So hard to choose! I'll pick Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King, and Hunchback of Notre Dame.
They're all so different. "Beauty and the Beast" is my very favourite of the classic 'typical Disney' princess fairy tale movies. "Lion King" is so different because of the African flair and the fact that all of the characters are animals. "Hunchback" has no royalty, the protagonist doesn't get the girl, none of the characters except Esmerelda are very good-looking, the villain is not funny, and the whole movie's very dark and sinister, with moments of brilliant comedy.
I picked those three because they are the ones that I felt had the most emotional integrity. As much as I love "The Little Mermaid," it's very much a fun-and-fluff piece-- which might be why it got bad reviews as a stage musical. This is also why I'd LOVE to see "Hunchback" come to Broadway. It's just brimming with emotion, and it feels the most REAL of any Disney movie.

I have (!) not really seen many Disney movies in recent times. I did like Ratatouille and it inspired me to make its eponymous dish (unfortunately, I'm never quite sure how to use "eponymous").

You used it correctly indeed! "Eponymous," despite the name, does NOT mean a mouse riding a pony, nor does it mean "In a manner reminiscent of Eponine."
It means 'giving one's name to something.' So a guillotine is Dr. Guillotin's eponymous invention. Monrovia is an eponymous place named after James Monroe. An eponym is technically a word based on a person's name, but it can also be the name of a film or a book or something like that.

Well, I understood what it meant, but because I learned it from Fly By Night, where there's a character, "Eponymous Clent", I was never quite sure how to use it. (Whether I can say "Artemis Fowl of the eponymous series seems to be reforming as it continues" (A sentence in which I was spectacularly careless about antecedents... ))
