Ratatouille and Wall-E are overrated.
I disagree with you but that's just my opinion. I quite enjoyed Luca.
Ratatouille is fricking based frick you
don't post it
Wall-E does suck, but Ratatouille is arguably Pixar's best film.
Wall-E is great and very timely.
You are a dumb Black person
>Wall-E overrated
Not enough twee sentimentality and childish humour for you?
Not only that but they belong in the nuxar side
Ratatouille is underrated if anything and Wall-E is their best movie, deal with it
Wall-E and Up should have been short films with just the intro. The main plots of both feel like filler
The main plot of Wall-E was also kino, although it’s too thin to justify its runtime and feels flabby/padded.
I liked WALL-E I thought it was funny how fat everyone was.
Wall-E is just like me.
Ratatouille was comfy. Wall-E was kind of lame but at least they were allowed to make fun of obesity back then
Incredibles was the last 10/10 Pixar movie
> tfw its been over since 2004
“Purl” was the beginning of Pixar’s downfall
Why the FRICK is there no Toy Story in this picture or Monsters Inc?
Mike is right there you blind homosexual
Focus on movies that kids would actually like + then add in some stuff for the adults to enjoy. These days it seems like they're making movies aimed at adults reminiscing about or seeking to rewrite their childhoods and appealing to actual children is an after thought.
I disagree, focusing on kids and appealing to "childish" sensibilities is the mistake that modern Disney, Pixar, Dreamworks and the lot makes. There is no sense of subtlety, everything is over-the-top and filled with toilet humour. That's how you get the modern Disney manbaby who watches the latest Pixar movie because "omg I saw the trailer, I KNOW I'm going to cry". "Crying" is part of the hype, so that they can post on their socials and subreddits for updoots. Meanwhile you'll have kids calling these movies cringe and gay. These kinds of movies are exactly what's bringing the expectation for narratives in animation to rock bottom.
What separated classic Pixar from the rest, is that while the best stories often revolved around adults and their dreams and regrets, they never treated children like idiot dipshits. They treated children with respect, understanding that they would be able to deal with harsh themes like loneliness, separation and death. Following this understanding, kids would then be welcomed into these magical, original worlds. Sure you had the occasional visual gag, but there was also a lot of nuance.
I think the excessive need to "be funny" invades even better modern mainstream Western animation. Puss in Boots is filled with characters trying to one up each other with over-the-top yet family-friendly insults, with jokes constructed in such a way that it feels like they're waiting for the audience to finish laughing. While in PiB's case it seemed to work given the immense popular acclaim (and my German theatre laughed at every joke), I personally can't help but feel like its jokes lacked the smarter confidence of classic Pixar.
>my German theatre laughed at every joke
Nice try, I'm not falling for this
I point it out because I think it's an achievement... but the same kino laughed at every joke in the Mario movie so I don't know what to tell you.
Even if it was a fake story, it does not invalidate anything else that I said.
Nuance and subtlety are the biggest things missing from modern attempts and major contributors to them being forgettable trash. The Goofy Movie series are a perfect example of movies which benefit from a rock solid foundation of these things. Children identify with Max and his friends, somewhat get Goofy's POV but mostly regard him as antagonistic within the story. But as you get older you realize there's a whole other emotional arc and storyline baked into Goofy's actions and you identify with him more and more. When I saw the first Goofy Movie as a kid when it came out I didn't identify with or care about Goofy's arc at all, but rewatching it after having kids it hit me like a truck. Quality writing that can appeal to multiple demographics simultaneously without stepping on toes is what makes the difference between a flash in the pan and a classic.
Thank you, I appreciate the response. I agree, you do not have to sacrifice the interest of one demographic to appeal to the other, you make a great point about stepping on toes and longevity.
>not self inserting as Bigfoot
pathetic
It sucks that the black guy who was pushing so hard for this movie to be made at disney ended up going crazy.
Someone pointed out modern Pixar movies are therapy sessions for overachievers. They aren’t making movies to tell wonderous stories. They’re using their art to vent over their parents’ decisions for them.
And the message usually ends up like “Don’t listen to mom and dad. They don’t know what’s best for you. Only your immediate gratification matters.”
Pretty much. They're making movies for 20-30 year olds, instead of kids.
Illumination is beating their ass because even if it is pointless schlock, it's still generally meant for children first and foremost. Parents might not want to sit through it, but their kids are.
With Pixar, it's meant for a small contingent of people on Twitter, so parents and children are disinterested.
I take my nieces to watch anything and I think the last time they wanted to watch a Pixar film was Inside Out. Toy Story 4, Cars 3, Monsters University, all this shit was made for grown ups who grow up on them. Disney side, it was fricking Frozen II and that's because they grew up with the first one.
Soul is the best Pixar film and it’s newer
A Bug's Life is fricking trash.
>How do we bring it back?
Fire everyone with pronouns in bio.
Turning Red and the Blue israeli elf movie were unironically kino thoughever
stop pozzing everything
its really that simple
Coco was good and so was Inside Out.
Pixar presents Galaxy High School
I rewatched The Incredibles last year and seeing Mr Incredible workout and get healthy got me back into fitness, that movie gave me an entirely new motivation in life
Pure soul, pixar will never top this
I rewatched Inside out recently and its actually pretty good
really hits close to home in some parts
ITT
ONE THING EVERYONE AGREES ON
INCREDIBLES 1 IS 10/10
>and my personal fav
I haven't seen it but wasn't Toy Story 4 actually considered good by most people? It seems like it just came and went, but when I do see people talk about it they usually speak positively about it.
It was fine, but didn't need to exist cause 3 was the perfect end to the series
I'm sure people will look back at 4 fondly when the 5th one sucks
Who's the character with a red hoodie on the virgin side?
Miguel from Coco
Thanks. Probably should have been smaller.
Don't get why he is in the virgin side coco was one of the few nuPixar movies that's actually good.
Onward was decent if you ignore the pozzed stuff.
so remove the pozzed stuff?
Get rid of the feminists and diversity hires destroying it.
I hate Lightyear so much
