For example: Fantasyland - Peter Pan, Snow White, Pinocchio, Dumbo, Mr Toad, Alice in Wonderland, The Sword in the Stone, Sleeping Beauty (the castle) . . .
Originally Posted By FerretAfros Tomorrowland has Toy Story (2 technically), Honey I Shrunk the Kids, and soon to be Finding Nemo as well. I can't think of anything for Main Street, but I'm sure there is something. Adventureland has Aladdin and Tarzan (you could also include the Indy movies if you like). NOS has the POTC and HM movies, along with Nightmare for certain times of the year. Critter Country has Song of the South, The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, and kind of the Country Bears movie. All I can think of for Frontierland is Toy Story and Home on the Range. Fantasyland also has some more things in Storybookland, but the only one that I can think of off hand is Cinderella, since most of them show up elsewhere in the park. Toontown is home to the old shorts, so I guess you could watch those, along with Who Framed Roger Rabbit (how old are the kids?) and Chip n Dale Rescue Rangers. For DCA, The Little Mermaid has the carousel, A Bug's Life has Flik's area, there's the Muppet movies for MuppetVision, Twilight Zone for TOT, and Monsters Inc for the ride as well. There are also lots of Pixar characters walking around in that area, but I can't think of any other permanent attractions tied to movies in DCA. I hope this helps you along the way.

Originally Posted By threeundertwo Thanks, this helps. The kids will be 10 and 9 and 9. I'm adding Aladdin, for the show in DCA. Are the Brother Bear characters still there? Is "Third Man on the Mountain" on dvd? I've never seen it.

Originally Posted By FerretAfros I've never heard of Third Man on the Mountain being on DVD (or even VHS for that matter), so I would be fairly surprised if you could find it. Aladdin is also a good bet, since there is not only the show in DCA, but also the storytelling in Adventurland, and Agrabbah, the Cave of Wonders, and the rose arches in Storybookland. I never really noticed how many times that one movie showed up in DLR. I believe that they still have the Brother Bear stuff in the Redwood Creek area, as well.
Originally Posted By DlandDug Characters from Brother Bear are still featured at the Redwood Creek Challenge Trail. The original request was for ANIMATED features that inspired theme park attractions. Most of these have been mentioned, although I am not sure I saw Sleeping Beauty Castle, Casey jr. Circus Train from Dumbo, or the dinosaurs in the Disneyland Railroad which were inspired by the Rite of Spring segment in Fantasia. Also to be found in Storybook Land is the Little Mermaid, as well as the short subjects the Three Little Pigs and Lullabye Land.

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids Indiana Jones Lilo and Stitch (can you still talk to Stitch at Innoventions?) Lullaby Land (short) Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh Mary Poppins Mickey and the Beanstalk (isn't that the giant who has a quilt in the Storybookland Canal boats?) Monsters Inc. Mr. Toad Peter Pan Pinocchio Pirates of the Caribbean Pollyanna Sleeping Beauty Snow White Song of the South Star Wars Tarzan The Little Mermaid The Old Mill (short) The Sword in the Stone Third Man on the Mountain Three Little Pigs (short) Toy Story 2 Who Framed Roger Rabbit? I'm skipping the tv tie-ins like Chip and Dale and Gadget's go-coaster. We probably wont watch that awful HM movie.
Originally Posted By FerretAfros I'm also not sure if Stitch is in Innoventions. I haven't been in there in several years, so I really have no idea. I was thinking Home on the Range for the Big Thunder Ranch, which was themed to the Little Patch of Heaven for a while. I'm not sure exactly when that was, or if the name will be returning when they reopen after removing the Reindeer Roundup stuff. Also, Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King have floats in the parade (along with the previously mentioned Pinocchio, Alice, and Little Mermaid) if you want to add those movies. Using the parades, DCA also has the Incredibles in BPB (along with previously mentioned Toy Story-although this may be inspired by the original, Monsters Inc., and A Bug's Life). I haven't seen the Electrical parade since it was in DL and even then I can't remember a time that I wasn't just passing by it, so I'm not entirely sure what all that includes. I know it has a Pete's Dragon float, along with ones from several other films that have already been mentioned (Snow White, Alice, Pinnochio, Dumbo, Cinderella, Peter Pan). Also, nothing from the Animation exhibit has been mentioned, but I assume there are several other films represented there. The main areas linked to specific films are the Sorcerer's Workshop (Fantasia, Ursula's Grotto (the Little Mermaid), and the Beast's Library (Beauty and the Beast). I know that the lobby area cycles through several more recent films, but I don't know which ones (all I saw was the Hunchback portion) or if they would be counted for this.

Glad to find an excuse to slip Beauty and the Beast in there. Woefully underrepresented, if you ask me. I have to think there was something for Frontierland before Toy Story and HOTR. Pocahantas perhaps? I'm going to add Davy Crockett, even though it breaks my "no tv shows" rule.
Originally Posted By Dabob2 In Ursula's Grotto they have animated clips you can substitute in your own voice for. We've used Bambi, so there's another film not on the list yet.
Originally Posted By DlandDug The Old Mill is, indeed, represented in Storybook Land. Frontierland wasn't really based on any film in particular, although there were many western themed films/TV programs around at the time. Disney had Davy Crockett (of course), along with Zorro, Westward Ho the Wagons, and Swamp Fox, among others. The Animation lobby in DCA is chock-a-block with films, including: Lady and the Tramp Toy Story Atlantis Hercules Emperor's New Groove Mulan Pocohontas Bug's Life and so on. Of course, this is all DCA. So if THAT park is included, we have all of Bug's Land for A Bug's Life (along with It's Tough to be a Bug!), Ariels' Grotto for the Little Mermaid, and those pesky Muppets in 3D. (I believe Monsters, Inc. is already in the mix.) Funny that a park that did NOT want attractions based on Disney characters has ended up with so many! Next: Disney films represented in Fantasmic!

I don't remember Hercules, Atlantis or Emperor's New Groove in the animation building, but maybe I'm just forgetting. And aren't there some other random characters on the boat in Fantasmic? And yes, I'm counting the heads in Pooh for the Country Bears.
Originally Posted By FerretAfros Most of the characters that are on the boat that I remember are in the show in other places. Some additional ones inculde Mary Poppins and the chimmney sweeps, Aladdin, Jasmine, Genie, Cinderella and prince, Jane, Terk, (can't remember if Tarzan himself is there), Horace Horsecollar, Clarabelle Cow, Woody, and Buzz Lightyear. I can't think of any others off the top of my head, but I will go hunt for some pictures.
Originally Posted By threeundertwo I can't believe there aren't any other references to Bambi. If I included shops, I guess that would add Nightmare before Christmas, and probably CARS stuff is at autopia (I'm guessing)
