Which Disney movies are based off of legends/fairy/folk tales?
One of my friends keeps complaining about some movies that have come out over the past few years just being Disney knock-off's. I've explained several times that a lot of the movies are not original, but based off of fairy tales and folk tales. I'd like to be able to back myself up a little, but i'd like a longer list of what ones are based on stories, as I only know of a few.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
Well... Many Disney movies are based off of fairy tales and books. However, many are original stories, and some of the real old ones are based off of real events. Ummm... The following movies are either based off of a fairy tale or based off of a book.
Snow White (German Fairy Tale)
Pinocchio (Italian Children's Novel)
Dumbo (Storyline Written by Helen Aberson)
Bambi (Book by Austrian Author)
Cinderella (Fairy Tale by Charles Perrault)
Treasure Island (Novel by Robert Louis Stevenson)
Alice in Wonderland (Novel by Louis Carroll)
Peter Pan (Play by J. M. Barrie)
Sleeping Beauty (Fairy Tale by Charles Perrault)
The Shaggy Dog (Story by Felix Salten)
One Hundred and One Dalmatians (Novel by Dodie Smith)
The Sword and the Stone (Novel by T.H. White)
The Jungle Book
The Aristocats
Robin Hood
The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh
The Rescuers
The Fox and the Hound
The Black Cauldren
The Great Mouse Detective
Oliver & Company
The Little Mermaid
The Rescuers
Beauty and the Beast
The Great Mouse Detective
Pocahontas
The Hunchback of Notre Dame

I got a little lazy after I realized how many were based off of something else and stopped putting what they were from. This isn't even all of the movies that were based off of something else. I just put down the ones that are considered to be "classics."
