Good First Films for 2.5year olds

Any good film recommendations for nearly 3 year old twins, most appear to have too much complicated dialogue. I would be grateful of any suggestions.

Lilo and Stitch too

DS loves Finding Nemo - more of a hit than Toy Story with us. He also likes musicals - have you tried the Wizard of Oz (Judy Garland version) or Mary Poppins? The Tigger Movie also quite popular.

DD watched Tigger the Movie at home, aged about 20 months and loved it.

My dd likes musicals too. Annie has been her favourite since she was 2 years old and she still watches it and sings all the words, shes 4 now.

DD (not quite 2.5yo) laughs hysterically at the sabre-tooth squirrel in Ice Age. Shrek, Jungle Book 2, Stitch, Chicken Run, Watership Down ("wabbits", Peter Pan, Lion King (she loves lions) -- all favourites. She likes BFG, too, but I think only because she's watched it since an early age; otherwise, she might have found it too scarey at the beginning.

Oh yeah -- CATS! The Musical; the kids are glued to it whenever we go see friends who have it on video.

Any Disney except Pete's Dragon! Dd loved it, and it is awful. And we watched it again and again.

My ds twins (aged 27months) loved Finding Nemo but prefered Lilo & Stitch as there was lots of music in it!

Today, they watched "Baby's Day Out" on Sky Movies. It isn't usual for them to watch much tv during the day so it was a nice quiet hour or so! They were total fascinated at the things the baby got up to.
