Kirk Cousins asked Twitter what Disney movies he should watch with his kids, so we gave him 10

Kirk Cousins and his family have been on a Disney movie binge recently, and he asked for recommendations. Here are 10 Disney films the Cousins family should watch next

One of the great things about the offseason is that the players get a chance to relax a little bit and just be regular people for a minute. They don’t have to constantly be “on” and in the public eye, and can just kick back with their family and enjoy some good, old-fashioned quality time.

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins and his family has been taking full advantage of that quality time recently, as Cousins let us know on Twitter. Cousins tweeted out that he and his children have been enjoying Disney movies, having just wrapped up watching Ratatouille and Emperor’s New Groove.

He then asked the audience for their recommendations. The Disney back catalogue is immense, and one could spend all day listing off some of the greats from Disney’s hey-day (or rather, hey-days; they have had several ‘golden eras’). Everyone is going to have their favorites, of course, and these are the 10 Disney movies I would recommend for the Cousins’ family to hit up next.

For the purposes of this list, I am going to assume that Cousins and family have already seen the really big Disney animated films, such as Lion King, Toy Story, Frozen, etc.

5 Disney animated films that could actually work (Tangled!) as live-action remakes

These Disney animated films might not be so bad in live-action format.

The Little Mermaid is splashing into theaters this weekend, another Disney animated film that has gotten the live-action treatment.

It’s not always possible to make these live-action remakes work, but Disney seems very focused on making as many of these as possible.

Films like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Lilo and Stitch, Hercules, The Sword in the Stone, Robin Hood, The Aristocats and Moana are all in the process of being remade as we speak.

This trend is a popular one at the Mouse House, and there are no signs of it slowing down anytime soon.

We’ve come up with five Disney animated films that really could work well as live-action features if they’re handled right, even if they may never see the light of day. One of our suggestions is apparently in the works, and we hope they do it justice.

Here’s our five picks, films we think could actually get fascinating reimaginings rather than just feel perfunctory in execution.
