This is a ranking of all of Disney's theatrically released films. I'm going to give my quick thoughts on each film. Some might go into rants but for the most part it'll be small. At the end the day, this is my opinion on the ranking and the films so let's get started.

59. Chicken Little (2005)

This is definitely Disney's worst film, without a doubt. I used to love this film as a kid. I watched it all the time. Sang the songs, watched all the behind the scenes videos and music videos' etc. I ate this up. But after getting older, watching films with quality, re-watching this was such a painful experience. I couldn't even finish it. Everything about this movie is wrong. The characters are awful. The only good character is Fish Out of Water because I thought he was adorable and he didn't speak. Chicken Little's dad is he worst dad not only in animated films but in films in general. How do you not believe your son when he tells you what is going down and act like you're ashamed of him and the only time you give him love is when he won a freaking baseball game. The story is all over the place. Going from a underdog story, to a baseball movie, to an alien invasion. Huh?! Thank god Meet the Robinsons came out afterwards cause this was a major low point in Disney's history.

58. Home on the Range (2004)

Home on the Range isn't as bad as I thought it was going to be, but it ain't great either. Honesty it's an okay movie which is sad because I can see the potential there but the story and characters are keeping it from being good.

57. The Black Cauldron (1985)

This movie is boring as shit and the only reason it's above Home and CL is because I like the Horned King as a villian and I like Eilonwy. But besides that the story is nothing to work with and other characters are uninteresting and boring.

56. Melody Time (1948)

My favorite in this is Once Upon a Winter Time. I love the look of it because Mary Blair has this interesting style that is simplistic and stylized at the same time,...oh yea there's other shorts...there okay too.

55. Make Mine Music (1946)

Second package film on this list and it's better then Melody Time but not that much. My favorite short is the last segment and I like it because of how depressing it is. I won't spoli ot but yikes dog.

54. Saludos Amigos (1942)

53. The Three Caballeros (1944)

These two films might as well be the same movie. TTC is technically a sequel to Saludos but I think these movies are the same. I really like Donald's relationship with Jose Carioca and Panchito Pistoles. I wish Disney used them more but for whatever reason they don't. the movies themselves are fun. The live action/animation hybrid was used to great affect and made these films stand out from the other package films.
