Disney has a long history of producing feature films that stretch all the way back to the 1930's, and since then the studio has tallied up a list of nearly 400 films. So how long would it take to watch all of them? A long time. At 384 films over nearly 80 years, the total run time of every Disney movie comes out to 36,918 minutes. That's nearly 26 days of non-stop viewing, without any breaks. But how does that break down? More interesting than the runtime, in my opinion, is how the number of films per decade changed over the years and reflected Disney history. The 1930s were easy. In 1937 Walt Disney took his first step into the feature film business with the classic Snow White and the Sever Dwarves. It would be the only feature film he made that decade, but it'd be far from the last. Total time to watch the Disney films of the 30s? 83 minutes. The 1940s would see a total of 14 Disney films, including Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, and Bambi. Total time to watch all 14 of the 1940's Disney films? 17 hours and 52 minutes. That number would again increase in the 1950s to 29 films. The decade is home to classics like Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland along with many live action classics like 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea and Old Yeller. The time to watch all 29 films? 1 day, 16 hours, 24 minutes. By the 1960s Disney was at the top of their game with film, increasing the total for the decade yet again to 51 films. It was a decade that brought us 101 Dalmations, The Parent Trap, Mary Poppins and The Jungle Book. Unfortunately it would also be last decade in which the studio and company was headed by Walt. All 51 movies clock in at nearly 86 hours. The 1970s would be the first decade of what I like to call the "What Would Walt Do?" era. Disney leadership was frozen by the lack of Walt and without his creative leadership, the studio rather than growing just stayed the course. The 70s tallied in at 47 films, 4 less than the previous decade and while it still contained some classics like Robin Hood, Pete's Dragon, and The Rescuers, most became relatively obscure. However if you wanted to watch them all it'd take 73 hours. If the 70s was an era of Disney staying the course, the 80s was a decade of decline. At 28 films total, the list is short, but it's also worth pointing out that this was the era in which we started to see other studios open under the Disney company, such as Touchtone Pictures. In any case, watching all 28 films from the decade would only take you 44 hours and 17 minutes. Michael Eisner famously crowned the 1990s as the "Disney Decade" and he sure did mean it. Even without counting films from Touchtone, Dimension, Miramax, or the other subsidiaries, the film count for Disney pictures ballooned to 68 films, more than any other decade before it. If I were to go through all of the memorable films this decade brought us, this video would likely be twice as long. Time to watch all 68 films? 107 and a half hours. The oughts saw yet another change of leadership, from Eisner to the now CEO, Bob Iger. It also saw continued growth. At 87 films over ten years, the company was releasing 8 to 9 movies a year. It was also when we began to see film franchises spring up, such as the Pirates of Caribbean. You're going to want to set aside nearly 141 hours, which is almost 6 solid days, if you want to watch everything from that list. Which brings us to now. While we're only 6 years into the decade, the company has put out 59 films to date, which puts it on track to at the very least match the kind of numbers we saw in the last decade. It's important to note though that this decade has seen the explosion of Marvel films as well as the beginning of a new life for Star Wars, so while we might see the Disney pictures list level off, the Disney Company's list as a whole is bound to get longer. It'll take you 103 and half hours, or a bit over 4 days for you to watch everything from this decade.
