Top 10 Most Broadway-Esque Animated Movie Musicals

Animated musical films can sometimes make us feel like we are watching a Broadway show.

The singing, visual spectacle, and types of songs give us that vibe.

These movie musicals make us feel like they are bringing Broadway magic into our homes.

The Top Ten

  1. Encanto

  2. Frozen

  3. Beauty and the Beast

    The high tone of Paige O'Hara, the very showy belting number of Be Our Guest, and getting a cast of mostly theatre actors make this film feel like a Broadway show in animated form.

    Just like Frozen, it's a film with mainly Broadway or theatre actors. The music has that showy Broadway feel to it.

  4. Anastasia (1997)

  5. The Hunchback of Notre Dame

    Bells of Notre Dame is reminiscent of No One Mourns the Wicked, while Hellfire seems like it's the inspiration for No Good Deed.

  6. The Prince of Egypt

  7. Aladdin

  8. The Lion King

  9. Moana

  10. The Little Mermaid

    I was indecisive about putting this one since Jodie Benson's singing feels quite pop-style. Part of Your World, while it's a beautiful ballad, feels much more poppy than Belle or Let It Go.

    But hey, it still had as its composing team the guys who brought us Little Shop of Horrors, and Part of Your World, while poppy, it's still your typical musical I want song.

    11. The Newcomers
  11. ?

    FernGully: The Last Rainforest

  12. ?

    Terkel in Trouble

    13. The Contenders

  13. South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut

    The entire thing is a parody of every Broadway show you can think of.

  14. Corpse Bride

  15. The Nightmare Before Christmas
