But both of those scenes both show that the protagonists' love for the other character is no longer unrequited.  It's not necessarily all of the music numbers.  Some of them fit really well.  Others just kinda draw attention to the fact that they don't fit very well at all.  

I'm not saying Disney films are inherently worse than Pixar.  I just think that a lot of them are on par with the good Disney films.  I do not think Wall-E or Beauty and the Beast should've won Best Picture, but in my opinion they are both equally excellent.


Josef: Watch some of them again.  They hold up surprisingly well.  Nothing post-Tarzan, though.

Josefbugman:
I watched Hunchback a few days back and discovered to my delight that I had been wrong about it being scary, in fact it was awesome.

I know they hold up well, I just don't think that they should be over-estimated in their importance.

That video inspired me to spend this afternoon watching The Jungle Book and Robin Hood.

Don't know if this has been mentioned elsewhere, but Disney is doing another old school animated movie and it might be okay. It's called The Princess and the Frog, and is directed by the same guy that directed The Great Mouse Detective, Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Hercules, and ummm....Treasure Planet. So it has potential, is what I'm saying.
