I've come across people who think Hunchback of Notre Dame was the most underrated movie. It's just....LOL. No.

Brave Little Toaster freaked me out too much to watch the entire thing.

Dude, I don't know what it was about that movie but it really messed with me!

The scene with the air conditioner was TERRIFYING.

I've seen them all. And own 3 of them. And those are honestly the only three that I like of the 6 listed there. But I have seen them all. Oh and I just adore the controversial history of The Brave Little Toaster. It's fantastic and was one of the stepping stones for Pixar. Unfortunately though, it's one of those films that isn't considered part of the Disney Animated Canon though since they gave the film to another company to produce and then simply distributed it under the Disney name.

Treasure Planet is mostly considered an underrated film given the time it came out. People were starting to dog Disney hard for no longer being at the height it was in the Renaissance so most people that like the movies from 2000-2009 tend to think most of them are underrated because they are not as critically acclaimed as the Ren films or even Classics.

I love (and own) all of these! I love old Disney. Brave Little Toaster was pretty tough to get through though. It's a very traumatic story. But I still tout the Three Caballeros. I even showed clips of it to my students during Cinco de Mayo. Education!

This! Love it!! I'm also a teacher, and LIVE for finding excuses to show favorite clips from my childhood to the kids. :D

Man, I can't wait until my country finally gets a The Brave Little Toaster DVD release, it's something I've always wanted to watch. In the official Disney canon, we have Melody Time on DVD but not Make Mine Music, so I've seen one but not the other, which makes me sad. Seen all the others.

I think the interesting thing here is all the movies you consider underrated are ones that don't follow a traditional linear plot - they're made up of sketches and skits or shorter films smooshed into one package. (I imagine Toaster is the exception, but I haven't seen it so I can't say for sure and for the sake of my point, it's not part of the official Disney canon.) The thing is, people may have seen bits of them (for instance, as a child I knew the Beanstalk story from Fun And Fancy Free, but not the rest of the movie) but they don't realise they're part of a longer work.

I think people feel that way about Treasure Planet because it's a film that was released in their lifetime that didn't receive a lot of recognition. They got to see the less ( ... )

I love you, anon. Your response is perfect in every respect. (BTW, this isn't the OP.)

Oh and The Brave Little Toaster is indeed one long work and not just vignettes.

Re: Comments for secret #01. behindgrey_eyes July 24 2011, 16:45:53 UTC

Ichabod and Mr Toad OMG MEMORIEEES :D Also loved the Three Caballeros :)

Re: Comments for secret #01. satunian July 24 2011, 22:48:16 UTC

...I have songs from the Brave Little Toaster on my iPod...

I generally don't consider anyone a hardcore Disney movie fan until they own a couple of the Walt Disney Treasures dvd tins. But you're right, people who haven't seen the movies listed in your secret and have only seen the mainstream Disney movies that claim to be hardcore Disney fans just make me laugh because they're generally the ones that have all the Nightmare Before Christmas and Alice stuff from Hot Topic and claim to be only into the mainstream movies for hipster reasons that no one can get. It's so silly.
