00:00You sacrificed yourself for me? I love you.
00:05Welcome to MsMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for the animated
00:09Disney films that show us love is real. Plot points will be discussed, so this is your spoiler warning.
00:16I wish to stay on Earth with her. I finally know where I belong.
00:20Number 10. The Incredibles. While attempting to blend in as civilians, a family of superheroes
00:28end up coming out of forced hiding to save the world. At first glance, that doesn't sound too relatable.
00:34But you know what is relatable? Working through relationship problems.
00:38Right. First a car, now I gotta pay to fix a table.
00:41A car? What happened to the car?
00:44Here, I'm getting a new plate.
00:46Helen and Bob aren't some picture-perfect couple. Life gets to them, and there's a strain in their marriage.
00:52Reliving the glory days is better than acting like they didn't happen.
00:55Yes, they happened! But this, our family, is what's happening now, Bob! And you are missing this!
01:01Originally, he sets out to do superhero work without telling her or the kids.
01:06But they find their way, because they're meant to be.
01:09As she and the rest of the Incredible clan get entangled in the journey, Bob sees the power of family.
01:15I can't lose you again!
01:19I can't. Not again. I'm not strong enough.
01:24How can you not believe in love after watching that?
01:27Despite its fantastical elements, this story is about valuing your nearest and dearest.
01:33Number 9. Wall-E
01:35It's not easy to be lonely, even if you're a machine.
01:39Over centuries of cleaning up an uninhabited Earth, our titular robot has become sentient and longs for love.
01:55When he meets another bot, Eve, he grows attached to her.
01:59Wall-E's dedication to her is inspiring and teaches us that sometimes it's okay to dive in headfirst when you're drawn to someone.
02:06The process is slower for Eve, but it's also incredibly special.
02:11From trying to send him home from the mothership, to their dance to her distress at the thought of losing him, the slow burn is adorable.
02:19Watching as her feelings flourish could make a hopeless romantic out of even the most robotic human being.
02:41Number 8. Lady and the Tramp
02:44Opposites attract in this musical romance.
02:47After being mistreated by the family member looking after her in her owner's absence, the sheltered lady finds herself on an adventure with a stray named Tramp.
02:55Well, that's what comes of tying yourself down to one family.
02:59Haven't you a family?
03:01One for every day of the week. The point is, none of them have me.
03:05Their backgrounds couldn't be more different, yet whenever she stumbles into trouble, he's there to help.
03:10Even after she sends him away, he saves her owner's kid. That alone has us swooning.
03:15But let's also not forget the super romantic spaghetti dinner.
03:19It inspires all of us to step up our dating game.
03:23By the end, they build a family, as Tramp finds a home in the process.
03:28It's a reassuring reminder that you can find your soulmate in the most unexpected ways, if you just trust your heart.
03:53The Little Mermaid
04:03What are you willing to do for true love?
04:06After becoming enamored with a person, a mermaid who's fascinated with the life on land is turned human by a dangerous sea witch with an agenda.
04:15Her sacrifice is a natural part of relationships, and Ariel's devotion to building her connection with Eric is admirable.
04:22It's hard not to root for them.
04:30Sure, it's an unconventional pairing, and the amount of obstacles they face is wild.
04:35Eric getting bewitched and villain Ursula nearly taking over Atlantica for good definitely weren't part of the plan.
04:42But who said happy endings were easy?
04:44Despite the odds they face, their romance prevails, proving that the best things in life are worth fighting for.
05:03Tangled
05:04After being locked away and lied to for years, Princess Rapunzel finally gets the opportunity to explore the world and learn who she really is, thanks to a thief, Flynn Rider.
05:24They may get off to a rocky start, but their connection grows until it's undeniable.
05:30Lantern scene, anyone?
05:32There's nothing more satisfying than watching bad boy Flynn open up, even sharing his real name with Rapunzel.
05:48If that's not romantic enough, he also goes from being self-serving to sacrificing himself to save her from captivity.
05:55This film is amazing because it shows us how love can change our lives for the better.
06:00Who knows where the pair would have ended up if they hadn't met each other?
