Yeah, I thought I'd already made a thread for this. Didn't really go anywhere, though.

That looks awesome, and Eddie Asner is in it!

Seriously though, how the hell can one studio (Pixar) be this good? They HAVE to come out with a bad, or at least mediocre, movie at some point right? Right?

You know, I was actually never a huge fan of their earlier work, which still seemed obsessed with sassy anthropomorphisms and other merchandising-friendly banalities that I hate in all the other CG cartoons out there.

But starting with The Incredibles, they seem to have gotten a lot more creative and the credibility they had already earned with the public helped give them the freedom to take more risks, and now I really like what they've been doing.

Personally not a fan of cars. I am really looking forward to this though.

Cars was horrible, anyone who says otherwise is wrong.

[Space Pirate Roberts]

Cars was great, anyone who says otherwise is a liberal elitist with no respect for the small-town values of real Americans.

Of course I was being intentionally hyperbolic with how I phrased that, but I do believe most of the hate for it comes down to city-folk snobbery.

[bbobb]

I grew up in Iowa, I ain't no city-folk.

Cars didn't suck, except in comparison to the rest of Pixar's output. Monsters Inc and Cars are Pixar's worst movies, and no other studio out there can say that their worst is as good as forgettably mediocre.

Up looks good, though. Maybe not Wall-E good, as has been mentioned, but still tons of fun. I love grumpy bastard humor.

Bug's Life and Cars are Pixar's worst movies

Fixed, you infidel.

[Space Pirate Roberts]

Seriously. Until Wall-E, Monsters Inc. was my favorite.
