For me, the reason Ghibli beats out Disney is its willingness to extend its brand beyond children focused entertainment. Disney focuses on appealing to children to a fault. Look at the Black Cauldron as an example of this; a film that could have benefited greatly from a PG-13 rating and a more mature story. I don't think we'll ever see imagery like this in a Disney film.
