Question:

Would you class Pocahantas (spellng) as a musical?

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Actually, animated movies like Pocahontas can fit both the animated genre and musical genre. To be a musical, all you need is the story driven by songs; and most of these Disney (and other) films can fulfill that requirement. But genre placement is pretty subjective, so some people might just classify it as either an animated movie or an animated musical (rather than a strict musical). Personally, I'd call it an animated musical, since the animated format takes greater precedence over the music.
