Disney LogoAs one of the undisputed legendary brands in entertainment, Disney has made its mark on every generation of movie-lovers dating back to the 1940s. What’s even more impressive is that a great deal of their movies (consisting mostly of reimagined fairy tales) have crossed generations to appeal to a wide age range. From growing up with loveable rags to riches characters, to being inspired to believe your dreams can come true – you’re sure to find at least one Disney movie on most people’s list of classics.
