One look at the temperature will tell you that we're under the intense heat of the Summer of the Disney Renaissance! As we once more need your help to figure out the next Disney classic we'll be covering in addition to all our regular releases like Talking Simpsons, What A Cartoon, Talking Futurama, or TalKing of the Hill. Our  $10 premium podcasts can't be published without your input, and we'll need your help to decide what we'll be covering in July 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 the continuation of our Summer of the Disney Renaissance! Just like in 2021, 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 previous polls!

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

Oliver & Company (1988) - Dickens is rewritten with the hottest celebs of the 1980s as Billy Joel & Bette Midler sing and dance as dogs!

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 colored fully 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 June 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!

Ah, Beauty and the Beast, the only Disney film of which I have all the songs memorized and annoy my friends by finding the slimmest excuses to sing verses of when we're hanging out. The real treasure among these four.

Frank Grimes

Voted for the first animated film ever to be nominated for best picture

Azuresquirrel

God I really really hope that Beauty and the Beast finally makes it through this time, I'm amazed the number of times it's lost in these polls. Yes other movies have more messy and interesting production histories or it's fun to discuss reactions when they're not universally beloved, but to me this is forever The Disney Movie top to bottom.

Paul Serna

Beauty and the Beast is the best film on this list, but I'd love to see a deep dive into a more obscure property like Oliver and Company

meldriccc

Pocahontas! Make everyone suffer!

Joe Hodgson

Oliver and Company is the first film I saw in a theater so I'm selfishly voting for it. It's also historically interesting for essentially providing the blueprint for the films that followed, most of which were superior products. And "Why Should I Worry?" is still a banger.

Eyal Shachar

I feel one Beauty and Beast has had so many deep dives and coverage already I’d love to hear more about a movie that isn’t as widely known. However if you do end up going with BandB I can’t recommend highly enough the documentary “ Howard” about Howard Ashman a lot of great behind the scenes of early Disney renaissance

Dan Rosalina

The bad films have made for some of my favourite podcasts, so I'd love if Pocahontas or the stump of a film that is Rescuers Down Under won.

John-Charles Holmes

FINALLY it's B&B's time to shine! After we made the boys suffer through all those horrible movies last summer, let's try and have a lil fun this year, eh?

Blake R.

I do want to hold out hope for Pocahontas one day just for the entertainment value

Gerardo Peralta

We need to suggest a katzenburg jingle. Seeing how he has a habit of popping up in so many what a cartoon movies

ShyRanger

Looks like Beauty and the Beast is gonna win makes sense, but... guys, do me a favor and try not the bog the podcast with mentioning how bad the live action version is? I'm not defending it, but that's what was making Lion King podcast a bit unlistenable. Yes the new version is bad, I think we got it after the 15th mention lol.

SilkiePJ

Let's go Beauty! We have to learn the origins of James Baxter!

Boomer Spacely

All yall thirsty for the hits. 2023 Renaissance summer is going to be all B sides and it'll be disappointing if they are all missed

WaitWhat

Voting for Rescuers. Love B&B but that giant bird is taking up much more mental real estate due to all the times I watched that film.

John Harrison

Vote for the giant bird you cowards.

Alex Irish

Everyone really wants Rescuers to rescue them, huh?

Harry Thornton

Since you've already done Aladdin and the Lion King, and are about to do The Little Mermaid, now's the time to complete the "Big Four" of '90s Disney: Voting for Beauty and the Beast. Though personally I think Rescuers and Pocahontas podcasts would be fun to listen to later down the line.

Tanner Methven

I would love to see you guys eventually cover all of these movies, but…let’s be real, as an animation podcast you GOTTA talk about Beauty and the Beast.

SomeBloke

I keep voting for Beauty and the Beast and I’m not going to stop now.

Seth

Let’s go Down Under on this WACM

Mr. Animation Enthusiast

Pocahontas is such a dumpster fire that I'll kill for if you somehow cover it. There's never any such thing as shitting on Hollywood's centrism.

P.B. and Shelly

Honestly down for Billy Joel: The Cartoon

Zorro Buena Onda

I kind of wish patreon would show the results after i vote, it makes me a bit hopeless that i already know what movie is gonna win
