      Ive always said, its one of the best films for a young boy. Its scary and dark, it toughens you up. The main character you associate with is saving innocent animals and pretty girls, its a simple story and i love how random and dark and fast paced it is, all the reasons mainstream hates it is why its epic. Best disney film of all time along with Fox and The Hound.

      When I was a kid, I didn't know what to think. I loved the villain because he looked and sounded cool, and the sword was awesome. Yet, I didn't quite care for Taryn and Elionwy. Yet after I read the books and learned more about Welsh mythology, a mythology I have connection to through my heritage, I loved it more. I loved the connection to the lore, the darker tone, John Hurt, and even the animation looks vastly different from the other (I think this is the only disney animated movie to use some Rodoscoping). Its awesome. Although I don't like what they did to Gurgi. Gurgi is a wildman, not some creature. Yes he does some hair, but he is supposed to be some outcast from the world. He's more akin to a bigfoot to a pooka (which I think thats what they were going for).

    The corporate drama behind the scenes was what nearly crippled Disney.
    This and Atlantis the Lost Empire which also included a few strong female characters including Kida are both underrated gems and I hate the simplistic and stupid way people criticise them.

    I agree with you 100%
    Aside from being Disney’s 25th animated film, a high fantasy, based on Lloyd Alexander’s The Chronicles of Prydain.
    I enjoyed the Black Cauldron, and hoping for a Live action remake, and hopefully it would tie it more closely to the book series!

    Many say that, this film inspired Shigeru Miyamoto to create the Legend Of Zelda game series.
    But I must mention that, somehow I feel like this, this also inspired Sam Raimi when he wanted to make an Evil Dead movie that would take place in the Middle Ages, as shown at the end of Evil Dead 2, and of course in Army Of Darkness the whole film takes place in the Middle Ages. But like Army Of Darkness, which has often been criticized for not being a "traditional Evil Dead movie," The Black Cauldron is also criticized for not being a "traditional Disney movie." Which I find very annoying.
    I did not see Black Cauldron movie as a child, and the first time I saw this movie at the age of 21,
    but ever since I really liked this movie.
    A story set in the Middle Ages, a gloomy atmosphere, a magic sword, and a world you would like to explore.
    And I have to admit, this movie is one of the reasons I draw fantasy comics.

    I really liked it, it's in my top three disney animated films for sure, it had no singing, and I enjoyed that, musical do get annoying after a while, plus it's less kiddy than films like Snow white, and Cinderella, I think the problem was they really over spent, by having to totally reanimate certain things costing twice as much, and not making the amount of money that they wanted.

    I absolutely adore the early to mid (and near late, in some cases) Disney movies. It makes me a little sad knowing that kids nowadays won't ever truly experience the Disney that made movies for the sake of art and magic rather than money and pumping out products. I'm not sure if it's just me, but recent Disney movies seemed to have really lost the classic Disney magic and beauty

    I just watched this for the first time and really enjoyed it. It has wonderful animation, likable characters, and a fantastic story. It reminded me a lot of Lord of the Rings, in fact Andy Serkis based his Gollum voice, in part, on Gurgi. If I had to pick a weak point, it would be the barter scene with the witches, but I don’t understand why this movie is so heavily panned. I rate it 7/10.

    I can appreciate the points you're maiking, but I love the Prydain books more than most, and the first time I saw this movie, I hated it. I appreciate that they tried to do something different, but in my opinion, these stories just shouldn't even BE Disney animated movies. However, Don Bluth would've KILLED this project.

    • @bhar2855

      Agreed. This series was what got me into reading fantasy. I cringed when I saw this video title and the many comments in here. I thought surely there has to be someone with sense. The movie as an adaptation was terrible. If you've never read the books, sure maybe you'd appreciate it, but when you read the books and then watch this movie...yeah....it's like Eragon - no wonder it never got filmed sequels. The fact that Disney has the rights to this again is very disheartening, especially considering their obsession with "the message". This series needs a live action remake whether as movies or overall tv series, I don't care just as long as it does justice to the books.

    Did you know that the film got an R rating or so that's what people thought that's what the rating was gonna be. Disney should've shown this film to the Mpaa and the mpaa people should've thought about cutting out some of the scenes. But disney had to cut the scenes, due to the test screening scare with the kids and parents.

    • @laurynsylvain07

      It didn't get an R rating. It almost did, so it had to be edited twice and had to wait to be put in the theaters until 1998.
