        Absolute shit tier opinions. Toy Story is an almost perfect movie. Its script is much tighter than any other Pixar movie, and it’s also the funniest one by far. The only movies that are in its league are Finding Nemo and The Incredibles. Toy Story 2 and Wall-E would be in the next tier.

        What's wrong with TS4?
        To me it's a great movie about letting things go and achieving personal autonomy.

          >Turned Buzz into a bumbling moron with nothing redeeming about him
          >Turned the entire crew into an irrelevant blob
          >simping for bo is paraded as personal autonomy when it frankly isn't
          This movie was just a massive miss and spits in the face of the past 3 films that came before it.

      Genuine question, but what about Ratatoille makes it so good for you? I could never get into it but lots of people seem to put it up there above Incredibles and Monsters Inc.

        Not him, but it's a comfy setting. The Paris that maybe never existed, but is the idealized version of Paris and French culinary culture.

        I'm not him but I feel like Ratatouille is the one Pixar film that doesn't rely on emotional manipulation and has a fairly mature/adult tone to it in comparison to the others. It has some comedy but it isn't overwhelming to the point where the story is diluted by it. The setting is also quaint and enjoyable.

        After Ratatouille, Pixar started to suffer from Oscar baiting by always making sure to have 'le emotional' moment in their films to make up for the rest of the movie being good-not-great. Wall-E is sort of an exception though, and I'd argue the first 2/3 of the movie are the best of Pixar's prowess... but once the humans show up it becomes much sillier and loses it. Still a really good film, but it could've been even better.

        "Up" is a brilliant 9 minute short followed by a forgettable hour-and-a-half film. "Toy Story 3" is overrated with a villain who is a blatant rehash of Stinky Pete - but like "Up" it has enough tear-jerker moments at the end to trick people into thinking they saw something profound and deep.

          lowest IQ take on this board
          >Ratatouille is the one Pixar film that doesn't rely on emotional manipulation
          This is just patently wrong, the entire film is predicated on the audience sympathizing with Remy more and more and all of his misfortune and the consequences of his dream being realized (Linguini throwing him out in a rather callous way, then standing up for him in the end and losing the entire restaurant)
          >After Ratatouille, Pixar started to suffer from Oscar baiting by always making sure to have 'le emotional' moment in their films to make up for the rest of the movie being good-not-great.

          I actually agree here, I feel like an exploration of humanity's complete downfall without those walking beach balls in the end would have been more compelling front to back, but then EVE wouldn't exist and that would have changed the plot entirely so idk I'm pretty happy with what we got
          >"Toy Story 3" is overrated with a villain who is a blatant rehash of Stinky Pete
          ??????
          >it has enough tear-jerker moments at the end to trick people into thinking they saw something profound and deep
          Massive pseud energy (I'm so.... le strong, I don't need these stinky.... le emotions), TS3 is all about having to grow the frick up and move on, struggling to move on makes people (toys) resentful and bitter. Its profound in a way that it's a simple message like every other TS (except for 4) but is something that strongly impacts real people. But I get it, you're a tough guy and want to brag about not crying and not needed all that silly morals shit

    Finding Nemo definitely feels different than previous films (Toy Story, Bug's Life, Toy Story 2, Monsters Inc). Probably because it was the first one whose music wasn't done by Randy Newman. It's also a bit darker in content.

        Only emotionally stunted morons could possibly think it’s better. Toy Story outclasses all its sequels in every way. While I think Toy Story 2 is a good movie I have never cared for how it took the extremely whimsical and self aware Toy Story and tried to turn it into some emotional rollercoaster that takes itself far too seriously. The sequels just get worse and worse on that front, too.

    Cars 2 was their first bad movie. Easy to see why : It was directed by Bradford Lewis, a relative newbie at Pixar (joined in early 00s) who never directed anything before and whose only Pixar credit before was being the producer of Ratatouille. He wasn't up to the task of directing a film, let alone a sequel. Fortunately, he vanished from Pixar after Cars 2

    Dreamworks and PDI (Pacific Data Images) kicked Pixar's ass on the insects film category. This is a more interesting relic of 90s animation than A Bug's Life.
