This is the first countdown that I have successfully completed in months, and this was an interesting concept. Thanks to everyone who participated in the countdown. Some films will age forever (or for hundreds of years), while some will die out in a decade.

Timeless:1. unaffected или unchanged by time; ageless
2. eternal

11. Aladdin

This one was the obvious first choice, and to be honest, is the only film that is not timeless out of the bunch. This film was praised especially for the Поп-культура references coming from Genie but 20 years later, it is working to it's disadvantage. A lot of the humour has worn off and is specifically for Americans of the time. Also, the fact that Аладдин and жасмин seem like teens from the 90s from their dialogue does not help. They did not think of the long-term with this film and it shows.


Comments
- The film would have been a lot better if it wasn't for Genie and his pop culture jokes. Same with Мулан about if it wasn't for Mushu (princecatcher93)
- agree with Jayden-G. This movie cannot stand the test of time. The early 90s pop culture references are Остаться в живых to me because I wasn't born yet, so I find myself laughing at things I don't understand but that I know are supposed to be funny. (MaidofOrleans)
- Yeah pop culture references, poor animation/strange style (imo), and the movie just isn't one of Disney's best (imo) (dclairmont)
- I сказал(-а) it before: The movie aged really badly! In fact, there were jokes in it I didn't get from the very beginning, because they were about American pop culture specifically. (Swanpride)
- Аладдин is the only choice right now. Robin Williams (who's prime was in the late 80s-early 90s) сказал(-а) many Поп-культура jokes from the 90s and 80s, and the jokes have definitely worn off and makes things odd and confusing. It takes Ты out of the moment. Аладдин and жасмин do seem like kids from the 90s too. The dialogue has 90's terminology. Everything about the film screams early 90's and only early 90's. (I)

10. Brave

I'm going to put it bluntly; I do not know why Храбрая сердцем went out before some of the others and in this round. I know this film is easily the most disliked one in the group, but this is about timelessness. So what was сказал(-а) is that Merida is a very trendy character (this I agree with, but so are all the others), and that the humour is extremely childish and bad. Some even сказал(-а) that it does not have that Дисней magic; It is Pixar. I just think some of the points are pretty weak and is an excuse to rid this movie, but maybe I'm missing something.


Comments
- I decided to choose Храбрая сердцем because it's missing that timeless, Дисней magic, but I could still change my vote....I'm really not sure. (dclairmont)
- Mainly because I think Merida is a very trendy character (rhythmicmagic)
- The jokes in this film aren't really ones Ты would want to hear on a дата night, break up или just a hang out night. There еще of little boy jokes или should I say DreamWorks или worst Cartoon Network style of jokes in the way the were geared to the behind of males and the chest of women. It wasn't a movie I could remember или think of as Timeless I think a lot of people would have to see it another time to remember anything from it. The plot to it was messy which doesn't give it points. The other films like Tangled, The Little Mermaid или Snow White are very timeless almost everyone knows them and other stands the points being. This is all the reason why I think Храбрая сердцем should go. (princecatcher93)
- Simply because it isn't based on a fairytale. The others are stories that we know and Любовь that have been told and retold throughout history. Храбрая сердцем is an original story, and it will probably eventually be forgotten in the future. (MaidofOrleans)
- I agree with someone who сказал(-а) that Merida is a very trendy character. Normally I like tomboy characters but Merida however, is way too tomboyish. Also the movie had nothing interesting/special going on in terms of plot and character. The jokes were also horrible-when I saw this movie in theatres, me and the audience grossed out at the butt jokes. Queen Elinor was the only interesting character that I like. The mother/daughter thing between Merida and her mom is nice but it gets overshadowed by the movie's lame attempt at comedy. (fahmad27)
- I went into Храбрая сердцем with an excited heart. I left bored. (Shiki_Otherside)

9. Рапунцель - Запутанная история

It is no shock this film was eliminated so soon. The biggest criticism of this film is that it is very today; it does not have any pop-vulture references like Аладдин does, but it's dialogue has slang terms and catchphrases that are used today. Also, some прокомментировал(-а) on the pop songs and the pop-like voices. Some even compared it Шрек and is often compared to DreamWorks, which is the epitome of pop-culture.


