History Heartwarming / Disney

[[AC:TheNightmareBeforeChristmas]]
* "And sit together, now and forever, for it is plain as anyone can see... we're simply meant to be."
* The trailer said it best:
--> Touchstone pictures presents the story of two very special dreamers, and the holiday spirit that brought them together..."
* Also "Poor Jack," in which Jack's despair over (nearly) ruining Christmas turns to a triumphant rebirth ("That's right! I ''AM'' the Pumpkin King!") and determination to fix the mess he made before it's too late.
* Even though it marks where things start going wrong, [[ManCalledTrue this editor]] still gets a little shiver from "What's This", when Jack realizes he's stumbled into exactly the sort of difference he wanted. "I must be dreaming/Wake up Jack this isn't fair!/What's this?"
* "Jack's Lament"? ThisTroper still gets all fuzzy inside from simply 'humming' the freakin' thing!
* Though it didn't appear in the movie proper, it's still a song on the soundtrack: the epilogue, [[spoiler: where Jack has four or five little skeleton children playing in a xylophone band. The narrator catches up with Jack and asks if he would do it all over again, knowing all that he does now. Jack answers, "Wouldn't you?"]]
* How 'bout at the end when Jack has made his return to Halloweentown and Santa flys by, saying "Happy Halloween!", making snow and Jack saying "Merry Christmas!"?

* The finale for Pepper Ann should also count, also in the first episode when word gets out that Pepper Ann went to a mall the students call lame to get rid of a zit,(long story) she freaks out then her friends Milo and Nicky pet her on the back and say "its okay we`re here for you." awww the troper wishes she had friends like PA`s. in fact eveytime PA, Milo, and Nicky show true friendship is Heartwarming to this troper.

[[AC: {{Enchanted}}]]
* Robert is cynical and utterly unromantic, but he is obviously falling for Disney Princess-turned-real Giselle. When they dance at the ball, romantic song in the background, Robert starts softly singing along for her... even though he earlier said in the movie that he "doesn't dance" and "doesn't sing." Cue any girls watching to movie to go "Awwww!!!"
* The TrueLovesKiss scene. [[spoiler: Seeing that Edward's kiss has failed to wake Giselle, Robert goes over to her and kisses her. Giselle's eyes flutter open. She looks up toward Robert, and whispers, relievedly:]]
-->[[spoiler: '''Giselle:''' I knew it was you.]]
* When, at the end, [[spoiler:Edward ends up with Robert's girlfriend]], that's a very short but very heartwarming scene. Because it would have broken this troper's heart to see the left-overs be left alone and to be honest she seemed to be very enthusiastic about the world-change. For that matter, [[spoiler: when you think about Edward's character, you know that he did really love Giselle. . . but when he realized that his kiss wouldn't work, he turned around and asked Robert to do it. It showed that he was very open-minded, good at accepting the truth and the inevitable, and would then proceed to look for other available solutions.]] ThisTroper then became a [[FanGirl huge Edward fan.]]
* Hell, just ''Enchanted'' as a whole for this editor. She can be pretty cynical about the world, but she came out of the theater ''dancing.'' Even now, it's a big WAFF movie for me.

[[AC:OliverAndCompany]]
* The dogs comforting Fagin after he finds out he only has 3 days to owe Sykes the money.
* The song Jenny sings while playing the piano, followed with a montage of her with Oliver, and finally, going to bed together.
** you and me together will be, forever you'll see, we two can be good company, you and me.....
* And the ending, much like the endings to every other Disney film... [[spoiler: just before Sykes dies, he tosses Oliver off of him. Jenny checks if Oliver is okay, but he seemed like he was dead... until the little kitten lets out a mew.]] And the epilogue, at Jenny's birthday party, with all 3 Crowning Moment types.

