00:00 "Butler, chef, theme song guy."
00:05 "Oh yeah!"
00:07 Welcome to Ms. Mojo, and today we're counting down our picks for Disney movies that make
00:11 us feel a little bit better about life.
00:14 "If we listen to each other's heart."
00:19 Number 10.
00:20 Moana.
00:21 Let's start on the island of Motunui.
00:23 Moana is the daughter of the chief and gets chosen by the ocean to restore the heart of
00:27 Te Fiti.
00:28 "The light of the night and the sea, she calls me.
00:33 Yes I know, I can't go."
00:39 She has to make an incredible journey across the sea along with the mischievous demigod
00:44 Maui.
00:45 On the way, she finds her true purpose in life and we get to enjoy plenty of catchy
00:48 tunes that don't leave our heads for days.
00:51 "I need three words to tear her argument apart.
00:54 You granny lied."
00:55 "I'd rather be shiny like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck."
01:00 Oh and there's also a flamboyant crab that pays tribute to David Bowie with its fabulousness.
01:06 Moana is the movie that'll make you cry happy tears and perhaps even want to go on a little
01:11 quest of your own.
01:12 "Oh yeah, oh yeah."
01:14 "We are explorers reading every sign.
01:17 We tell the stories of our elders in a never-ending chain."
01:22 "Oh yeah, oh yeah."
01:24 Number 9.
01:25 The Lizzie McGuire Movie
01:35 This film was based on an uber-popular Disney Channel show that many millennials were obsessive
01:40 about.
01:41 In it, Lizzie McGuire goes on an unforgettable adventure to Rome, where she's mistaken for
01:45 a popular singer named Isabella.
01:47 "Isabella?"
01:48 "Huh?
01:49 Okay.
01:50 I was wishing for smooth sailing through high school, but this'll work."
01:57 Lizzie has to work with Isabella's partner Paolo to get ready for an awards show, all
02:01 while pretending she's still just a regular girl who's taking a tour of Rome with her
02:05 class.
02:06 This movie gave birth to an unforgettable soundtrack, along with a feel-good final song
02:10 that will stay on repeat for the rest of our lives.
02:13 "Dreams, it's just a dream.
02:17 I made it."
02:22 Number 8.
02:23 Ratatouille
02:24 "Oh, Gusteau was right.
02:27 Oh, mmm, yeah.
02:30 Amazing.
02:31 Each flavor was totally unique."
02:35 Are you a foodie with a passion for cooking?
02:37 Then Ratatouille is the story for you.
02:39 The movie follows a young rat named Remy who wants to become a chef just like his idol
02:44 Gusteau.
02:45 He ends up working at a restaurant and achieving his dream of making it all the way to the
02:48 top of the culinary world.
02:50 "So let's think this out.
02:52 You know how to cook, and I know how to appear human.
02:58 We just need to work out a system."
02:59 It's not easy work, but Remy's passion and talent for cooking is obvious.
03:04 As you watch this one, make sure you have all the ingredients ready for the Ratatouille
03:08 dish.
03:09 You'll be inspired to make it after you're done.
03:11 "Can I interest you in a dessert this evening?"
03:14 "Don't you always?"
03:15 "Which one would you like?"
03:17 "Surprise me!"
03:20 Number 7.
03:21 Tangled
03:22 "I just wanna see the floating lanterns gleam.
03:23 And with every passing hour, I'm so glad I left my tower.
03:24 Like all you lovely folks, I've got a dream."
03:32 This movie takes us on a journey with a young woman who's brave enough to chase her dreams.
03:37 The story follows Rapunzel, who lives in an isolated tower with her so-called mother,
03:41 a witch who actually kidnapped her at a young age.
03:44 Wishing to learn more about the floating lanterns that mysteriously appear in the sky every
03:48 year on her birthday, Rapunzel runs away with a charming thief named Flynn Rider.
03:53 "And at last I see the light."
03:57 "And it's like the sky is new."
04:02 Along the way, she experiences the world for the first time, forms unique friendships,
04:06 and falls in love.
04:07 The movie has all the components of a feel-good film, complete with an inspiring soundtrack.
04:12 "I finally said yes."
04:15 "Eugene."
04:16 "All right, I asked her."
04:19 Number 6.
04:20 Hercules
04:21 We love a good mythic Greek hero, and Hercules definitely fits the bill.
04:25 This demigod is the son of Zeus, and he's on a mission to become a true hero so he can
04:30 join his father on Olympus.
04:31 "I can go the distance.
04:33 I will face the world.
04:36 Fearless, proud, and strong.
04:38 I will please the gods.
04:40 I can go the distance."
04:42 The movie is action-packed, but it still has time to follow Hercules as he awkwardly tries
04:47 to charm his love interest, Megara.
04:49 This is one of the funniest Disney movies ever made, with an iconic performance from
04:53 James Woods as the eminently quotable villain Hades.
04:57 "Guys, get your titanic rears in gear and kick some Olympian butt!"
05:02 "Whoa, is my hair out?"
05:04 Ultimately, the film's message is that being a hero has nothing to do with your physical
05:08 strength.
05:09 It's about selflessness, compassion, and helping others.
05:13 "I...
05:14 I wish to stay on Earth with her.
05:17 I finally know where I belong."
05:21 Number 5.
05:22 The Muppets
05:23 Imagine being the biggest superfan of the Muppets and getting to join them in a quest
05:26 to save their theater from an evil oil magnate.
05:29 That's precisely what The Muppets movie is all about.
05:32 "It's becoming who you want to be.
05:35 You have to try.
05:37 Please Walter.
05:39 You're my hero."
05:41 Walter, who is a Muppet himself, gets a chance to expose Tex Richman's plans to drill underneath
05:47 the Muppets' theater.
