    Ellen Degeneres annoyed the fuck out of me, and I liked the premise much better when it was used in An American Tail.

    Absolutely love Pixar in general, though.

    Man, fuck American Tale. They aren't even comparable storywise anyway. American Tale is about a family of rodents personified as immigrants while Nemo is about a fish father trying to find his captured fish son. Where is do you see the same premise?

    Well good, I'm sure they'll do a good job now that they've got the "real" team back on it.

    Cars is the least rad of Pixar's movies, but because Pixar's standards are so goddamned high, a weak Pixar movie is still a good movie in general.

    I don't think it's been said in this thread yet, but Wall-E is going to be almost completely without dialog, from what I've read.

    Also, Ratatouille was fucking fantastic.

    Pixar's movies trounce every other CG animated movie so soundly, it's like Bruce Lee fighting a strip-mall karate school instructor.

    One of my most favorite things about Ratatouille was the little proverbial bitch-slap at the end of the credits to all the other CG movies. It was a little sign that said something like "Made with 100% REAL animation. No motion capture was used in the making of this film."

    John Lasseter and Brad Bird are the best things to happen to American animation since Walt Disney

    To this day I still read Disney as "Gisney".

    Only Pixar movie I hated was Cars. Never even finished watching it.

    Also, I'm hoping this new traditionally animated Disney movie doesn't blow.

    Edit: Wow, IGN's website can suck a cock. I can't watch the video with it open as it makes my computer come to a crawl.

    I liked toy story, and still like it more then most other pixar movies.

    Honestly, I don't love the first Toy Story near as much as the second one.

  • The_ScarabThe_Scarab Registered User regular
    I havent seen Ratatouille yet. Is it good?

    I really really enjoyed the incredibles but was totally meh to Cars.

    Also I agree with Geek (I would be mad not to)

    Pixar movies even when not on form are still a completely different league than the rest.

    scarab you have mental problems
  • Bad-BeatBad-Beat Registered User regular
    Dammit, this film looks good. I'm probably going to end up watching this.

    How can that happen to a person?

    Ratatouille is the best Pixar film yet made

    in my opinion, it is approaching Miyazaki quality

    YES, YOU SHOULD SEE IT

    Wall-E looks amazing in all possible ways.

    They're getting too good with this CG thing; and the best part is, I reckon video games will look like that in about 40 years.

    Remember when Sony had the emotion engine coming out and were promising toy story-like graphics? Yeah, that was awesome.

    Toy Story worked because at the time all CG looked like plastic (it was a lighting/texture issue). Instead of trying to make photo-realistic imagery they went with plastic toys and stylized characters. Very few cg movies or games look great and when they do they are a big risk (see Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within).

    Pixar, while detailed and amazing animation, never goes for the photo-realism. They go with goofy, fun, stylized characters in elaborate settings.

    I agree with this in terms of their characters, and mostly their settings, but some of the dishes in Ratatouille looked so real I felt like I could have taken a bite out of them

    i love that scene at the end

    the ship blasting out the atmosphere and it goes through the smog and a billion satellites and bits of space junk get blown out

    touches like that

    Ratatouille was pretty much their best one since Toy Story 1/2.

    Or maybe Iron Giant

    or Babe

    but those weren't Pixar.

    Very good animated flicks, though.

    the duck in Babe... oh golly, I nearly peed myself watching that one scene.

    Your fuckin' family's dug into the Southie projects like ticks. You, however, grew up on the North Shore, huh? Well, la-di-fuckin'-da. You were kind of a double kid, I bet, right? Huh? One kid with your old man, one kid with your mother. You're upper-middle class during the weeks, then you're droppin' your "R"s and you're hangin' in the big, bad Southie projects with your daddy on the weekends. I got that right?

    pretty much all the closeups of the animals when they're talking were animated.

    or did you think they taught dogs and pigs to talk?

    I think I've liked every Pixar movie I've seen.

    I thing Toy Story 2 is the only one I haven't seen yet.

    We saw the Incredibles about a hundred times in the theater.

    Oh God yes!

    I was getting that impression from the trailer but then when he says "Waaaalll-EEEE" at the end I was afraid. I'd LOVE to see a full-length pixar movie about a robot with minimum dialog. I think it would be pretty cool.
