I am chuckling to myself this morning as my 5yo son is OBSESSED with Miss Tilly - the boat at Typhoon Lagoon. We were talking about his favorite things about Disney and I asked his favorite character... without missing a beat his reply was "TILLY". :laughing:

I can't blame him - I'm partial to Clara Cluck, especially during the MNSSHP Boo to You Parade!

Do you have any fun off-beat Disney favorites?
 
Oh, definitely. I like a few of the offbeat ones, though some, like Atlantis, have become cult favorites now-a-days. I do love the lore behind the Society of Explorers and Adventurers, but that's also getting more and more popular. I am also one of the weirdos who really liked Rivers of Light. It didn't catch on, but I thought it was great!

My FIL worked on Rivers of Light -- it was such a special show. We really enjoyed it!

My daughter was one of the rare ones in the US (not Tokyo) who loves Duffy. She has a Duffy popcorn bucket and pin of him wearing an Indiana Jones hat for Adventureland.

*edited for spelling. I couldn't take it. ;)

Here's one that most people probably wouldn't know. I used to babysit for my sister's kids while she worked. I could still do my own work and look after them...my nephew was so obsessed with Johnny Tremaine that he watched that movie every day.
 
Kids are grown, but when the little, Aristocats was one of their favorite movies. Loved the villain Edgar -- he was just hopeless.
 
Well it's not at all obscure, but it does get a fair amount of hate ... but our family LOVES the Tiki Room. When the kids were little we watched youtube videos of it a lot, and even now we will just randomly belt out the lyrics to each other.
