[quote="Amadou"]I've decided to start buying DVDs with the best Disney animated movies, and I absolutely need your advise. The few movies that I've seen, I saw in my childhood, and I forgot almost everything about them. I don't want to buy them at random. Well, I thought, maybe you guys could give your opinions on which movies are worth being bought and watched (except my favorites "Aladdin", "The Little Mermaid", "BatB", "Tarzan" and "Mulan").[/quote]
