The Lion King or Balto?

The Lion King of course!
Thats the best!

[Cdot]

they're both good movies.

I only saw part of the movie Balto, not the whole movie

I like them both for different reasons. But TLK wins by far.

Balto all the way. I Iove TLK, it's story Isn't as original as Balto is.

The Lion King, definitely. Balto is an interesting character---wolf-dog hybrid, gotta love it!---but I think Shenzi, Banzai and Ed (whom I consider the crowning glory of TLK, though I'm sure I'm in the minority here) to be even more cooler, loveable, and beautiful.

Shenzi, Banzai and Ed 4ever!

I absolutely love both movies as well as the rest of the installments in each franchise.They both struck the same emotional cord in me. I voted for The Lion King because it is just more epic and amazing. However it is a very tough decision. Balto is also based (and you wouldn't believe how much creative leeway the word based gives the filmmakers) on a true story (Only The First one though). That makes it a little extra special knowing that the lead character of the movie has a real life counterpart on which he is based. Balto is one of only two other animated films that I consider to be on the same level as Lion King. The Lion King however will always be #1 to me no mater how close Balto is to that position as well.

The Lion King got my vote but Balto is also great but not as great as TLK so that's why I didn't vote for "They both are cool!"

What is the other?

[quote="EdtheHyena"] What is the other?[/quote]

Jungle Emperor Leo (The Movie, 1997), Although this is really more of an acknowledgment by me of how great the Kimba The White Lion Franchise is. I see both properties as being different enough to exist separately...Regardless of how undeniably similar they are.
