Walt Disney sure did a positive number on my imagination, I mean growing up in Nigeria amidst military dictatorship, insecurity, political instability, bad governance and all that (things have changed for the better now) 4pm everyday was the time we got transfixed and zombified by our TV screens for some epic cartoons when we could, I'm talking Voltron, Danger Mouse, Tom & Jerry, Mickey Mouse, Silver Hawks, Captain Planet, Atom Ant and a whole list of others made our day.
Life they say moves too fast, slow down & relive those memories and let your kids in on our golden age before cartoons got, shall i say, way too unbelievable, In this day and age its hard to recollect most of them so get your downloads ready, iv got you covered.
Here's a list of My top 11 (10 wasn't enough) Disney Classics:
The Lion King
Pinocchio
Hunchback of Notre Dame
Aladdin
Beauty & The Beast
The Great Mouse Detective
Hercules
Peter Pan