[[AC:Other]]

[[AC:ThePrincessAndTheFrog]]
* Ray's [[spoiler:joining his true love Evangeline in the sky after Dr. Facilier kills him]] in "ThePrincessAndTheFrog".
* Tiana and Naveen falling in love is just the one of the sweetest things in cinema this troper has ever seen. <3
* '''Naveen''': [[spoiler: "Because Tiana.... She is my Evangeline."]] * sniffle*
* [[spoiler: '''Tiana:''' "My dream...? My dream wouldn't be complete... without you in it. I love you Naveen."]] This troper can't hear that line without [[{{Squee}} squealing]].
** [[spoiler:'''Naveen'''" Warts and all? '''Tiana''': "Warts and all."]]
* The fact that the movie is a return to Classic Disney will give warm fuzzies to any long time fan of the company.
* This troper can't say exactly why, but Charlotte [[spoiler:getting teary-eyed by seeing her best friend finding her one true love]] was very endearing. There's just something about that typical [[TheLibby Libby]] being so happy for her best friend, and her little sentence (something as "I've heard about true love stories in fairy tales all my life... and you've found yours, Tiana!") that... d'awwww.
* Tiana [[spoiler: using that old drawing as the cover of her restaurant menus -- and actually ''calling'' it "Tiana's Palace"--is just so sweet!]]
* The entire song "Ma Belle Evangeline." No explanation should be necessary, but I'm sure this will be elaborated on.
* Prince Naveen stopping Louis from saying "That ain't no fire-" during [[CrowningMusicOfAwesome Ma Belle Evangeline]]. Seeing a womanizer like Naveen, who had been previously lecturing Ray on settling down too quickly, actually respect Ray's affection was heartwarming.
* Seeing all of little Tiana's neighbors, at the beginning of the movie, sitting together and eating the gumbo she made makes this troper get a little teary eyed for some reason.
* When Tiana is catering Charlotte's party, a minor scuffle ends in her being knocked into the dessert table and overturning it, ruining the beignets that Charlotte was banking on to help her get the Prince's attention. Charlotte, who has already been established as spoiled and self-centered (out of obliviousness rather than cruelty), proves herself to be SpoiledSweet when her only concern is making sure that Tiana is okay and helping her find a clean dress.
** This troper agrees! It was partially because she had been established as spoiled, and this troper completely expected her to turn on Tiana and chew her out. But her complete aversion of the {{Royal Brat}} made the moment all the more heartwarming.

[[AC:TheLittleMermaid]]
*
-->'''Sebastian:''' You are hopeless, child. You know that. Completely hopeless.
* Also, the [[spoiler: wedding scene at the end, where everyone's happy and Ariel is saying goodbye to her dad]] makes me tear up everytime.
-->'''Ariel''': I love you Daddy.
* Not to mention the moment Triton and Eric nod at each other in mutual respect and approval.
* And when Eric takes off in a rowboat with a harpoon to rescue Ariel from Ursula, starting off his CrowningMomentOfAwesome:
-->'''Eric:''' I lost her once, I'm '''NOT''' going to lose her again!

[[AC:{{Bolt}}]]
* About every other scene in ''{{Bolt}}'', starting with the opening and ending with the fade-out.
* In the deserts of Nevada, Mittens [[spoiler:attempts to explain to Bolt that his owner Penny was just pretending to like him as part of her acting job,]] but Bolt simply says:
--> [[spoiler: '''Bolt:''' "Penny is different."]]
* The entire "Barking at the Moon" sequence, where [[spoiler:Bolt gets to experience the fun parts of being a dog for the first time in his life.]]
* One of my favorites is near the end where Rhino, who had always believed in Bolt's powers, even after Bolt himself didn't know it, hears Bolt's bark for help, and simply calls, "It's the Superbark!"
* Combines liberally with TearJerker, but the moment Bolt resigns himself to the fact that [[spoiler: he doesn't know how to save Penny from the fire, he lays down beside her... presumably to die with her]]. Just the fact that he loved her that much... Thankfully, [[spoiler: he remembers the air vent trick shortly thereafter]].

