The Disney Challenge AKA Project Disney

This month sees the theatrical release of Tangled, Disney's take on the Rapunzel Fairytale. With this release, there has been quite a big deal being made about the fact that this is the 50th full length animated feature from the House of Mouse.



So, after a discussion in work today with Darren (who incidentally has a new blog) we decided that this was a challenge I could not let pass. I am going to watch all the films in release order (below) and blog about each one. It's not a time challenge, it is just a wee project to further increase my animation addiction.

I suspect nos 6 - 11 could pose a major stumbling block quite early on.
