- DirectorRichard FleischerStarsKirk DouglasJames MasonPaul LukasA ship sent to investigate a wave of mysterious sinkings encounters the advanced submarine, the Nautilus, commanded by Captain Nemo.This film is a perfect example of Disney at it's best. The film contains a great story based on a classic Jules Verne novel, a cast containing three of the biggest stars in Hollywood, amazing underwater photography, and it is probably the only time you'll ever hear Kirk Douglas sing.
- DirectorByron HaskinStarsBobby DriscollRobert NewtonBasil SydneyThe treasure seeking adventures of young Jim Hawkins and pirate captain Long John Silver.You'd think this film would be better remembered simply for the fact that it was the first live-action film ever to come out of the Disney corporation, as well as Robert Newton's iconic portrayal of Long John Silver.
- DirectorRoger AllersRob MinkoffStarsMatthew BroderickJeremy IronsJames Earl JonesLion prince Simba and his father are targeted by his bitter uncle, who wants to ascend the throne himself.This is a very enjoyable film with a creative plot that is inspired by the classic Shakespearean tragedy "Hamlet". There are also some decent songs and a great cast.
- DirectorJon TurteltaubStarsNicolas CageJay BaruchelAlfred MolinaA protege of the magician Merlin must train his teacher's successor - an introverted but resourceful physics prodigy - in the art of sorcery to prevent the return of Morgana le Fay.This was a fun movie. While the idea of a wizards and fantasy happening in the modern world is nothing new (see Harry Potter), this film manages to put a creative twist on the concept in the form of an unusual combination between science and magic.
