Ratatouille

I'm sure they'll do fine after that. Brad Bird is still with them. Realize, Incredibles and Ratatoille weren't part of the original 5 and they both rocked the house.

Yes, yes they did. I'm just so afraid of the day that I go to a pixar movie and my heart gets broken. Disney did it.

I'm not even a big Pixar fan, but this was really great; I felt like I was just swept along from start to finish. The score was just as excellent as the animation too.

For me, when disney lost it really, was when people like Eisner and others who weren't animation heads got brought it. Plus Disney as a company became less animation focused, they got into their theme parks and merchandising, and money was coming from other sources so animation took a back seat. I don't think that will happen with Pixar, well least I hope it won't. Plus it took decades for it to happen with Disney.

I'm still waiting for pixar to crash and burn. The trailer for Wall-E has me worried. Other than Brad Bird's films (And cars?) all of their original ideas will be finished with Wall-E.

I'm not worried wall-e will stink, the trailer with the stars in that little robot's eyes got me beyond excited but after that...after that....

Technically Ratatouille is Pixar's first crash and burn since it's expected to be one of the lowest selling Pixar movies in their existence. *shrugs*

However in terms of quality....Well a lot of people don't like A Bug's Life.

The rat had the best name ever, I don't really like most of the pixar films, but I actually enjoyed this quite a lot.

I'm probably going to see this 3-5 times in theaters.

I'm already at 3 myself. I need to see it more to continue living.

The part where Remy is running through the walls after he gets lost in the sewer is some fantastic camera work. The music just makes it that much better too.

I haven't gotten to see it in theaters since the sneak preview. I need to go again for sure just not sure when I'll get a chance.

One of the most interesting consequences of Disney buying Pixar was that Pixar came in and overtook the Disney animation division. From what I've read, they removed anyone who didn't study art/animation and decreed that no more direct-to-DVD sequels (Lady & Tramp 2, Cinderella 2/3) were going to be made. We'll have to see if Pixar can bring back Disney's former glory, but with upcoming projects like The Frog Princess, they may be able to pull it off.
