you know that feel when youre just all sitting around and shit and you think to yourself "damn i wish i had a pair of pants with a HUGE fucking grateful dead logo on the ass"

Nah, it's not like they told me not to watch it, it's just that they never tried to get/borrow those movies when I was a kid, or made an effort for me to watch them (my mom loves Cinderella, and it's a favorite at my house).
And, well, from what I've heard of Dumbo, it's a movie that is, well, very I-don't-know-the-word-for-it. Like, whatever the term is when something has something involving race but in a way that's not okay or mature or well-done or something, I don't know.
And Pinocchio is, from what I've heard, about as intense as Brave Little Toaster and about as feelings-jerking as Land Before Time. Considering how I've read that Pinocchio is the movie that the Disney guys put the most effort in and their most ambitious project, I don't think I need to see the guys who did:
Do something like
with feels like
I dun think I ken take it, yo.
(this last image makes sense if you've seen The Brave Little Toaster)
In fact, I read in a history of the art of Disney that the failure of Pinocchio was responsible for much of that company's creative conservatism/restraint/practicality. Snow White was a gamble that paid off, Pinochio was a gamble that failed, and they never tried gambling again.
I actually don't know anything of this movie really other than its history, title, and the basic "become a real boy, your nose gets long when you lie" premise.

Wasn't the failure of Fantasia the main cause of that?

I should see a bunch of kids movies from my childhood again and review them
That sounds fun
Didn't you want to not watch Land Before Time because your childhood memories were so beautiful?
I feel the same way.
But, given things like this; it seems it is as good as we remember:
Quoth Trisha's obligatory Art Blog: ""The Land Before Time" is seventy minutes of nonstop amazing hand-drawn, hand-painted analog animation. This is still one of the most gorgeous movies I've ever seen and it includes some of the most astonishing sequences of character and effects animation I've had the pleasure of watching to this day. I don't know if there's an actual record for this, but I think it's fair to say that this little film, pound for pound, has more hand-rendered special effects animation than any other. (I remember the wonderful Bob Thomas book, Disney's Art of Animation: From Mickey Mouse to Beauty and the Beast, in which one of the special effects animators bragged that "Beauty and the Beast" had "everything but volcanoes". Hey, guess what "Land Before Time" has? And there is a distinct lack of CAPs technology in their end credits. [Then again, "Beauty and the Beast" has a character who is a constantly moving and changing light source, so if you ignore the computer animation issue, the films are pretty even.])"
I htink that the COMPUTER is a pretty big thing to ignore there, Trisha.
Also Quoth Trisha: " We were finally going to get to see a whole movie with dinosaurs in action. I know that doesn't sound like a big deal in today's post-"Walking With Dinosaurs" world, but you kids have to understand that back then, animated dinosaurs usually meant "Flintstones" reruns. And the only other high-profile dinosaur movie from the 1980's was... yeah..."
You know, I find it more than a little amusing that the Koch brothers were once pupils of Robert LeFevre, who while economically very right-wing was also an ardent pacifist and borderline Stirnerite.
This is a rather poor list in my opinion (Frozen beating Spirited Away? By 4 spots?), but it made it to the top of the Google search, so
The Lion King is an acceptable first, and Aladdin is an acceptable third. I'm baffled by Frozen making it to the 4th spot. Princess and the Frog somehow slipped down to 83 (I didn't think it was good, but worse than Hocus Pocus?). All the movies that I'd put high on my list (Lilo and Stitch, Hunchback of Notre Dame, Howl's Moving Castle, Nightmare Before Christmas) are all nestled in the 50-60 range, which puts them all lower than Remember the Titans.
I should be completing the work I have to do for my Western Civ I class but am instead trying out new and novel class/race combinations in DungeonCrawl.

I thought that show was rather short-lived, yes?

(that's the cinderella my mom grew up on)
Make of that what you will
And, well Bambi was a huge failure.
So, I guess that trifecta of fail.
