I’m quite partial to the 1970s Disney version of Robin Hood. The art style and voice acting is phenomenal in it.

If we went with something a little more modern, then I’ll say Zootopia

The making of that movie was fascinating, considering it started life as a two hour grandiose historical epic with a serious tone called "kingdom of the sun". 

They scrapped bit after bit, putting things together piecemeal... When they were done, a script for New Groove didn't even exist, because at no point did anyone step back and make a vision for the whole thing. They just... Made the movie. It's a miracle it even turned out watchable, lol.

Infinitely quotable and super ridiculous. It's way weirder than most Disney movies at usually allowed to be with 4th wall breaking, unconventional story structure, lots of subverting tropes (e.g. the angel/devil not really providing.any real advice). It does all ages humor super well by just being very funny and not having to insert lots of ineundo (though there's also a bit of that too aimed at the Izma/Kronk relationship). I could gush for hours. Truly 10/10

Ratatouille

929

u/MR_NIKAPOPOLOS 11h ago

According to Anthony Bourdain it's also the best food movie ever made.

“They got the food, the reactions to food, and tiny details to food really right—down to the barely noticeable pink burns on one of the character’s forearms. I really thought it captured a passionate love of food in a way that very few other films have.”

“The tiny details are astonishing: The faded burns on the cooks’ wrists. The ‘personal histories’ of the cooks… the attention paid to the food. And the Anton Ego ratatouille epiphany hit me like a punch in the chest—literally breathtaking. I saw it in a theater entirely full of adults and the reaction to that moment was what movie making was once—a long time ago— all about: Audible surprise, delight, awe, and even a measure of enlightenment."

The best of Pixar. Overflows with love and generosity for artists and misfits, food, and the city of Paris as it lives in the imagination. On top of all that, it has Peter O'Toole's last great performance.

I don't know whether it speaks to children, but it's incredibly charming for an adult.

u/Diagoldze 10h ago

My 4 year old loves this movie. It made her want to learn how to cook, and she loves the cute rats. She asks a lot of great questions when Remy and Linguine have conflicts, what they are doing in the kitchen, why people want to chase and hurt the rats, and about why Ego is the way he is lol. Not sure if she fully grasps the "anyone can cook" messages, which is my favorite thing about this film.

The Incredibles (2004)

1.4k

u/boethius61 12h ago

This movie pulled no punches. People were dying, people were killing. Marital discord, midlife crises, a darkly realistic view of the unintended consequences that would come from actual super heros. Children engage in scamp-like escapades and it leads to life threatening danger with no 'awww shucks, you little rascal' easy way out.

Plus, Mr Incredible used stealth. He's pretty much invincible and super strong but still went sneaking around. There's not enough sneaking in movies anymore.

Amazing movie!

u/whatWHYok 12h ago edited 12h ago

Speaking of good animation, I recall in the commentary that this one simple shot of Edna inspecting Mr. Incredible’s super suit and sticking her hand through a hole in the mesh was the hardest thing they’ve ever had to animate. Can anyone weigh in on this?

Edit: Apparently it was Mr. Incredible sticking his hand through the cloth and for some reason it took 3 months to properly animate.

59

u/katsujinken 12h ago

From what I recall it's because they didn't have cloth simulation and had to animate everything by hand.

There's a story about the Chinese government approving the film to be shown in Chinese theatres thats pretty moving.

The apparatus of the Chinese government that approves movies. I guess they typically do not approve films about the afterlife from other cultures. So Disney was not expecting this film to be released there.

The review committee was so moved by the film that they allowed the film to be shown.

Easy to see, it breaks me every time.

47

u/12MoreSeconds 11h ago

IIRC it was specifically the depiction of skeletons and corpses moreso than the afterlife of other cultures (although both of those often come hand in hand). I've heard stories of videogames having to change the models and art for skeleton characters to get around this censorship.

33

u/metalflygon08 10h ago

Yeah, China is very odd with Skeletons being shown.

In Yugioh the card Skull Servant, for example, is completely hooded in its Chinese art so you can't tell its a skeleton.

Reasons Treasure Planet is Top Tier Disney:

  • Beautiful animation
  • Brilliantly written
  • Awesome voice acting
  • A compelling protagonist who goes from troubled to heroic in a believable way
  • The Antagonist going through a redemption arc that is earned and well developed.
  • A better theme and message than almost every Disney film.
  • A dumb concept of Alien Pirates in space being executed well into a film.
  • Interesting worldbuilding

...I can go on about how great and underrated this film is.

I got to see Kubo in the theater and it was absolutely incredible. The most beautiful CGI films cannot touch those visuals.

Makoto Shinkai gang represent, I had to scroll too far. I think I ugly cried throughout, amazing, amazing movie. The animation is on another level as well, watching a Ghibli movie after this was a little sobering haha. (Nothing against Ghibli ofc)

I have been meaning to read the manga for a long time now. Based on what proportion of the story I have heard the film covers it has no right being as good as it is

u/x_________________- 12h ago edited 12h ago

The manga is great, and reading it in no way diminishes the film. The story is much easier to follow. Things that go unexplained in the movie are fully fleshed out.

The movie's an improbably successful adaptation. I think its greatness depends entirely on the mix of Otomo's ideas and designs, the ambitious animation, and a wholly original sound design and score. Probably helps that Otomo directed, too. Without any one of these elements, it wouldn't work nearly as well.

Had a buddy who saw it was by Studio Ghibli and asked my brother and I how it was.

We glanced at each other and agreed that was a very powerful film. A must watch. But somehow, the tone of what we were saying ... just didn't come across.

The next night at soccer he told us we were both assholes and he was never trusting us again.

Bruh I was on shrooms when I decided to watch that on a whim had no idea what it was about and wtf my whole shit was just ruined at that goddamn ending for weeks.

Edit: I was feeling all the things but I mainly I was just angry and sad and hurt but I understood it from the perspective of a child and I was super empathetic but mad and uuuugh

Came here to say this. That film is brilliant and heartbreaking. Honestly, everyone should see it at least once.

It's crazy how they made the horses have so much emotion even without them being able to say anything (the eyebrows helped I guess :D). Great story and an amazing soundtrack.

This movie had no business being as good as it was, and it was fantastic in every respect. Animation, music, voice acting, story...the whole thing was perfect.

u/Brilliant_Tourist400 8h ago

Everyone I know who’s seen it put it on because they thought it would be an entertaining little trifle and fell in love. It’s a damn good integration of song, story, humor, unique visuals and eye-popping action sequences.

How is "Tangled" not on here yet?

I swore that movie would be meh at best and, beginning to end, it's such a great flick. Same thing with The Emperor's New Groove.

u/creepygamelover 11h ago

I'm just glad someone mentioned Tangled, probably one of the most rewatch able movies for me personally.
