Toy Story 3 is the only one I wasn't a big fan of. It basically just lived off the nostalgia of the past two films and didn't really do much beyond that. plus it came out the same year as How To Train Your Dragon and Tangled, both better films.

... are still extremely entertaining and just a joy to watch.

Some will think Up is a borefest (I don't), or that Cars is the worst Pixar movie (I loved it), or that Monsters Inc hasn't really aged well (it hasn't, but that's always going to a be a problem for those first generations of CGI movies...)

In the end though, they've all been worth watching. Some have captured our heart, and some were 'just' entertaining, and even if they weren't entertaining for whatever reason, there would always be something amazing going on that would make you go 'wow'...

Like everyone, I have my favourites, and I have some I merely 'enjoyed' but don't have a strong desire to revisit. I think that's just normal and not really an indication about the quality of these movies, but more about personal taste, consideringe veryone seems to be mentioning different movies that were special to them.

I'm really looking forward to Brave. :)

... I loved the way it looked, I loved the characters, I loved the simple straightforward personal story, and I loved the humor.

And I'm not even a 'car person'.

I felt Wall-E was a very good movie, but I didn't feel it was an ENTERTAINING movie. It certainly managed to make me care about the character Wall-E and the ending did affect me emotionally, so it was just very well made in all areas and it had 'heart'.

That said, that same year Kung Fu Panda came out, and I thought that movie was ALOT more entertaining. It wasn't as technically brilliant. It didn't have any emotional impact. It wasn't extremely 'original' or 'daring'.

It was FUN. A whole lot of FUN. And to me, that's also very important. :)

A good comparison would be Disney's Bambi vs Emperor's New Groove. Bambi has the 'heart', but Emperor's New Groove is just entertaining throughout and can be enjoyed many times without really getting boring or stale or whatever, because it's got lots of comedy and great pacing.

I will admit that while I'm a Pixar fan. I've watched UP about 15 times (no joke) and have yet to make it all the way through.....

well cars and wall-e were not there and along with the other pixar films because those movies were easy to criticize while Up,toy story 3, monster inc., finding nemo and ratatouille were instant classics and the article purposely targeted those best pixar films like it was said in the article
