Maybe it makes a difference when you first see them. The Disney Robin Hood is not my favorite anything, but I won't rip on it here. Disney's Alice is interesting in some ways, though as an adaptation, it's an early hint of how far they'd go in hoking up the source material. I waited years to see it, and during those years I gradually decided I preferred the original book -- but my interest in it stems from my interest in the Disney movie. Go figure.

Funny coincidence: While I was sitting in the dentist's chair for a half hour today, I was listening to a 1951 Lux Radio Theater version of Disney's Alice, with most of the original cast and the songs. I even thought of this group, because there was a commercial break where they talked to Adrianna Caselotti, the voice of Snow White, and she sang a snippet of one of the songs from her great starring role with a Lux plug in the lyrics. (The show is available at archive.org, but not today. They're just grinding and getting nowhere, so I can't even give a link. Sorry.)
