Probably the two best Disney movies, but these is a distinct 1 and 2.
on 8/20/2009
Lion King, in my opinion, is the ultimate Disney movie.
on 12/3/2009
wow ... my childhood just shattered now that I have to choose between two of the best Disney Movies
on 12/22/2009
Lion King > Toy Story
on 1/8/2010
My Two Favorite Animated Movies of all time you really make my nose bleed but i think The Lion King is the one true King of Animated Movies because i think everything about it is perfect
on 1/11/2010
Both are amazing but I have to go with The Lion King just because I watched it more as a kid.
on 1/12/2010
It's the ciiiircle of liiiiifffe!!! *Insert background singers here* Gotta love it.
on 3/4/2010
2 movies from my childhood... I always preferred Buzz & Woody
on 3/12/2010
Best Disney movie: The Lion King.
on 4/16/2010
As far as animated films go, it's damn near impossible to beat The Lion King. In fact, so far, only one Pixar film can do it. It's not Toy Story.
on 5/20/2010
Both are brilliant, but only one of them adds a masterpiece soundtrack to an adaptation of "Hamlet." "The Lion King" wins this round.
on 9/25/2010
I recently watched toy story, and it still holds up. I haven't watched Lion King in at least 10 years. Would have to go with the toys

CGI animation is really pissing me off at the moment with every single one being released in a 3D that it doesn't even use. And even though Toy Story was far before the present 3D age, let it be known that CGI ANIMATION WILL NEVER SURPASS THE SHEER WONDER AND ART OF EITHER 2D OR STOP-MOTION ANIMATION. No matter what the CGI film, I shall always choose the opposite if it is in 2D or Stop-Motion because...well...they just require more talent to make. Enough said.

Two of the best animated films ever made. The difference that cut the deal for me was the animation style. Nowadays the animation in Toy Story is outdated, while Lion Kings animation is and will always be amazing. Both movies have great music, but Lion King's score is better.
Definitely the lion king. It has a stronger more definite message, and it's an awesome movie! i love that it has just the right amount of action, drama, and comedy!
on 8/10/2011
I love me some "Toy Story," but Disney has yet to top "The Lion King."
It's a toughy, but I think I'll choose Toy Story.
on 4/27/2012
Dang this is hard! Toy Story wins........
on 7/24/2012
Had to go with Toy Story, I just don't feel like the Lion King holds up as much after seeing it on blu-ray. The story is way too crammed in.
Agree 100%. Lion King doesn't hold up for me either. Just another cartoon. Toy Story wins...
on 9/5/2012
You've got a friend in me! The Lion King was brilliantly animated, scored, and had a great story. I felt Timon and Pumbo took away from the greatness at some points though. Toy Story wins.
Lion King wins but both are awesome and in my Top 10 of all time.
on 12/21/2012
Oh boy.
Two of the greatest animated films of time and two childhood favorites, gotta go with Toy Story.
on 12/22/2012
Toy Story by a long margin. There's heaps of animated films that surpass Lion King in greatness.
on 12/28/2012
I'm going with Lion King. Toy Story was truly a film that ushered in a new era for animation but I felt the story was somewhat lacking.
Toy Story is closer to my heart, but I think The Lion King might be the (slightly) better film.
on 1/25/2013
The Lion King was fun and entertaining, but I feel that it's no where near Disney's best films. If this was Toy Story going up against, say, Beauty and the Beast, or The Princess and the Frog, this might be a closer match. Still, Toy Story's poignancy and brilliance in story and humor are more than enough to top The Lion King.
I can feel emotionally attached to a group of toys more so than with a lion; I always did want a lion as a pet though...I would have named him Percy. Percy the Lion.
Such a difficult decision. They're both equally Disney masterpieces. However, I'm going with Toy Story only because I have much more nostalgia attachment to it.
on 1/26/2013
Lion King is DAMN awesome but Toy Story is to me, Pixar's masterpiece
on 3/27/2013
The greatest animation match up possible...Both top 20 for me but Toy Story is a movie I've seen countless times
on 4/21/2013
This is easy! The Lion King, though still an impressive film, has quite a number of flaws, most notably the genericism of the characters of Scar, Nala and Mufasa. Toy Story, on the other hand, is absolutely brilliant...
on 5/2/2013
These films are insanely close at the top of my list. Both are truly moving with great styles of animation. They have great characters, memorable songs and are 2 of Disney/Pixar's best works. Lion King just clinches it due to the fact that I still cry even though I know what happens
on 6/16/2013
Toy Story edges out the Lion King.
on 6/28/2013
In my personal opinion, if I compare these movies with the following factors. Characthers: Toy Story Animation: The Lion King Story: The Lion King It's like this, the Toy Story Trilogy are my favorite CGI animated movies, The Lion King is my all time favorite animated film.
on 9/28/2013
Jack is wrong. Toy story wins
on 10/23/2013
Now this is a tough one

2 best cartoon movies ever, Lion King Wins
on 12/18/2013
The battle of Disney's finest. Toy Story but barely.

