I'd put Wall-E first actually. The nearly silent opening 30 or 45 minutes were great imo. Really showed how you can hold people's interest just by playing to their curiosity and withholding information in the proper way. Of course I like several old Silent Films so whatever.

- Great -
1. A Bug's Life (very underrated)
2. Toy Story
- Very good -
3. Finding Nemo
4. Up (prolly more for sentiment, as I had lost one set of grandparents within the year)
- Were good, but not great -
5. Ratatouille
6. Toy Story 2
7. Cars
- Didn't really like -
8. Wall-E
9. The Incredibles
10. Monsters Inc.

I'd imagine TS3 being placed somewhere above Cars.

1. WALL-E (by FAR, their most impressive film visually. Chances are, if you didn't like it, it's out of evilness or brainlessness or both. No need to be butthurt over its calling out the WASP/amok capitalist culture)
2. Toy Story 1
3. Ratatouille
4. Monsters Inc.
5. Finding Nemo
6. Up
7. Toy Story 2
8. The Incredibles
9. Cars

I don't think I've seen Bug's Life in its entirety. I think the gap (on my list) b/n 7 and 8 is monumentally huge.

I need to rewatch most of these as i have forgot alot of them but in the Toy Story series I have to say Toy story 1 and Toy story 3 were amazing while Toy story 2 was still really good.

ts 3 was really touching lol, alot of the people in the theatre i was in were crying especially if you were a older teen/younger adult growing up w/ andy.

I have yet to see a Pixar movie that I didn't think was a very-good-to-great movie. And even though I put Cars near the bottom of my list, I think it gets a bad rap, as is usually the case with any movie that depicts non-metropolitan communities and lifestyles in a semi-positive light.

Or maybe I was looking forward to laughs and heart warming moments and instead got a 2001: A Space Odyssey type first 40 minutes. I loved 2001 but when I watch a Pixar movie I expect actual dialogue

I regret to distill certain thematic elements in WALL-E (or any Pixar film) into a term as kitschy and cliche and stupid as 'heart-warming' but if you found WALL-E lacking in emotion, that's your own problem.

Likewise, your personal expectations for dialogue matter not. There's nothing in Pixar's rule book that makes dialogue exclusive to the first forty minutes of their films. Nor any critical school, other than your own, that demands it. I'd suspect your inability to find emotional weight in WALL-E stems from your lack of interest in creativity and an attention span that can't be held without voluminous dialogue and heavy handed plot points being hurled at you. What made WALL-E so charming and entertaining was that it was able to create a transference of absolutely human emotion within a framework of robotic characters and near silent animation. It was a stunning feat. Too bad you missed it, but again, that's a you problem. Growing up might help some.

And yes, it is spot on to say that the animation detail in WALL-E absolutely blows Pixar's other work out of the water.

I ranked the OG Toy Story higher than I should have. Objectively, Ratatouille is probably better art, but I get nostalgic over the first Toy Story. I think that and the fact that it was the first (at the time highly original) Pixar feature length, holds a lot of weight.

Can't believe The Incredibles is getting so little love. The style/look of that one, and its use of humor, still blows me away every time I catch it on cable. Not as poignant as Nemo, Wall-E, Up!, or Ratatouille, of course, but does what it wants to do amazingly well.

The Incredibles had a great look to it visually. Wall-E was great because it found alternative ways to tell a story in the first half of the movie. Plus, the lighting was great in the movie too. While the Pixar movies are that, movies, I'd like to think that Wall-E was a film. It's by far my favorite Pixar movie. People look at my funny because I actually rave about the movie when they ask.

The Incredibles is highly entertaining too. I did find that there are a lot of deahs in the movie for it being a kids movie.

My kids watch Up all the time on Netflix, although I still have yet to see it.

Yeah, the first half of the movie is in fact the best part, but the whole movie is good. I really like the score and actually have the first song when Wall-E is introduced during the title sequence as my message tone for my texts.

Every time someone texts my son points at my phone and says "Wall-E!"

To be honest there's not a movie in that group that I didn't think was terrific. Ask me tomorrow and my order might change because they're that close. If I was to rank them each on a scale of 1 to 10, with ten being the best movie I've seen they'd all be between 8.5 and 9.5.

WALL-E was easily the most heart warming of all the PIXAR films.

If you didn't feel that way, have you ever even been in love?

WALL-E absolutely loved EVE, and was just happy being around her, and being together, even when she was "shut off".......

and they pulled all of this with silent robots.

You have to have a cold heart to hate WALL-E. He was cute, lovable..... heck, even Mo the little cleaning robot is cute when he says his name. "Mo!"

and the first 30-40 minutes of the film, when it was mostly silent, was the best part.

ALSO, The Incredibles was a great movie, underrated in this thread.

1) WALL-E
2) Ratatouille
3) The Incredibles

Brad Bird is hysterical in this...

"yipe! yipe! yipe! yipe!"

just perfectly describes the entertainment industry. Pixar is a miracle, not because they make hit after hit, but because they've figured out that you make hit after hit by focusing on story and quality, not by focusing on making hit after hit.

Disney has been showing the Pixar movies every night and the the following morning. I missed the Incredibles but have Ratatouille and Wall-E on my DVR. After re-watching Wall-E with my kids this morning, I've further set on this being my favorite Pixar movie. Such a great movie. I love how they found alternative ways to tell the back story with billboards, holograms and music, and how the characters relate what they're thinking with actions and "expressions" and sound.

I'm a Pixar affectionado but like a lot of us have not seen Cars 2 yet.

Can some of you long time Pixars who saw it weigh in?

The one review i read resonates and i hope its not true. Reviewer said Pixar basically joined the Hollywood-Phonywood sellout crowd in that the script was made purely to sell a bunch of Mater crap merchandise. Like wayy overdone to feature Mater while downplaying any other character.
