All 52 Walt Disney Animated Classics: Ranked From Worst To Best

3. Pinocchio (1940)

Pinocchio

I know it sounds cheesy, but here is the film that told you what can happen 'When You Wish Upon a Star' and introduced us to the power of wishes and magic that would become trademark in Disney films for years and years to come. We are all Pinocchio. We all had to grow up and face the temptations of life and adulthood.

Pinocchio showed us that if we were to become good people, we were going to make mistakes and screw things up from time to time - it is a natural occurrence in life. Pinocchio was the second-ever Disney animated feature and it was a great follow up to Snow White that showed that feature length animated films were not a gimmick. Who doesn't have their personal own Jiminy Cricket as their conscience, hm?
