My Disney movies checklist!

As the title says, I think you can almost guess what this post will be about...
Not to say I led a deprived childhood, in fact mine was a more-than-fulfilling one with everything I wanted and more. But, you can't want what you don't even know exists.

And as a child, I didn't know some of the best classic Disney animated movies of all time existed!! I was honestly extremely into Barney, Britney Spears, Barbie dolls and Cartoon Network!

I think this was mostly caused by the fact that I have much older siblings, who watched said Disney movies when they were young... so when it came to my turn, they were too old to want to watch it with me, and my parents were probably so sick of the movies already. 

Thus, nobody ever introduced them to me :( And now that I'm older, I can't help but feel like I missed out on the "Disney magic"...

Okay, let's see how much I can shock you... get ready for it...

I've never watched Lion King before.


Yeah, these dudes over here? Nope, never seen 'em before.

I like to go around saying this sentence to people just to see their reactions... which are usually extremely amusing and look something like this: Image and video hosting by TinyPic

Oh, I've also never watched...
1. Beauty & The Beast
2. Toy Story
3. Bambi
4. Sleeping Beauty
5. Snow White
6. Aladdin
7. Peter Pan
8. Pinocchio
9. Dumbo
10. Jungle Book
11. Hercules
12. Hunchback of Notre Dame
13. Alice in Wonderland
14. Brother Bear
15. Cars
16. The Princess and the Frog... and, yeah.

I swear it's true. Are you thoroughly and completely WTF yet??

The only Disney movies I've seen before are Mulan, Pocahontas, Cinderella, Little Mermaid, A Bug's Life, Tarzan and Lady and the Tramp.

And of course most of the newer ones like Emperor's New Groove, Atlantis, Monsters Inc, 101 Dalmations, Treasure Planet, Finding Nemo, Chicken Little, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, Wall-E, Meet The Robinsons and Bolt.

Contrary to popular belief, Anastasia is NOT a Disney movie. I ♥ it so much now though! Watched it a zillion times. But I used to HATE it when I was younger.

For those of you who've seen it, you can't deny it was fucking scary okay!! Rasputin was so damn creepy and all those green ghouly things that kept trying to kill Anastasia, and the ghosts of Anastasia's family luring her to her death OMG. Not a movie for kids!!! :S

So, over this coming weekend, since I predict myself getting bored and in need of severe distractions, I am on a mission!

A mission to watch ALL the famous classic Disney movies that I've never seen before! I don't think I'll actually succeed but it's the effort that matters, right? Right?? 

And I think nobody's EVER too old to go to DISNEYLAND!!! I'm still hoping to make a trip to the Hong Kong one some day, just for the novelty and nostalgia of it.

I'm really curious to know, what's everyone's favourite Disney animated movie of all time?
