Probably Summer Magic or In Search of the Castaways.

If we are talking live action with animation combined it is hands down Pete's Dragon!

Either Pirates of the Carribean...or Bedknobs and Broomsticks.

(Yes, I know B& B has animation in it, but honestly they could lose that whole sequence, and I wouldn't miss it!)

Pirates of The Carriebean with National treasure second and Mary Poppins third, Lastly who ever said Bead knobs and broomsticks, I just seen it the other night and love the Germans getting the dickens beat out of them by the nights in armor with the locomotion spell, classic.

All the POTC movies. And to think I hadn't even seen any of them until a few months before the theatrical release of "At World's End". :hammer:

OK, everyone, the definitive statement in Disney live action: Old Yeller!!

That movie had such an effect on me growing up... and from the many, many references in pop culture, I wasn't the only one. It really did the coming-of-age and boy-and-his-dog genres spot-on!

Heck, it's even mentioned in a modern country song, "Tough Little Boys" by Gary Allen. Great song:

Well I never once
Backed down from a punch
Well I'd take it square on the chin
But I found out fast
That bullies just laugh
And we've got to stand up to them

So I didn't cry when I got a black eye
As bad as it hurt, I just grinned
But when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again.

Scared me to death
When you took your first steps
And I'd fall every time you fell down
Your first day of school, I cried like a fool
And I followed your school bus to town

Well I didn't cry, when Old Yeller died
At least not in front of my friends
But when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again

Well I'm a grown man
But as strong as I am
Sometimes its hard to believe
How one little girl, with little blonde curls
Could totally terrify me

If you were to ask, my wife would just laugh
She'd say "I know all about men
How tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again"

Well I know one day, I'll give you away
But I'm gonna stand there and smile
But when I get home, and I'm all alone
Well, I'll sit in your room for a while

Well I didn't cry when Old Yeller died
At least not in front of my friends
But when tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again

When tough little boys grow up to be dads
They turn into big babies again

And, of course, the Confederate Railroad song, "She Never Cried," and the list goes on...

Great movie. I wish Disney would re-release it into theatres. I think it would still do wonders today.
