Decide the Ultimate Disney Movie


I decided it would be fun to have a Disney/March Madness-esque tournament with the 63 movies in the Disney Masterpiece and Pixar filmography. The films have been divided into four regions: 1937-1955 release dates, 1959-1992 release dates, 1994-Present release dates, and Pixar/computer animated (as opposed to hand-drawn, or in the case of 'Tangled' made to look hand-drawn).

I seeded the films based on critical success and general popularity. My own personal feelings did not enter the equation with the exception of awarding 'Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs' the inevitable first round bye that comes with being one film short of an even 64.

Because the best team does not always win in the NCAA tournament, the films that get the most votes will not necessarily advance. I will use a random number generator to determine the winner based on the percentage of votes. If a film receives 80% of the votes, it will have an 80% chance of advancing. In other words, if you vote for a film, it has a chance to win.

There is no criteria for voting. Vote for your favorite. Vote for the one you've seen versus the one you haven't. Vote for the shorter name. It's up to you. I will continue to update the brackets and the polls as the 'tournament' progresses. You can vote for each once per day so please keep visiting!
