Pixar! Their Films, Your Favorites, and More

Apparently the dinosaur movie they were doing was supposed to be out this year but it got pushed back? Oh well, at least the next film out won't be a sequel.

[Avaitor]

Yep, this is the first year since 2005 that there won't be a Pixar movie released.

What's their reasoning for not having it out this year?

The dinosaur movie was supposed to be out this year but had production problems that pushed it back. So, no Pixar film this year.

Unfortunately, since Pixar movies are the few things I go to see in the theater that aren't adaptions.

[Daikun]

Pixar films have been rather below-the-gold-standard recently, so they could probably use the year off. It's for the best.

It'll also be fun to see the Motion Picture Academy panic while their precious Oscar default contender bows out.

I'd agree if you meant everything other than Brave. That one was great.

It was good, but not Pixar gold standard. It really could've been much better.

[talonmalon333]

That depends. What would you qualify as the Pixar gold standard?

[Dr. Insomniac]

Not Cars 2.

[talonmalon333]

In that case, everything is golden standard. Even the first Cars, maybe.

Well don't forget, they didn't even nominated Monsters U this year.

Interesting. I thought they would do that.

Toy Story

[talonmalon333]

This is how it goes for me.

Tier 1 (Golden Standard): Toy Story, Toy Story 3, Toy Story 2, Up
Tier 2: WALL-E, Finding Nemo, Brave, The Incredibles
Tier 3: Monsters Inc., A Bug's Life, Ratatouille
Tier 4: Cars, Cars 2

[LumRanmaYasha]

I'd put Wall-E in the first tier, but other than that, I can agree with those rankings.

[Avaitor]

And swap Monsters Inc. and Brave around.
