Mulan

Barry Cook, Tony Bancroft · 1998

Mulan follows a young woman who takes her ailing father's place in an Imperial army conscription by posing as a man, running that story through the machinery of a late-90s Disney musical. Directed by Barry Cook and Tony Bancroft and produced largely at Disney's Florida studio, it paired a $90 million budget with $304 million in worldwide takings and the Annie Award for Best Animated Feature.

Robin Hood

Wolfgang Reitherman · 1973

Wolfgang Reitherman's 1973 Robin Hood turns the English outlaw tale into a musical fox-and-wolf caper, the first Disney feature made without Walt Disney's guidance and the first built entirely around animal stand-ins for a human cast. Cheaply made and visibly recycled from earlier Disney films, it survived mixed reviews at release to become a durable cult favourite.
