I’m watching Disney’s Tangled on DVD right now as I prepare to write my review for the March 29th release of the DVD/Blu-Ray Combo. While enjoying the move again, I was reminded how well the pairing of Pascal the chameleon with Rapunzel, and Maximus the Police Horse with Flynn Rider worked. It made me think of some other famous pairs from Walt Disney’s Animated Features. We have Ariel and Flounder, Mulan and Mushu, Mowgli and Baloo, Pocahontas and Flik and Meeko, Hercules and Pegasus to name a few.

I love Cinderella and her animal helpers, especially her mice!
I have a lot of favorites, but I am going to go with Winnie the Pooh and Piglet.
Love Aladdin and Abu!
I love Shrek and Donkey because they work so well together.
Aladdin and Abu from Aladdin is my favorite. They are funny and sweet together.
Does Dumbo and Timothy Mouse count? I love how Timothy takes care of Dumbo when he’s at his lowest and teaches him that being yourself is magic enough. Love that movie!
My favorite Disney pairing is Aladdin and Abu, because they’re cute and hilarious!
I like The Disney Blog on Facebook too!
baloo and mogawi
My favorite pairing would be Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket. Not only is “Pinocchio” my favorite Disney movie, but I also feel their pairing is so essential to the story. Jiminy is Pinocchio’s conscience, after all… (PS: That “Tangled” lantern looks AWESOME!)
My favorite is Jasime and Rajah. Every girl needs a pet tiger.
Aladin and Abu steal it they are so funny and a good pair
Also liked the Disney blog on facebook- Jake Bray

I would say Ariel and Flounder (and her other underwater friends, like Sebastian)
Ariel and Flounder! Because flounder is super cute and supportive of Ariel’s decisions, whilst still trying to keep her grounded! :)
I love love love Meeko and Pocahontas because they complete each other!
lilo and stitch because they are family! Nobody gets left behind!
thanks for entering me!

My favorite Disney (Pixar) pair has to be Carl and Dud.
I love Jaq and Gus and how they stop at nothing to help Cinderella.
I love Ariel and Flounder together.
I’d say Mowgli and Baloo from THE JUNGLE BOOK. I like how the big old bear took the young cub under his wing and taught him through lessons and song.
Thanks!
Pinocchio and Jiminy Cricket because they are funny together.
Aladin and Abu!
Aladdin and Abu, I mean that monkey gets him in trouble every time, but always saves his life too.
I would have said Ariel and Flounder ,but since watching Tangled, I LOVE Rapunzel and Pascal. He’s been there for her since forever and he watches out for her. He changes colors and seems like a lot of fun.
Ariel and Flounder. :) They are adorable!
I love Hercules and Pegasus. They have an amazing bond and are so funny!
My favorite is Ariel and Flounder, I guess because that was my favorite movie growing up.
Aladdin and Abu are the greatest Disney pair! The combination of Aladdin’s charm and Abu’s humor make their antics make for non-stop entertainment and memories that last a lifetime!
I love Pocahontas and Meeko – I think that they both have a great inquisitive nature.
for sure marlin and dory :)
My favorite is Abu and Aladdin! I saw the movie in the theater when I lived in Florida. And as some people have exotic pets there, I SO WANTED to have a monkey like Abu as a pet.
It didn’t happen but I can dream. “A dream is a wish your heart makes, when you’re fast asleep…”
Hercules and Pegasus!
Ariel and flounder, they are so cute together and he cares for her
I LOVE Gus Gus & Jac! They always have each other’s back!
Kronk and his shoulder angel & devil. They all crack me up!!

My favorite pairing is Pocahontas and Meeko! They both are very much alike, both curious and inquisitive which causes them to sometimes “bump heads” and get on each other’s nervous but at the end of the day they still love each other and have lots of fun :)
Bambi and Thumper. How cute and inocent their friendship was.
I love Mowgli and Baloo. They sing the best song, “The Bare Necesseties” together!
My favorite Disney pair is Aladdin and Abu because of the way they stick together. Even with Abu being as silly as he is, Aladdin still loves him.

We LOVE Nemo in this house and especially the pairing of Dory and Marlin on their search for the little fish!

OK this might be stretching it, but I love Cinderella and I suppose she is paired with her little mice helpers.

I gotta go with Mickey and his faithful friend/sidekick Pluto. Best friends to the end!
My favorite pair is Sully and Mike! My daughter for the longest time called that movie “Eyeball!” Monster, Inc. is still one of my favorites.

I think Tron and Bit deserve some recognition.
Bit is so clear with his responses, Tron never has to deal with a “maybe” or a “sometimes”. It’s always yes or no!

Dumbo and Timothy Q. Mouse
I would say that Ariel and Flounder are my favorite because they have such great chemistry and are great friends!
