6 Disney Movies Ripe for a Summer Rewatch

Summer is officially here and we want to know, what are 6 Disney Movies that just scream summer? Luckily for us, we have this list and we are ripe for a rewatch on those too-hot-to-go-outside summer days.

1. Lilo + Stitch

If you read no further, this one movie will have you summer wooed. Lilo + Stitch features Hawaiian beaches, loveable aliens, and a heartwarming story. It will make you want to surf, turn your backyard into a luau, and remind you why Elvis is king. And whether you watch the live action or the original animated movie, one thing is for certain…this movie is summer.

2. The Little Mermaid

While our minds are on the ocean, nobody sings the summer waters better than Ariel in The Little Mermaid. Ursula is still one of the best Disney villains of all time, we love Ariel’s sidekicks, and this is another one where you can enjoy the animated or live action films. Swim with the fishes in a good way by diving into this movie once again… shall we say, the water’s fine.

3. Finding Nemo

Keeping with the ocean theme, you can’t mention the high summer seas without talking about Finding Nemo. This movie takes us down under which always brings to mind warmer weather and sunny days. We also love the “road trip” feel which hollers summer vacation, and if you forget… just keep swimming, because that’s what summer is for… swimming.

4. Jungle Cruise

After all that water, we should dry off on land… well, close to it. Jump into a romp of a ride with Jungle Cruise where you will get the feel of the park adventure while never leaving your living room. Perhaps that is the tenth wonder of the world, convenience.

5. Moana

That’s enough dry land, let’s jump back into the water, and back to Hawaii, with Moana. Moana hits the summer vibes hardcore. Tropical inviting beaches, warm Hawaiian waters, and a blinged out crustacean. It even has a cute volcano and was originally accompanied with the short film Lava. A volcano falling in love in a tropical paradise? Hello summer! And let’s not forget, after you tip your toes in the water with the animated movie, the live action releases this July! You’re welcome.

6. A Goofy Movie

Bringing our list to an end is A Goofy Movie. This may seem a little bit different then our other picks, but it fits in like a rubber duckie in water. A personal favorite, we can all recall that feeling of the last day of school before summer vacation, having to go on a road trip with our strange yet loveable father, detouring it to fit our needs and win the hand of our high school crush– did I mention there’s a life-size opossom? This road trip movie will have you laughing and singing just like a real summer road trip would all from the comfort of your own home. Hello staycation! And on par with a few of our other selects, after you watch this movie you can dig a bit deeper with the behind-the-scenes documentary, Not Just a Goof.

No matter what your preferred Disney Summer Watch List, we can all agree that summer vibes need to be had. So why not live it up Disney-style?
