a movie suggestion, but we listened to Tom Sawyer and then Huck Finn. My kids enjoyed running around the island and taking the ferry ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
