| rdfs:comment | - The Disney Animated Canon is the name given to the series of Disney theatrical animated feature films since 1937. While the majority of the canon are original, five are sequels: The Three Caballeros, The Rescuers Down Under, Fantasia 2000, Winnie the Pooh and Wreck-It Ralph 2. Wreck-It Ralph 2, and Gigantic are upcoming films, while Disney is also working on an untitled film for a November 25, 2020 release and a sequel to Frozen.
- The main animated films produced by the Disney studios. In 1937, Walt Disney released the first feature-length animated film in the English-speaking world. (However, it wasn't, as many claim, the first feature-length animated film ever. Foreign examples predating Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs include Argentina's El Apóstol in 1917, Germany's The Adventures of Prince Achmed in 1926, and Egypt's Mich Mich Effendi in 1935.)

This category does not include Pixar productions, nor does it include every animated feature released by Disney (such as those created by DisneyToon Studios, Direct to Video Sequels, or animated films made under a different banner, such as The Nightmare Before Christmas). There don't seem to be any hard-and-fast rules as to which movies get to be part of the canon and which don't, but generally, the canon films are made by the Disney feature animation unit (live-action/animation hybrids like Mary Poppins tend not to count unless the animation is the bulk of the film). The Other Wiki has a set of lists for both the canon and non-canon films. See also Disney Princess, Enchanted (a possible Affectionate Parody of Disney's own films), Kingdom Hearts, a video game series which also seems to follow the rule of only using canonical characters from nearly all of these films (and then some!), or House of Mouse which represents almost every canonical movie (and then some!) with at least a cameo appearance. Who Framed Roger Rabbit? and The Nightmare Before Christmas were both produced and released by Disney under its Touchstone Pictures banner (The latter's 3D rereleases were under the Disney banner). Compare the works of former Disney animator Don Bluth, as well as the two feature length animated films made by Fleischer Studios. For notable Disney staff, go here.
