Disney movies have provided us with some pretty memorable plot lines.A princess cursed with eternal sleep who can only wake up to a true love's kiss? Classic. A bookish French girl who succumbs to Stockholm syndrome with a little help from a candelabra, a clock, and teapot? Favorite. A mermaid who only dreams of walking, dancing, and combing her hair with a dinglehopper? Unforgettable.
But sometimes, the best Disney moments are those that have nothing to do with the plot. Close your eyes and think back, long ago, to a time when VHS was a current technology. Which scenes did you rewind over and over again?
Whether it's the picture-perfect application of lipstick in Mulan, or the big library reveal from Beauty & the Beast, we all have a quirky Disney soft spot. Grab some pixie dust — let's fly down memory lane.
Cinderella(1950)
If my heart wishes for those sweeping curtains (at 0:25) while I'm fast asleep, will my dream come true?
Beauty and the Beast(1991)
Yes, kids. When you grow up, you'll go on Tinder dates. There might even be dancing. But it won't look anything like this.
101 Dalmatians(1996)
Oh, Rolly. Never change.
Aladdin(1992)
This used to make us giggle. Now, it's like: "Jasmine, we feel you."
Peter Pan(1953)
Who needs Captain Hook or Neverland? We would watch an entire movie of just this.
The Lion King(1994)
Bad hair days aren't just for humans.
The Aristocats(1970)
Is there any other scene from this movie you actually remember?
Mulan(1998)
That eyeliner flick brings honor to us all.
Pocahontas(1995)
Even as kids, this was #LifeGoals.
The Little Mermaid (1989)
We know you tried this.
The Great Mouse Detective(1986)
How many of you asked your parents for this doll? (And that outfit — double bows!)
Lady and the Tramp (1955)
What is it with Disney's obsession with bows? (Not gonna lie — we're into it.)
The Little Mermaid(1989)
If this isn't the most pointless Disney song in existence, I don't know what is. Way to be a no-show, Ariel.
The Hunchback of Notre Dame(1996)
The scene that spawned a million late-'90s Halloween costumes.
Hercules(1997)
A good friend can turn you from zero to hero, just like that.
Beauty and the Beast(1991)
Forget the romance — this scene set very unrealistic apartment expectations.
Dumbo(1941)
Those. Ears.
Snow White and the Seven Dwarves(1937)
The way that dough slides off perfectly is just so satisfying.
Sleeping Beauty (1959)
When you try to fix your outfit, and it's just not happening.
Alice in Wonderland(1951)
What, me? Pretty? Go on.
Aladdin(1992)
Honestly, any scene with Genie is worth remembering.
