Now that I have Disney+, I should be able to find some new favorites to add to my list.
Mind you, I am giving Bonkers a fair shake and I think I understand why it's not considered nostalgia worthy.

I remember seeing that list on Facebook, you clearly put a lot of thought into it.
Anyway, here's a good Top 10 list from WatchMojo.com:

"I really enjoyed the flowers that would often comment on your actions in the level; they were often very funny. This is one of my favorites only because I assume most people won't see the punchline because they'll be too busy running past it:
(Mario is dodging some sliding ice blocks when the flower comments)
Flower: It's safe here!
(Mario hides with the flower as a few ice blocks slide past)
Flower: I... didn't mean you should hang out." --Hey, who's the hero here?, the Wiiviewer's review of Super Mario Bros. Wonder for the Switch

I am happy to confirm that fact, people in the US can still see 101 Dalmatians: the Series on Disney+.
And I can confirm what I previously said: the series still holds up really well!

Okay guys, I am now going to give my rationale following my thoughts on the Animated Films of 2024:
Orion and the Dark This movie just sounds very familiar, like as Belchic says, a rewrite of Monsters, Inc. I guess because that movie is over 20 years old, we are due for an update on this material. I don't think I'll go out of my way to see it though.
The Tiger's Apprentice Coincidence that amidst some heightened international tensions we are getting something that sounds like a way to appease a country we are not on good terms with.
Kung Fu Panda 4 I have loved all three of the previous movies, so I am going to definitely see this one. It does sound like an appropriate end for this franchise until we get the inevitable revamp. Plus, I'm looking forward to seeing Zhen in action.
The Ark and the Aardvark Being that this is a retelling of Noah's Ark from the animals' perspective, I may like this one or I may not. We'll see.
Fixed I do have a fondness for mature cartoons and being that this is from Genndy Tartovsky, I hope he's learned from his experience on Hotel Transylvania. The story sounds all kinds of F'd up though.
The Garfield Movie I am a Garfield fan, but I'm just being realistic on this one and say it may not be that great. It takes a lot of padding to turn something like a comic strip into a movie. The story does sound like a rewrite of Garfield on the Town, and it may not have the same emotional impact. So, I have my doubts.
Inside Out 2 I did very much like the first Inside Out and I am interested to see how Riley's maturity into being a teenager is going to unfold.
Saving Bikini Bottom: The Sandy Cheeks Movie I am a fan of SpongeBob SquarePants and this movie should be fun.
The Day the Earth Blew Up I know from past experiences that turning some 7 minute shorts and turn it into a movie is not easy. The WB has a tendency to be indecisive with their IPs, if what they do with the DC comic book heroes is an indication. So, not getting my hopes up.
Despicable Me 4 I am a fan of the Despicable Me/Minions franchise but I will admit I'm nervous about this movie. I felt that by Despicable Me 3 this franchise had run its course, and while I did like Minions: the Rise of Gru I said in my review that it felt like by this point this franchise was running on fumes. Hoping for the best but I have a feeling that for the general public this is when Illumination's golden Lamborghini runs out of gas.
Spellbound Given how the controversies surrounding John Lasseter and how bungled Luck turned out, this is a no for me.
Ultraman I'm always up to learn more about the Japanese and I do like robots so I say yes.
Transformers One I'm a Transformers fan and this is a definite yes.
The Wild Robot I don't know too much on this one, but given the above, why not?
Thelma the Unicorn If it's anywhere as good as The Bad Guys (and they share the same author), I'm sold!
Untitled Disney Film Waiting for a title.
Untitled Wallace & Gromit Film Waiting for a title.
That Christmas Christmas is my favorite time of year. I always look for means of being merry and festive, so this one has my attention.
Lord of the Rings: The War of Rohirrim It's J.R.R. Tolkien's book in animation. Need I say more?
Mufasa Being honest, the 2019 remake of The Lion King did not have a chance of outdoing the 1994 masterpiece. Being that it's a prequel to that movie seems excessive but.... okay.

She was Ed Norton's wife Trixie Norton and ultimately served as the model for Betty Rubble. If she lived to October she would have been 100. RIP Joyce Randolph

This is a cool mash-up: a climactic fight from Puss in Boots: the Last Wish with the Crowning Moment of Awesome from Shrek 2!