Comments
- Рапунцель - Запутанная история has a lot of dialogue that is not timeless, such as "I know, right?" and other phrases. (kayla_marie57)
- I think it's partly cuz Рапунцель - Запутанная история is still so new that it just does not feel timeless. it's barely HAD any time. And yes, the dialogue as well as characters are too modern sounding. A lot of the Музыка is also modern and pop-y. It feels еще like Шрек than a classic Дисней fairy tale. Way too much modern in one movie to be truly timeless. (AudreyFreak)
- It copies original Дисней fairytale too much!!! (LightningRed)
- The Музыка style, the language, animation, and the characters are very today. (MallorMar)

8. Pocahontas

I was quite shocked that this film left when it did, but I can see reasons as to why it did though. One of the main criticisms was the historical inaccuricies from it;s release and even still today, which is replaced with western stereotypes and the fact that the film is specifically set in 1607. Some people сказал(-а) a timeless film has to be one that is liked, which I disagree with. It's about the content that does not age.


Comments
- The historical inaccuracies don't make this a very timeless movie. It's offensive to many Native Americans, and in my mind a timeless movie has to be loved by all. (MaidofOrleans)
- Like what everyone were saying for TPatF is has a set timeline, but unlike the Princess and the Frog there isn't really the fun side of Дисней to it, it's еще like a History Movie then a Дисней Movie. It tried to follow the Книги to much and didn't really go out on a limb to make it as timeless as the other ones. (princecatcher93)

7. The Princess and the Frog

It was time for this film to go, though it is not quoting anything from the late 2000s. People chose this film over the others because it is set in a specific дата (more specifically 1920's New Orleans), which makes it not have that fairy-tale feeling, though I don't think it should be chosen becaise it's not fairy-tale like. There is also some dialogue and slang from the 1920s which is an artistic choice, but it's still 1920's slang. At least it was not used for humour.


- I actually thought Pocahontas was еще timeless :(
I see some moderness in PatF (uploaded900)
- Oh man now it's really hard to choose. I still think this movie is pretty timeless, just not compared to the others. (MaidofOrleans)
- It is set in too modern place. (LightningRed)
- I'm going with The Princess and the Frog again. It just doesn't have that Дисней fairytale feel. (Muppetfan16)
- I also agree that because it's set in a modern time period, it looses the timeless feel. (dclairmont)

6. Мулан

A majority of the voters agreed on this one and word word was the common denominator: Mushu. He is kind of like Genie, but he does not put out Поп-культура references nearly as often as Genie does.


Comments
- Only because of Mushu (rhythmicmagic)
- One word: Mushu! (MaidofOrleans)
- Mushu and all his dumb jokes (princecatcher93)
- Because of Mushu (LibelluleBleu)
- the newest..therefore LEAST timeless (retrolove83)

5. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

Everyone agreed that this one has aged very well since it's release and compared to other Фильмы from the 1930s and it was between this and The Little Mermaid, but this one was the one to go. People сказал(-а) that it is very 1930s, with the voices, music, hairstyle, storytelling, format and animation. They also thought that it is stereotypical in the sense that is what those people thought each gender should be like. These reasons are why the film cannot even be compared to a lot of the others in the WDAS canon.


Comments
- The format of the movie is very 30s, meaning a lot of filler, a soundtrack that is similar to that of the period, and the characters are what the 30s thought the ideal male and female is like. It has aged incredibly well, but this is why it can't even compare to some of the other films in the canon. The structure is very different than structures in Фильмы today. The Анимация also has not aged well at all. (I)
- The Анимация hasn't aged very well, and the character's voiced have aged too. I can barely even understand Grumpy (dclairmont)
- Only because of Snow's voice- I honestly don't know how I'll pick after this (rhythmicmagic)
- I don't get the story line. (pookafusmcgee)
- This или TLM Дисней should make еще timeless ones (TheFabulousFAN)
- What Jayden-G сказал(-а) (ibelluleBleu)
- Snow White is very 30th and TLM is very 80th, so they should go next. I was first inclined to pick TLM, just because, well, Snow White is 75 years old and still works fine, but I think the 30th style is very obvious, while TLM is еще Дисней style with some telling elements (like the hair and the puffy sleeves).
Oh, and considering how old this one really is, it has aged VERY well. Just compare it with Фильмы made around the same time. It's also less the Анимация which aged in a sense that is says "oh, the gimmick of the 30th", it's еще that Дисней has learned so much since them. Really, if not for the obvious 30th style hair and make-up, I wouldn't have picked it at all. (Swanpride)

4. The Little Mermaid

Some of the Комментарии that were сказал(-а) honestly did not make sense to me, but maybe it is just me. What was сказал(-а) about this film is that it is very 80s at parts, like the animation, character designs, clothes, music, etc. Other Комментарии сказал(-а) that they remember what is going to happen, meaning it is too cliché and that it is not based off of a classic fairytale.


