but--it's not a feature-length animated feature. Song of the South had animation and live action, and they're not on the list...and Mary poppins, so Dear to my heart, and Pete's Dragon belong in a category of their own.

The list is one made by Disney (the company, I mean, of course) for their own marketing purposes. There is plenty of non-animation in "Saludos Amigos," yet it's on the list (and it's so short that it barely rates as a feature). Given that, I'm surprised that "The Reluctant Dragon" isn't on there. ("Song of the South," of course, is a title that the Disney people are trying to pretend doesn't exist, unfortunately...otherwise I would think there's plenty enough animation in it to have allowed its inclusion.)

On the other hand, some recent all-animated titles that one would think would be on there don't seem to make the cut: "A Goofy Movie," for one.

When you get right down to it, Disney is all about marketing ploys. After all, if these "timeless classics" are so crucial to everyone, why are the best of them only released for a limited time every ten years or so?

To make people run out and buy them, of course.