[[AC:Disney/{{Tarzan}}]]
*
-->'''Tarzan''': (to Kala as he prepares to leave Africa with Jane, and he is wearing his father's suit) No matter where I go, you will always be my mother.
* "You came back?" "I came home" - gets this troper every time.
* Listen to the reprise of "You'll Be In My Heart" from the stage musical. You WILL cry.
* Kerchak's last words. Two last words - "My son".

[[AC:TheLionKing]]
* The end, with "The Circle of Life".
* "Love Will Find A Way" from ''TheLionKing II''.
* In ''TheLionKing 1 1/2'', it is suggested that even though Simba's life with Timon & Pumbaa was considered reckless and carefree, Timon & Pumbaa were still caring guardians to him especially during Simba's cubhood when he is still coping with the loss of his father.
* After saving Simba from the hyenas, Mufasa and Simba have a heartwarming father/son moment:
-->'''Simba''': Dad? We're pals, right?
-->'''Mufasa''': Right
-->'''Simba''': And we'll always be together, right?
-->'''Mufasa''': Simba, let me tell you something my father told me. Look at the stars. The great kings of the past are up there, watching over us...So whenever you feel alone, just remember that those kings will always be there to guide you. And so will I.

[[AC:Disney/{{Aladdin}}]]
* After the Genie has been freed:
--> '''Genie:''' Oh does that feel good! I'm getting outta here! I'm off to see the world! I--
--> '''Aladdin:''' Genie... I'm really gonna miss you...
--> '''Genie:''' (tears up) Me too, Al. No matter what anybody says, you'll always be a prince to me.
* And how about when Genie gets ready to use the final wish to make Aladdin a prince, and is completely caught off-guard when Aladdin wishes for Genie's freedom?
* Genie celebrating as he leaves to enjoy his freedom always gets me.
--> "Hey, rugman! Ciao! I'm history! No, I'm mythology! Oh, who cares what I am, I'm ''free!''" (elated laughter as he flies into the distance)
* The magic carpet ride, one of the most romantic and magical [[FallingInLoveMontage Falling In Love Montages]] ever. That it comes on the heels of Aladdin realizing that his faux-charm isn't going to work on Jasmine and reverting back to his natural self makes it even more heartwarming, since the carpet ride is when he knowingly treats her to the one thing she's always wanted: freedom.
--> "No one to tell us no, or where to go, or say we're only dreaming."
** The cutest part? The fact that Jasmine eyes are wide as she stares around at the world she's never seen before, but Aladdin hardly ever takes his eyes off ''her''.
* In the King of Thieves, when Cassim throws the treasure he has been searching for all his life into the sea, recognising his son as the real treasure. Later, he shows up at the wedding despite risking his freedom to be there.

[[AC:TreasurePlanet]]
* The ending: Although these days it's practically required by ''TreasureIsland'' remakes to turn Silver into a surrogate father to Jim Hawkins, this movie did it in a warm fuzzy believable way that gets this troper every time.
* The montage of scenes where Jim and Silver are warming up to each other set to "I'm Still Here" never fails to make this troper feel all warm and smiley.
* Same scene gave this troper a 50/50: Half Heartwarming, Half Tearjerker. Because... Hello, identifiable daddy-issues!
* "Listen here, Jim. [[ParentalAbandonment Your pap must've been daft to give up a gem like you.]] You've got the makings of greatness in you, my boy. You got to take the helm and chart your own course. Stick to it, no matter the squalls! And when the time comes you get the chance to really test the cut of your sails, and show what you're made of! Well, I hope I'm there, catching some of the light coming off you that day..."
* And for the cherry on the icing on the cake, "Always Know Where You Are" playing over the credits.
* Two things in particular: At the end, Jim looking up at the sky and seeing a cloud-form Silver smiling down (complete with a star for [[ElectronicEyes his eye]]), and this quote:
-->'''Silver:''' Look at you! Glowing like a solar fire. You're something special, Jim. You're gonna rattle the stars, you are!

