I'm more into just about anything animated, so my list is absolutely biased against most any live action film:

• Prince of Egypt ( Pixar's last good film before they started flying off a cliff, in my opinion )

• An American Tail ( Fivek Goes West as well, but the first one is definitely better )

• The Land Before Time ( specifically movies 1 & 5 since they're my favorites of the overdone franchise )

• Secret of NIMH

I can't think of any others off the top of my head that aren't your standard 1970s animated Robin Hood ( the dosney one ) or Zootopia, but I can't say I'd put them up there despite how much I adore those movies.
