This is a challenge that everyone should try. It consists on a bracket of movies that has different stages of the Disney movies. In  the upper-left corner there are the "Old School" movies, containing movies from 1940's to 1980's, such as Fantasia, Bambi, Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Peter Pan, 101 Dalmatians, The Rescuers, and The Little Mermaid. On the next leg, there are the "Millennial Classics" movies. This one has movies from the 1990's, specially for the kids who borned in the late 1980's and middle 1990's. The picks are: Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, The Lion King, Pocahontas, Toy Story, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Mulan, and A Bug's Life.

On the other hand, in the upper-right corner, there are the "Toon 2K" movies for the 2000's generation, until 2009. There are a lot of Pixar movies that have been a hit. This selection contains movies as Monsters, Inc., Lilo & Stitch, Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Cars, Ratatouille, Wall-E, and The Princess and the Frog. Finally, in the lower-right corner, the last list of movies is called "For the Kids Today." This just contains 3 years of Disney movies since 2010 to the present, but still are great titles. Beginning with Toy Story 3, then Tangled, Brave, Wreck-It Ralph, Frankenweenie, Planes, Frozen, and ending with Monsters University.

Pixar Association with Disney

Pixar Animation Studios, or simply Pixar, is an American computer animation film studio based in Emeryville, California. Pixar has produced fourteen feature films, beginning with Toy Story (1995), and its most recent being Monsters University (2013). All of the films have received both critical and financial success, with the notable exception being Cars 2, which, while commercially successful, received substantially less praise than Pixar's other productions. All fourteen films have debuted with CinemaScore ratings of at least "A-", indicating a very positive reception with audiences.

As it is established before, there are fourteen feature films. Here is the list: 

-Toy Story (1995)
-A Bug's Life (1998)