[[AC:LiloAndStitch]]
* The final scenes are just made of this, particularly this speech:
-->'''Stitch:''' This is my family. I found it, all on my own. It's little...and broken...but still good. Yeah. Still good.
* Which is especially amazing because when they finally corner Stitch, who has been seen in the eyes of the Galactic Federation or whatever to be an irredeemable little monster, he simply stands up and ''talks to them''. His only questions are if he has to leave, and if he can say goodbye. Just... * sniff*
* You know, make that any serious scene about "[[{{Nakama}} ohana]]." [[TearJerker ''Ohana means family. Family means no-one gets left behind.'']]
** "Or forgotten." [[hottip:* : Just makes it all the more infuriating how hard the sequels and TV series overplayed this, turning it into a grating catchphrase.]]
* The final photo at the end of the first film: Rather than it only being Lilo, Nani and their [[ParentalAbandonment deceased parents]], another photo is partly overlapping it now, so it looks like Stitch is sitting with them.
* On that note... This troper isn't sure how much she liked the sequel, but the ending... She has to admit to having teared up. [[spoiler:"Stitch not bad. Stitch fluffy!"]] Uwaah!
* The short film "The Origin of Stitch" is just one big heartwarmer, particularily when [[spoiler: Jumba hugs Stitch just like a father would.]] Awwww...

[[AC:Disney/{{Hercules}}]]
* The ending song: The gods set an image of Hercules in the stars, and ''That's Phil's Boy''. Even makes the curmudgeonly Phil tear up.
* The ending of "I Won't Say." There IS a reason why this song is overused in AMV's.
* "People always do crazy things when they're in love."
* "Father, this is the moment I've always dreamed of. But, a life without Meg, even an immortal life would be empty. I, I wish to stay on earth with her. I finally know where I belong."
* A whole lot of the lyrics in ''Go the Distance,'' and the message about hope and determination in them.
--> ''I have often dreamed of a far-off place, where a great, warm welcome will be waiting for me. Where the crowds will cheer when they see my face, and a voice keeps saying this is where I'm meant to be. I will'' find ''my way. I can go the distance. I don't care how far; somehow, I'll be strong. I know'' every ''mile will be worth my while when I find my hero's welcome, right where I belong.''

[[AC:Film/BeautyAndTheBeast]]
* The dance crosses this with CrowningMomentOfAwesome.
* The lyrics of the ballad really narrate the heartwarming behind the moment, especially with the line ''bittersweet and strange, finding you can change, learning you were wrong''.
* And when the Beast transforms back into a Prince... even if you're disappointed with how he looks, the joy in his and Belle's expressions and voices is just so ''contagious'' and ''wonderful.'' And then they share a kiss that ''literally'' sets off fireworks, which transform the castle and its inhabitants back to their original state. Apparently, the screenplay describes it as "The kiss that has waited for so long."
* And just before that when the Beast is dying after Gaston stabs him:
--> '''Beast''': You came back?
--> '''Belle''': Of course! I couldn't let them...this is all my fault. If only I'd gotten here sooner...
--> '''Beast''': Maybe it's better this way.
--> '''Belle''': Don't talk like that! We're together now, everything's going to be alright.
--> '''Beast''': At least I got to see you...one last time. * closes his eyes and dies*
--> '''Belle''': No! No! Please! Please! Please don't leave me... I love you.
* During a song montage, the Beast is helpless with his soup spoon, so Belle ignores any technical rules of etiquette to pick up the bowl and sip from its edge, which the Beast then imitates with a grateful smile. This troper tears up every time he sees that sequence, especially since the reason he's struggling with the spoon in the first place is that he noticed Belle looking chagrined at him slobbering down his meal like, well, an animal. The bowl drinking is a meeting in the middle moment that defines the pair's growing relationship beautifully.

* ''TaleSpin'' - "Plunder and Lightning" when Rebecca sings a lullaby to Molly and notices Kit Cloudkicker is wistfully watching her as a mother he will never have. Although he tries to hide, Rebecca finishes her song by leaving out the cookie jar for him to take a cookie to show silently that she cares for him too. (This scene is unfortunately [[EditedForSyndication cut from reruns and even the DVD]].)
