Does Who Framed Roger Rabbit count? because that is one of my all-time favorite movies ever

I would say so. Disney has the rights to Roger Rabbit. So your good. And that is such a great movie as well! awesome

Well,.. I get to see Kirk Douglas sing in 2,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Can't see that too many places, And Mary Poppins has a lot of great song ( I Love to Laugh is one of my favorites). But if I'm flipping thru channels, and National Treasure is on, I always seem to stop, and watch it, which is something I don't normally do with most of the other movies, even though it ends the same way every time.

I love The Avengers, but I don't really think of the Marvel universe as Disney.

As for true Disney live-action movies, there are too many to count. Should I pick one I loved as a child (The Absent Minded Professor, The Shaggy Dog, Babes in Toyland, Mary Poppins, The Parent Trap, The Love Bug, etc., etc.) or one I enjoyed as an adult (Miracle, Pirates of the Caribbean, Secretariat, etc., etc.)? How can I pick just one?

Was just reminiscing of the some of the movies that I used to watch on the old school Disney Channel, featuring movies that were even older than me like Swiss Family Robinson, The Adventures of Bullwhip Griffin, Apple Dumpling Gang, The World's Greatest Athlete, and the Monkey's Uncle movies. New ones may be flasher, but I enjoy the spirit of these oldies as well.

Remember the Titans
Newsies
Miracle
Cool Runnings
The Mighty Ducks Trilogy
The Herbie Movies (Except Fully Loaded, not for me.)
Pirates of the Caribbean movies

I'm a huge Pirates franchise fan, and those are my favorite currents.

If you want to get old school though, Darby O'Gill and the Little People stole my heart long ago.

Old School: Old Yeller (still cry), Mary Poppins and Pete's Dragon

Modern: Definitely all the Pirates movies

I love Merry Poppins. Such good songs! I also love the Pirates movies. Jack Sparrow is such an iconic character!

There were 167 (roughly. the definitive list is disputed due to differences in distribution procedures and other issues) live action Disney movies made in the 20th Century. How many can you name?

Don't feel bad Allie. I think that's about all I got on the first try, too! I did eventually memorize the list and beat the quiz, but I can't do it anymore!
