The Lion King is the best Disney movie of all time. Period.

Also, Trainspotting warped my little adolescent mind when I first watched it. Me and my siblings are still to prone to shouting "I need a hit!!" whenever we smoke a joint or w/e.

That's a difficult point to argue against although I'd put Aladdin right up there with it. Although I may be biased as I have fond memories of both as they both came out when I first started dating my GF (now wife) when we were both in HS.

We also bought a ton of Lion King merchandise (blankets, pillows, stuffed animals) for our first daughter. In fact, we still have almost all of it today.

I would have to say Pleasantville is one of my favorite movies and I wish it had more votes.
