Going next week, my 4 year old really wants to meet Minnie mouse, all her clothes have her on and she is the best thing in the world in her mind, so pretty much the best holiday in the world for her. I think it all depends what your kids are into.
Is Disney lost in our Culture?

Sure it still has an impact but it's lessened of late because of other media. The fact that we're all waiting on the next Pixer movie not the next Disney movie makes my point
What in your opinion is wrong with cars? Not a huge fan of cars 2 myself but my 2 year old adores them both.
I read an interview the other day where some celeb said he took his son to see cars 2 and went to apologise to his son at the end and his son said "that was awesome dad, can we watch it again"
I really like cars 1, even in 2 I love all the reflections and attention to detail.
Cars1 is probably at the bottom of the list of Pixar movies but it still better the a majorty of Deamworks crap (How to train your dragon is better through).
It's a grower for sure, it does get better with repeated viewings
But Cars2? One of the worst CGI cartoons ever to be created. Pixar really should hang there heads in shame

Disney has re-invented itself, it's all about Toy Story, Nemo, Cars and whatever else.
Mickey who?

How many of you replying actually have kids?
My daughter LOVES Disney, especailly Mickey / Minnie Mouse.
Kinda made me ROFL - Look at all the disney TV channels, shops, merchandise etc - Do you really think it would still be going strong, with the stores being FULL of the "classic" charachters, if kids didn't love it.
I think you are just bringing in your OWN preceptions of it because you have grown up. It all changes again once you have a kid......

Only because it's over complicated for a young child I think. I find UP to be a far worse and dull watch. The 5 minute section showing their life together is excellent the rest is dull as it gets.
Exactly, just the same as kids today prefer the star wars prequels and think old ones are dull.

I went for a month when i was 6 to Florida, remember loving every day of it but i cannot remember anything i did.
Good job there is over a 1000 photo's what sort of recap my memory of some things. Lot of photos are where my mum has took pictures of fat people because of how fat they are.... lol
The mother said it cost her back then around £5-6k. Bugger nose how much it would cost now for that.
My mrs was on about taking little one who is 6. Im not to fussed on the idea though as kids these days dont even know they are born, I don't think they would appreciate it like we did when we was younger. Therefore Spain with childrens entertainment will do.
If we come into a lot of money, maybe....

This is why I bought DVDFAB so annoying when your kid asks to watch a film and you have to sit there trying to skip 45 mins of adds to get to the film.
DVDFAB does away with all that.... straight to movie on load.
I don't have to sit anymore through the THANK YOU for buying this DVD nor through the piracy is wrong MMMMkay"infommercials"
Going to disney on 31st March and can't wait..... nearly 40 btw

I prefer Dreamworks to Pixar.
Above all though, I prefer 2D/traditional Disney. Was never really a fan as a kid, but at 16 and into adulthood, I latched onto Aladdin, Jungle Book, Fantasia, Lilo & Stitch and so on.
Disney still seems to be a big thing to kids nowadays. They keep plugging along their princesses and fairies franchises, and they recently rebooted Winnie the Pooh. Think they're rebooting the Muppets this year.

Have to stop this thread for a moment but Lion King was the best animated disney/pixar film ever.

Disney is not as big as when I was a kid in the 90s, but rest assured, the brand is still hugely powerful globally among the kids of today.
