obsessive tendencies #5: disney. disney. disney movies

i grew up as a disney child. my mom loves disney, and having grown up in a disney loving household, i haven't fallen far from the apple tree. some people are against disney, but personally that doesn't matter to me. i love it and am not ashamed to say so even in my mid-twenties. 

so i thought i share some of my favorite disney movies on the off chance that it makes you think, "hmmm, i haven't watched that in ages. i should totally watch it again." animated only though, because disney makes more movies than one blog post/blogger can handle.

1. Cinderella- my favorite disney film. at a young age, there was not a day that i didn't watch this movie. i am sure that my parents can go the rest of their lives without any reference to it, but i still love it.

2. The Little Mermaid- a favorite as a child, but a disney film that my love for hasn't really continued on. it still holds a special place in my heart, and ariel is still one of my favorite disney princesses, but not a disney film that i am motivated to pop in the DVD player and watch.

3. Alice in Wonderland- this film is one of my favorites. a children's film that i believe is really for adults. i can actually relate to alice at this pivotal time in my life, when I'm trying to figure out what to do with my future. i often give myself really good advice, but i rarely often follow it.

4. The Sword in the Stone- a disney film that i hated as a child, but came to appreciate thanks to my best friends in high school. it has become a nostalgic activity to watch the movie, but also something that i enjoy watching.

5. Mary Poppins- a classic film with an awesome soundtrack. another childhood favorite that has followed me in to adulthood, and another film i still watch often.

6. Mulan- the song "i'll make a man out of you" is a good enough reason for anyone to watch this movie. 'nuff said.

7. Pocahontas- another childhood favorite, and a film that i would still consider popping into the DVD player on a lazy sunday. plus, christian bale is one of the voice actors in the sequel.

8. Dumbo- one of my favorites, but a difficult one to watch. i cry every time. i haven't watched it in forever, and this post has inspired me to do so.

9. The Three Caballeros- a all around feel good film, and a classic. love this and still watch it.

10. 101 Dalmatians- a film that i myself often forget about, but upon re-watching end up falling in love with all over again.
