GOOD MORNING FIMFICTION FANATICS! This is the Dramamaster829; critic, actor, writer, motivational speaker, and occasional singer. So, I was strolling through Twitter during work today (Mostly because I was bored) and I happened to stumble upon this post from some random user. Hence, this is where the subject of the title above comes in. I don't know exactly how legit this list is, but this Mario Emmet guy seems certain this is how Walt Disney Animation Studios arranged it (And perhaps this could be useful for this series as a whole). Without further ado... the list:

This list will be updated either prior to when a new feature is released or to correct any errors (Specifically dates).

In the meantime, feel free to enjoy, like (Or dislike for reasons people 'refuse' to be upfront about... you know who you are, so start talking), and comment to your heart's content.

This is the Dramamaster829... signing off!

*: After the 'Zootopia' movies but before 'Meet the Robinsons'.

The Emperor's New Groove is set at same year as Snow White and Sleepy Hollow?! That's crazy!

I can't believe Kuzco was having an adventure as an llama while Snow White hangs out with Seven dwarfs and a headless horseman chasing after Ichabod Crane... mind blown. 🤯

Huh. Some of these are closer together than I thought here.

7956897
Hmm, Disney animated movies set in a timeline for when they took place, that's something I never thought about before.

7956901
I couldn't believe it myself. But it would seem as though the company itself said themselves this is where it sits in the timeline. Then again, when we think of all the magical circumstances during this period (Even though Kuzco's case was slightly scientific)... it kind of makes sense.

7956905
And what was it that you previously imagined? I'd be lying if I said I wasn't curious.

I'll admit I found this surprising myself.

7956916
Who'd have thunk it? But when we think about it, this kind of makes the connection between the movies all the more intriguing. And this isn't even counting the Pixar movies.

7956897
Not a bad layout. And it's good to know which stories take place around the same year or close to each other compared to many with gaps in between them

7956936
Well, really it was the Twitter guy who found this information on Walt Disney Animation Studios and how they set up the timeline. But when you think about it, it's actually funny how the events of these movies took place during a specific year or a set of years and no one would even guess all of this was going on around that time.

7956897
One point to note: For "The Sword in the Stone" you have it at 400s. But Merlin said this in the movie: "Can't wait for the London Times - first edition won't be out for at least... 1200 years." Now, the first issue was issued on January 1, 1785, so wouldn't that mean that the movie takes place in the late 500s, not the 400s?

Second, for the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, the original is that it took place around 1790 in the late 18th century, after the Revolutionary War, not the 16th century (1500s).

Plus, some of those years seem based on the time the movies were released. My findings is that Mario Emmet should at least double-check his research before putting up something and portraying it as fact.

7956958
Also, I checked and he didn't seem to specify HOW he found this information, or offered a means to verify it.

7956997
1. I mean when we think of that line, it 'does' make sense. But that can be fixed.

2. That's a fair point. But again, it's an easy fix.

3. I never said how 'legit' this information was. But it was too intriguing to pass up. So cut me some slack, will you? But more importantly, cut this Mario guy some slack. I don't know if he can truly verify the information. I don't even know him.

7956999
Any other 'errors' you can point out?

7957009
Raya and the Last Dragon - There is no set date, as the design seems to only reflect what the world *could* have looked like thousands of years ago. So my best guess is... at least 2,000 years ago.
Mulan - Looking up the information for that, I found a TikTok video from someone who explains that Mulan takes place in the year 497 AD, during the Northern Wei dynasty (386 - 535).

7956921
Some of those ones between the 1400s and 1700s come to mind, mainly because you don't have one story in the back of your head with another, such as the idea of Sleepy Hollow taking place around the same time as the early Renaissance era films.

7957022
The Mulan one I can do... but I need you to be more specific with Raya. Otherwise, I'm keeping this there to be on the same side.

7957030
I'm doing some moving around. But unless someone is really intuitive on the possible timelines, this is all I've got to go on.

7957037
Maybe... approximately 300 BCE?

7957043
... Okay, I suppose that would make sense. I don't think there's an 'E' in 'B.C.' but what do I know about time?

7957050
BCE is essentially the same as BC, but they each mean different things.

BCE (Before Common Era) is secular
BC (Before Christ) is not so secular

One more thing: I researched on Aladdin's time period, and there's some common knowledge online to suggest that Aladdin takes place in the late 1400s, around approximately 1481.

One more thing: I also researched for Hercules, and rather than 1200 BC, the common knowledge seems to suggest that the movie takes place in Classical Greece (700 BC - 323 BC), not Mycenaean Greece (1600s BC - 1100s BC). Ballpark range is 560 BC to 323 BC, so I would say... going with an average of... 442 BC.

7957080
Okay, okay. To those two things, I’ll get to them when I can

7956897
Whoa! If this is for animated movies, I'm very curious to see what the live-action timeline is like.
I do know a few like:

1910 Mary Poppins
1916 The Happiest Millionaire
1940 Bedknobs & Broomsticks

7957591
Who knows? This is mainly focused on the 'animation' side of the spectrum, despite the animation 'elements' in the live action features.

Hmm.. I hate to burst a bubble but I believe Tarzan also took place in the Victorian times, like the late 1870s or 1880s. This is because as just Tarzan, Jane and Porter board their ship, they go on about Tarzan meeting famous people, and mention Darwin and Victoria, so it must take place between 1837 and 1882.

7958385
They're right. The official wiki page puts Tarzan (1999) in the 1880s

7958385

7958403
Okay... all right...

We'll make this change. It's no problem.

7958710
Cheers. I think the rest is spot on as well. Freaking awesome how the timeline goes. 👏

7958752
Looking at it, yes it does look spot on now. I did hear word of another timeline posted on social media. I'll look into it momentarily.

7957591
There’s a couple live action timeline entries with animated moments you forgot.

1867 Song of the South
1903 So Dear To My Heart

This was discussed in a prior post. This thread is for *only* all-animated features.

7960699
Exactly. This was a list strictly for a specific category of Disney features. Live action material wasn't included on the list.