05:49 Together, they manage to defeat the bad guy, and along the way, Walter realizes what truly
05:54 matters in life.
05:55 "Hey Walter, aren't you gonna join us?"
05:56 "Come on, Walter.
05:57 Come on."
05:58 "Yes, yes!"
05:59 "Come on, Walter!"
06:00 "Are you waiting for me?"
06:01 "I'm waiting for you."
06:02 "I'm waiting for you, buddy."
06:03 "Get over there."
06:05 The movie teaches a timeless lesson about setting goals and making them happen with
06:09 teamwork.
06:10 In the words of Kermit, "Life is like a movie.
06:12 Write your own ending."
06:14 "Nothing we can't do.
06:17 The skies are blue and it's me and you and you and you and you and you and you and you
06:22 and... well all of you."
06:24 Number 4.
06:25 A Goofy Movie
06:26 This one is for the angsty teens and their parents.
06:29 "There's this party I have to go to.
06:31 There'll be plenty of time for parties when you're older, Maxie.
06:33 Why, when I was your age, I'd never even been invited to a party.
06:38 Look at me now!"
06:39 Goofy's 14-year-old son Max finds his father's antics embarrassing and doesn't want to become
06:44 anything like him.
06:45 But when their father-son fishing trip becomes the journey of a lifetime, the two finally
06:49 renew their bond and leave us with a tear-jerker happy ending.
06:53 "My Maxie.
06:54 Love.
06:55 Gosh, you're really growing up.
06:58 It happened so fast, I guess I sort of missed it."
07:03 Max's struggles navigating high school and dealing with a slightly eccentric parent are
07:07 totally relatable.
07:08 This movie has it all — a wacky family vacation gone wrong, adolescent drama and teenage love,
07:14 and ultimately, an important life lesson learned.
07:17 "You're doing the right thing, son."
07:19 "Yeah, I know.
07:21 But you'll probably never talk to me again."
07:23 "Well, if she doesn't, maybe she's just not the one for you."
07:28 3.
07:29 Toy Story
07:30 Toys that come to life?
07:31 Yes, please.
07:32 Toy Story has earned its place in the history books as a Disney classic.
07:36 Imagine being someone's favorite toy and watching your human lose interest in you as he grows
07:41 older.
07:42 "Strange things are happening to me."
07:48 That's what happens as Woody, Mr. Potato Head, Slinky Dog, and more welcome an oddly-behaved
07:53 newcomer to Andy's room.
07:55 Toy Story is about true friendships that come in all shapes and sizes.
07:59 "Look, over in that house is a kid who thinks you are the greatest, and it's not because
08:03 you're a Space Ranger, pal.
08:05 It's because you're a toy.
08:07 You are his toy."
08:08 It'll leave you digging out that old toy box and keeping an eye on your toy friends in
08:13 the hopes that they'll come alive when you're not around.
08:15 It's true Disney and Pixar magic.
08:18 "You're flying!"
08:19 "This isn't flying, this is falling with style."
08:22 "To infinity and beyond!"
08:30 2.
08:31 Mary Poppins
08:32 This one is an oldie, but it never goes out of style.
08:36 No matter how old you are, you've heard of the magical nanny that is Mary Poppins.
08:40 "Item one, a cheery disposition.
08:43 I am never cross.
08:45 Item two, rosy cheeks.
08:47 Obviously."
08:48 The story begins with two not-very-well-behaved children who need to find a new nanny.
08:53 Soon, Mary Poppins arrives on the wind.
08:56 But she's not just any ordinary nanny.
08:58 She flies in with a magical bag and adventures galore, along with songs you'll be singing
09:03 for days.
09:04 "Just a spoonful of sugar helps the medicine go down in a most delightful way."
09:12 It's a heartwarming story of finding your imagination and embracing the child within,
09:16 even in the toughest times.
09:18 And we know that supercalifragilisticexpialidocious will stay in your head on repeat.
09:32 Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions.
09:36 Monsters, Inc.
09:37 In Disney, even the monsters have big hearts.
09:40 "Not bad, huh?
09:41 You know, only somebody with perfect comedic timing could produce this much energy in one
09:45 shot."
09:46 "Yeah, and the fact that laughter is ten times more powerful than scream had nothing to do
09:49 with it."
09:51 Pirates of the Caribbean - The Curse of the Black Pearl
09:53 Captain Jack Sparrow will bring a smile to your face.
09:56 "You are without doubt the worst pirate I've ever heard of.
10:00 But you have heard of me."
10:02 Wreck-It Ralph
10:03 The ultimate believe-in-yourself Disney movie.
10:05 "Turns out I don't need a medal to tell me I'm a good guy.
10:09 Because if that little kid likes me, how bad can I be?"
10:17 Newsies - All about doing the right thing and speaking up.
10:21 "Thanks for the advice, Governor.
10:22 Like you said, I still got things to do.

10:57 Number 1 - The Emperor's New Groove
11:10 Emperor Kuzco is an arrogant and selfish protagonist who wants to destroy a village for his own
11:15 personal gain.
11:16 However, his plans are put to a halt when his power-hungry advisor Yzma poisons him
11:21 and turns him into a llama.
11:23 "This is extract of llama!"
11:25 "You know, in my defense, your poisons all look alike.
11:30 You might think about relabeling some of them."
11:32 In this form, Kuzco must overcome his toxic personality and learn humility and teamwork.
11:37 He even joins forces with one of the same villagers whose home he wanted to destroy.
11:41 By the end of the journey, Kuzco turns from a self-absorbed ruler to a selfless and compassionate
11:46 leader who's actually made some new friends.
11:49 "But everybody here can see that a perfect world begins and ends.
