Well, I was asking this because I would like to know how many people here considered the first movie as a classic, but I'm one of the people who considered it as one just like other Disney movies from the 90s.

In terms of things like its reputation over the decades and also the style in which it is animated, yes. It uses the traditional animation techniques that the Disney company fine tuned over the company's lifetime, and was animated at the main studio too.

The only reason I might be slightly against calling it one of the "Disney Classics" is because Walt himself was not around for it. In that sense, I'd say that the classics end at The Jungle Book or The Aristocats (debatable due to certain technicalities) but that'd be my only reason.

Overall, I'd say it qualifies as a Disney Classic. :)

I don't think you'll find many people who would say no. Especially on this club.
