Musker and Clements get every other one right, I think, with Aladdin as their (and nearly Disney's) feature-length peak.

This is a wonderful point to be making, David. Too many films today give children the vague advice of "going for your dream" or "being true to yourself" etc., and it's such a cliche. Kids need to be given the practical, hard advice that will actually help them to succeed. “Tiana is indeed ‘true to her dream’ of opening a swanky restaurant, but the film makes it very clear – as clear as a parent could wish – that relentless hard work and delayed gratification are the key.”