The Lion King was almost perfect. Toy Story was perfect.
on 2/13/2014
I loved both these movies when I was a kid, but Toy Story was my favourite by far. TS for the win!
they are both great and its hard to compare them ....but lion king appeals to me more and would be my choice
on 3/5/2014
OOOOOOOOOOOH!!! IT IS HAPPENING. FLICKCHART BROKEN!!! I know it sounds lame but these ARE equally good and mean equally much to me. Coin toss it the only solution....toy story it is
on 4/18/2014
lion king is AWSOME!...but toy story 1 is my favorite then then 2nd last the 3rd I can't decide
Toy Story wins in my book
on 8/16/2014
My two favourite Disney movies ever! This couldn't be harder... Maybe The Lion King, because of its memorable songs.
on 8/23/2014
The big problem is, TLK has a bunch of flimsy plot-holes that don't work together quite well. It is well known for its strong and powerful emotions, but TS performs extraordinary against TLK since it has amazing emotions as well. Thus TLK looses its biggest upper-hand and loses against TS.
The Lion King
on 9/23/2014
Both outstanding works of animation. I'll side with the king of the jungle.
on 3/4/2015
Toy Story easily
on 4/29/2015
As much as I love the music of Lion King, my toys coming to life when I wasn't around was a fantasy I had as a kid. Toy Story wins by a hair.
on 5/29/2015
Toy Story > Lion King, end of story.
on 6/26/2016
The Lion King of course.
on 6/30/2016
No kidding and not to be a Fanboy but TLK is much better than Toy Story, the story, the characters, it's just a good combination of art and story. Pad: watched this movie over 20 times in my life so I'll be lying to you if I voted Toy Story
on 1/7/2017
Both tough choices, but Toy Story wins.
on 1/23/2017
Lion King is better because it's a classic and Pumbaa is a funny, but Toy Story is also a classic and a great movie
on 1/28/2017
Toy Story is a great Pixar movie, but I think I feel like watching The Lion King one day. Toy Story still wins it.
on 2/24/2017
Hmm, both great choices are tough, but in the end, The Lion King wins here. That's why I have changed my mind.
on 6/26/2017
That's really hard but The Lion King
on 7/16/2017
Two pathetically overrated films, but if I must choose one, I guess I'll go Lion King. I mean the songs were good.
on 6/17/2018
This just HAD to be my first ranking of the day, didn't it...?
on 12/10/2018
TOY STORY LOVE BUZZ AND WOODY
on 12/12/2018
Toy Story is certainly the better film.
I really like toy story but I think that the lion king is far better
on 7/28/2019
The Lion King is extremely overrated, just a below average film with an average story. Toy Story is awesome with a great story and unique characters. Easy choice.
on 9/30/2019
Toy Story
on 11/14/2019
To infinity and beyond...
on 11/25/2019
Toy Story is always 1# Disney's best of all.
on 9/21/2020
The Lion King is the best Disney animation and one of the best of all time!
The Lion King is indeed better.
on 2/10/2021
I definitely prefer Toy Story more, but The Lion King is still solid.
OMG MY STUPID COMPUTER CRASHED SO I PRESSED SUBMIT SO MANY TIMES I'm an idiot sorry guys
on 2/18/2022
toy story by a landslide, never liked lion king
on 9/6/2022
Toy Story is great, but Lion King is one of my childhood movies.
on 12/23/2022
I grew up with Toy Story more so it gets the win
on 1/6/2023
The two greatest Disney movies ever. Or the two greatest American animated movies ever. Or the two greatest not-japanese animated films ever. Lion king wins. Sorry for reading all of this.
on 1/31/2023
Toy Story by a long shot. Lion King is a great movie and all but it really isn't groundbreaking. I did like the music, and animation, but nothing innovative. Toy Story on the other hand is the 1st 3d animated movie (I may be wrong). The movie brings me nostalgia and never gets old.
