How can it already be time for a Summer of the Disney Renaissance when it feels like 2022 just began? We're still recovering from Roger Rabbit! Well, it's true, and we need your help to figure it out once again because, in addition to all our regular releases like Talking Simpsons, What A Cartoon, Talking Futurama, or TalKing of the Hill, we are planning out another of our  $10 premium podcasts, and we'll need your help to decide what we'll be covering in June 2022.

For those of you who are new to the Talking Simpsons Patreon, WELCOME. Also, you should know that once a month we release the What A Cartoon Movie! podcast, an extra-long discussion about an animated feature film, exclusively for our $10+ Patreon subscribers. And when we open up the voting for each month's subject, we want all the $5 subscribers to also have a chance to be heard too, so those subscribers can help pick episodes they might enjoy down the line!

Our next 2022 poll is beginning another season of what we did the year before: The Summer of the Disney Renaissance! Just like last summer, we're going to do a trio of What A Cartoon Movie podcasts about the late '80s to late '90s era of Disney theatrical animation, covering some of the runner-ups of last year's polls!

So here are the four Neo Disney Classics you'll be voting on:

The Little Mermaid (1989) - The musical retelling of the classic fairy tale that entertained many poor, unfortunate souls in the end of the '80s!

The Rescuers Down Under (1990) - The Australian sequel that is full of famous people but is most known to animation fans for being the first one Disney did digitally!

Beauty And The Beast (1991) - The tale as old as time that took Disney musicals and animation to new heights, including a Best Picture Oscar nomination!

Pocahontas (1995) - Katzenberg's prestige film that is more famous for how it whiffed on a problematic story that's kinda-sorta based on history!

So please, make your choice known before the poll closes on the night of May 7! And thanks as always for your continued support of our podcasts—we couldn't keep doing all our super-deep movie podcasts without you!

I’m going for Little Mermaid! It’s the first of the Renaissance and a movie I’ve been meaning to watch for a while now

Mike Mariano

I’m happy with any of these except Beauty and the Beast because you already covered The Critic pilot episode and that’s basically the same thing.

SomeBloke

It was between Mermaid and Beast for me, and I've got to go with the latter if only because it's maybe the only film to actually break the Oscars.

ShyRanger

Hoping for Beauty and the Beast, mainly after you guys mentioned James Baxter worked on it. I've only heard about this guy in terms of "he's amazing" but looking forward to a deeper dive. I'd also love to hear if there's any outcry to when this was at the Oscars, if there was any.

Love Beauty and the Beast more but feel like getting the history of Little Mermaid and the start of the Renaissance would be super interesting. Plus who doesn’t love some Buddy Hackett as scuttle?

Dylan

Voting for Rescuers Down Under. Its the one I know the least about but visually it looks good as hell

To Boldly Joe... Moore

As always, I'm voting for the earliest movie. Because you can't spell chronological without... logical. ^_^

Kiaayo

I doubt it'll make it considering the competition, but I still have a soft spot for Rescuers Down Under.

April

I hope Mulan shows up at one point!

SilkiePJ

Beauty and the Beast would be the perfect follow up after Roger Rabbit. The James Baxter of it all!

MilesRose

Rescuers for that roo and Jake~!

Frank Grimes

Poor unfortunate souls who don't vote for little mermaid

Nathanial Miller

Yes, let's hear about the wildly underrated movie, THE LITTLE MERMAID we know so little about this OBSCURE film. The rescuers are far too renowned and for sure NOT effectively lost to time.

Joseph

I totally had never grokked that Rescuers Down Under slotted in between Little Mermaid and Beauty & the Beast!

Dylan (batmanboy11) Freitag

Throwing my hat in for Beauty & the Beast even though I see that it's already not gonna win this one again seemingly lmao

Harry Thornton

Little Mermaid, it's the perfect follow-up to Roger Rabbit.

David Chávez

Had the Rescuers Down Under clamshell as a kid. George C. Scott tries to murder a child with alligators and John Candy best role on 1990??? Hope this wins, we need a history deep dive into the US Aussie fanaticism of the late 80s

KaiserBeamz

Tempted to vote Rescuers Down Under because that's a personal favorite I've seen hundreds of times. But I gotta go with Little Mermaid for history's sake.

Rudy De La Torre

Rescuers high numbers = Too many bros in this Patreon

David

After all this Disney we need more Miyazaki films. Would love to hear you guys do Porco Rosso

Pumpkinbob

Voted Rescuers and was pleasantly surprised to see it was as high as it was when I did honestly. I expected it to be second to last at best.

Alex Irish

For once, a WAC Movie poll isn't voting on the worst choice possible

glowstickjuice

Voted for Beauty and the Beast. Sorry Henry, did my best. 🤷

Seth

Down Under!