06:14There are different kinds of love in Frozen.
06:16Of course there's the romantic kind.
06:18Hans' betrayal is unbelievable, while Kristoff's loyalty to Anna drives home the message that you deserve a partner who values you for who you are.
06:31But perhaps more importantly, there's also the familial kind, which comes through Anna and Elsa's sisterly bond.
06:38The former spends part of the movie trying to find the latter and save the kingdom from staying frozen.
06:44But once Anna's heart is accidentally hit with ice, the quest to save her with an act of true love begins.
06:50And wouldn't you know it, that act happens to be one of sacrifice between sisters.
06:55An act of true love will thaw a frozen heart.
07:00Love will thaw.
07:03Love is about what's on the inside, not the outside.
07:06When an arrogant Prince is turned into a beast, he yearns to break the curse.
07:10I'm just fooling myself with love.
07:12And he does.
07:13He loves Anna.
07:14He's never truly loved her.
07:16And he's never ever truly loved her.
07:18But he does love her.
07:20He loves Anna.
07:21He loves Anna.
07:22He loves Anna.
07:23He loves Anna.
07:24He loves Anna.
07:25He loves Anna.
07:26He loves Anna.
07:27He loves Anna.
07:28He loves Anna.
07:29He loves Anna.
07:30break the curse. Unfortunately for him, the solution is to love, and find someone who
07:41reciprocates those feelings. This wouldn't be so bad if he wasn't extremely closed
07:45off. Thankfully, he slowly warms up through Belle's presence. The book-smart protagonist
08:01still treats him with kindness despite his grisly appearance and behaviour. He, in turn,
08:07ultimately lets her go, knowing she needs to save her father. These two lovebirds convince
08:21us that love is transformative, and that it can enrich your life if you just let it in
08:26without pretense or vanity.
08:42Self-discovery can lead to the best romantic connections. Hercules is a demigod who embarks
08:47on a quest to prove his heroism. In the process, he meets and falls for Megara. She becomes
08:52so important to him that by the end, he chooses her over life as a god. Aww. Meg's backstory
08:59meanwhile pulls at our heartstrings. In order to rescue her now ex, she gave her soul to
09:04the villainous Hades. It would have been romantic if he hadn't dumped her. But fear not, with
09:18Hercules, she learns to love again. She's reluctant to let him in at first – anyone
09:23who's dealt with a breakup can relate to that – but she does it anyway. If she can
09:40do it, and find something so special, so can we.
09:45The Princess and the Frog
09:46Tiana wants nothing more than to have her own restaurant, but the finances aren't
09:50easy to sort out. She thinks she has a solution when she meets Prince-turned-frog Naveen,
09:56but ends up becoming a frog alongside him. It's wild, yes, but what's deeply persuasive
10:12is the way they grow as individuals, while connecting with one another. She learns about
10:16the importance of balance while he matures. In other words, they complement each other
10:21beautifully. By the end, all that matters is that they're together, whether as humans
10:36or amphibians. If their story isn't enough to convince you that love is real and worth
10:40fighting for, the way Rey completely gives himself to Evangeline, a star surely will.
10:55Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honourable mentions.
10:59Aladdin
11:00Opening our eyes to a whole new world of love. The Emperor's New Groove. Pacha, Chicha,
11:13and their kids are family goals.
11:25Robin Hood Robin and Maid Marian were meant to be their
11:29whole lives.

11:59On the surface, Up is a story about adventure, as the elderly Karl ties countless balloons
12:04to his house in a bid to travel to Paradise Falls. Naturally, shenanigans ensue, but the
12:18reason he's embarking on this journey is to honour his late wife, Ellie. In the film's
12:23opening, we see the pair go from childhood friends to spouses as they build a rich life
12:27as true partners.
12:38We watch big occasions like their wedding, and see them do everyday things like renovating
12:43and reading. Of course, there's also hardship. By the end of the largely wordless segment,
12:48Ellie has passed away. But the love lives on, fueling Karl and tugging at our heartstrings.
13:05It's true, pure, and so sincere, you just know it's real.