Комментарии
- Like I сказал(-а) last time, Timeless means to me that I can watch it over and over again and still no know/remember what will happen next. Beauty and the Beast and The Little Mermaid aren't that timeless for me because I can tell what's going to happen. Sleeping Beauty and Золушка are very timeless and should be the вверх 2 (princecatcher93)
- It's not based off of a classic fairytale, which makes it less timeless in my mind. (MaidofOrleans)
- I agree with MaidofOrleans and princecatcher93 (dclairmont)
- It's soooooo 80th at parts. (Swanpride)
- Meh, this movie just isn't timeless! (CRaZy_rawR)

3. Sleeping Beauty

This round was very interesting. People voted for this film for many reasons; some voted for it because it is weaker in story and character and such than the other two and uses stereotypes, some mentioned the catchphrases, voices, character designs and storytelling is those of the 1950s. Other Комментарии were just defending Beauty and the Beast, saying it is еще timeless, nominated fro the Best Picture award, and how it is constantly on вверх 10, вверх 20's lists while Sleeping Beauty is not.


Comments
- Now I can't choose based off of plot elements или anything - these Фильмы are all so incredibly timeless! I'm not sure why I picked Sleeping Beauty, it just FEELS less timeless to me. I actually like it еще than Золушка though. I don't think Beauty and the Beast should go - after all it is the "tale as old as time." (MaidofOrleans)
- Sleeping beauty is very 50's. The story structure, voices, stereotypes and even the characters are designed like the 50's. Ты can tell by an instant that it is the 50's which Ты can't really do in Cinderella. There are less stereotypes of the 50s in Золушка than Sleeping Beauty. (I)
- "Now father, you're living in the past .This is the 15th century!"
I almost voted Cinderella, because I like Sleeping Beauty better, but this isn't about the better movie. (MalloMar)
- princecatcher there are no plot holes in Beauty and the Beast, what are Ты talking about? I have watched the movie еще times than I can count over the course of 22 years. I could recite the whole thing by сердце in front of a person, and know it and The little Mermaid which ALSO HAS NO plot holes better than the back of my hand. So tell me what exactly Ты are talking about. (persephone713)
- This movie is most memorable for it's visual style, villain, and climax. That's it really. It's weak on story & songs and doesn't develop the main characters well enough. And compared to Золушка & BATB, Sleeping Beauty didn't do anything for the Дисней Studios as much as they did (and until the renaissance 30 years later Sleeping Beauty was the last fairy tale so that might be a factor).

I'm not saying it's terrible- I do enjoy watching it- but now that I'm older it doesn't really have much going for me. (bluecinderella4)
- I've been voting for this for ages!!!! (LightningRed)
- I never think that Sleeping Beauty is timeless. Aurora seldom appears in the movie, too much Феи scene is boring.... (3x2)

2. Beauty and the Beast

This one was very tough for a lot of voters, as they thought both were extremely timeless. A few voters chose this because of the pop ballad at the end of it, which is so 90s. They also сказал(-а) that it is very hard to tell that Золушка is all the way back from the 1950s. The fact that Золушка was the older fairy tale was brought up too. A Комментарий explained that the fact that the message of Золушка is less realistic and еще simple than Beauty and the Beast is better for timelessness, making BatB еще for what people of the 90s thought.


