Lilo and Stitch

Lilo and Stitch doesn't get a lot of airtime when it comes to Disney fandom, but this story of a family adopted a strange dog alien just gets you so emotional! It'll send you on a rollercoaster ride and by the end, you'll have a better understanding of what family is. Plus for an alien, Stitch is mega cute.

2

The Emperor's New Groove

If you think Aladdin and Hercules is funny, The Emperor's New Groove is flat out hilarious. Plus David Spade as a llama is somehow the best possible casting choice of all time.

Fantasia

I always used to be afraid of this movie as a kid. There's some intensely dramatic scenes like the part with Chernabog. I usually would skip that part, but as an adult I can appreciate how the classical music is inspiring the animation and it's a god damn piece of art!

4

Into The Woods

Into The Woods wasn't exactly a blockbuster smash, but it's based on a musical that was quite successful by Stephen Sondheim. The music is intense but very melodic and beautiful. The whole movie is set in the woods and has a deep and a little bit dark message that's revealed by the end.

5

A Bug's Life

A Bug's Life is a total throwback to early Pixar films and it stands up to the films that have followed. It's a true hero's journey and is a whole lotta fun for both young and old. Since Toy Story came out shortly after A Bug's Life, it didn't get as much attention, but take my word for it, it's worth the watch!

6

The Princess and the Frog

This movie doesn't tend to be as popular as the other Disney Princess movies, but with a soundtrack by Randy Newman and jazz playing alligator, how can you go wrong. This movie has a groovy vibe and you'll be humming the songs long after you watch it.

7

Tangled

I have no idea why this movie is considered underrated, it is pure magic I tell you. Rapunzel is a hoot and a half and Flynn Ryder is seriously smouldering the whole time, what more can you want.

8

The Sword in the Stone

This movie is in one word: WACKY. You got swords, you got magic spells, you have an absent minded wizard. It's everything cool about the medieval times in one animated film.

9

Pocahontas

Pocahontas is all about the power of nature and listening to yourself. Though it's a more dramatic movie, it's anything but boring. The music is incredible and the animation is artful and unique. And don't we all wish we had a Grandmother Willow to help us through tough times?

10

Oliver and Company

This one often gets lost in the other more popular dog/cat Disney movies like 101 Dalmatians and Lady and the Tramp but it's such a gem! It's based on Oliver Twist, Oliver is an adorable orange cat orphan who is adopted by a gang of thieving dogs. This movie has New York written all over it, the music is outrageously great and Oliver couldn't be any sweeter!

11

The Great Mouse Detective

This movie is based on the adventures of Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson. It's an incredible tale of two mouse detectives getting an orphan, Olivia back to her father and saving her father from his doom. This movie is full of clever animation and funny quips. If you want a serious sleuthing adventure around London town, this is your ticket.

12

Robin Hood

How can you not love this guy. Robin Hood is such a great character. Little John and Robin just make for the most hilarious dynamic. Even though it is an older film, it doesn't feel dated at all. The music is delightful and the story is one that is timeless as can be.

13

Hercules

I also have no idea why Hercules is considered underrated because for me, it is probably up there with Aladdin and Lion King. It may be that the story itself doesn't evoke your classic Disney arc, but Hercules is a more serious guy. This movie is all about the music and comedy anyhow, so sit your butt down and watch a true Disney classic.