Comments
- Just something about it is holding it back from being as Timeless as Cinderella, the Музыка for one. Just because it's the Tale as Old as Time doesn't make it Timeless, just makes it old. Timeless means not affected by the passage of time. Which Золушка is, but as time goes on (20 to 30 years) BatB will be forgot to the newer Дисней films but Золушка will still be standing strong. (princecatcher93)
- Sigh...well at least Ты spared me the difficult decision between Золушка and Sleeping Beauty.
BatB is timeless, but there are a few elements which age the movie, mainly some aspects in the Анимация and the pop-ballade at the very end. It's fairly easy to see from which era the movie is. With Золушка (and Sleeping Beauty) I always have to remind myself that the Фильмы are both еще than 50 years old.
(And honestly, BatB shouldn't win just because it's such a Популярное movie. I like it too, еще than Cinderella, but that doesn't mean that it has to win every countdown). (Swanpride)
- I disagree with all of Ты I think since Золушка has lasted since Egyptian times (look it up) it will defiantly last. Long beauty and the beast though just as timeless still has modern phrases in it personally the story of of both will be timeless the movie however will not so u just can't chose but the little mermaid though I Любовь Ariel will not be timeless either nor will any of the Дисней princesses but beauty and the beast and Золушка are defiantly the most timeless out of all of them (The FabulousFAN)
- I agree with SwanPride (dclairmont)
- Many people have сказал(-а) that Золушка is targeted for kids and that Beauty and the Beast is much еще mature and has the еще realistic message. But that kinda makes it less classical. Little kids always get the message that there will be a happy ending, and I think Золушка created that. BatB tells Ты that being a little different isn't bad, and that it's about the heart, not the face. But kids don't realize that, and while it is a great message, the judging a book by it's cover isn't right lesson barely effects adults. Why? Because they're all happy people with children and want THEM to realize that. Also, in the defense of Cinderella, that story has been repeated forever, to make children happy, so when they grow up they can try to make their own wishes come true. All Beauty and the Beast needed was Дисней to make the fairytale Популярное and well known. So, it's only classic in some levels. Then there's Cinderella, which was one of the first the grace the big screens, and has effected many еще generations than BatB and the Lion King put together. I'd also like to note that all of those generations of children as well as adults back then enjoyed the magic of the movie back when these kinds of heroines were еще appreciated. Now, we watch the Фильмы as we're older and review them, which kinda means the еще we judge and grow, the еще we lose the magic. So I think Фильмы like Cinderella, which are for kids, contain еще magic. Thus, I prove my point for choosing Cinderella. (hajirah4)

1. Золушка

Cinderella is the "Most Timeless" according to Fanpop, but some people thought otherwise. Комментарии about it сказал(-а) that BatB is constantly on вверх 10's lists and nominated for Best Picture, making it stronger and еще classic. They also сказал(-а) that because Золушка has a simpler... everything, it makes it less relate-able to current and future audiences, and that it is also what people thought in the 1950s which this film shows. Commenters also сказал(-а) that Золушка is enjoyable for only kids while Beauty and the Beast has a wider age audience and can relate to adults. Either way, those reasons were not strong enough to take Золушка from the #1 spot. Some consider this THE fairytale story.

Comments
- completely Disagree. Beauty and the Beast has stood the test of time already for 22 years, and just like " The Little Mermaid" who will be 25 years old Далее it will be celebrated for decades and remembered. Both are timeless with flawless stories& Анимация and are constantly voted by people in movie blogs as part of Disney's Best of the Best. Both being in the вверх 10, along with Lion King. Not to mention like I сказал(-а) Beauty and the Beast remains Disney's only animated feature to be nominated for Best Picture. Some of this is fact but mostly MY OPINION. Peace. (persephone713)
- I completely agree with you, Persephone713. 'Beauty and the Beast' has been enjoying people young and old. Cinderella...more only for kids. (In my opinion) 'Beauty and the Beast' are always in the вверх 10, sometimes вверх 5. (Beastlysoul25)
- I agree with what Ты guys have said. I'll admit that I'm a little biased because Золушка is my least Избранное DP movie while Beauty and the Beast is my favorite, but I do think that Золушка isn't quite as timeless as Beauty and the Beast. They are both classic Фильмы with strong female leads and beautiful Любовь stories, but I think that Beauty and the Beast has еще meaning behind it. It has a stronger message (beauty lies within) that is еще applicable to today's world than Cinderella's message. I also think the soundtrack is way better and complements the movie more. Not to mention it is the "tale as old as time." (MaidofOrleans)
- I agree with Persephone713 (Libellulebleu)

Комментарий about how Ты feel about the Список and such, and thanks to everyone who participated in the countdown.
