Given that Cars 2 is out on Friday, and my 3 year old is super excited,
which is your favourite/best Pixar film.
They are pretty much all fab. WALL-E is my 3 year old, the incredibles, my husbands and finding Nemo ,mine.
Which is the best?!

In our house it's the Toy Story trilogy and Wall-E. We only have Monsters, Inc. on a crappy old video that needs replacing! DD2 has the DVD of Pixar short films and loves it.

Too difficult a question to answer. :D

The pixar short films are great. My DD used to like them. Love Nemo, Toy story (1, 2 and 3) adn Cars, too hard to answer

I love Pixar films. I think m favourite is Monsters Inc, dont know how many times ive seen it! Second would be UP, although Toy story could be a tie! Didnt think much of Wall E.

Toy Story 3. I cried so much in the pictures that the manager came up to me in the middle of the film with a box af Kleenex: "are you alright, madam?" blush grin

I like these.
I just went to see Cars 2, despite some iffy reviews, it's really good. I've got a three year old, and to start he was fed up of the adverts and wanted to go home. Then he was sick because he got himself worked up. But we did watch it and we all really liked it. So please if you have young kids they will enjoy it.
Don't expect it to be "deep" though or sad.

Too hard to pick a favourite! I have watched Finding Nemo/Monsters Inc/Wall-E/Up/Toy Story 1,2 & 3 so many times I know all the words. I still get a bit choked at the end of TS 3.

Toy Story 3 & the shorts

Monsters Inc is definitely my all-time DP favourite, I'm really surprised they've not made another actually. Followed very closely by Toy Story 3 which I actually cried at! blush

The Incredibles for style.

The short films are brilliant. They get up and coming new people at pixar to make them to see what they can do.

Toy Story 3. It's so perfect. I cry every time.

happywheezer Sat 23-Jul-11 14:04:31

The new Barbie and Ken one before Cars2 is really excellent. I can see them making more of these. Perhaps to make Toy story 4.

Is Rio pixar? It made me cry blush.

Oh yes and the Barbie and Ken animation was brilliant! Ds was going on about there should be a Toy Story 4 and I said there couldn't be, that was it and he said well they could do it with Bonnie and they did, he was very pleased with himself.

Nemo
All the way

I also like up but I cry so much!

The Incredibles hands down.

I didn't really like Ratatouille, Wall-e was ok, Incredibles I just, like, Up! really didn't do anything for me (odd, considering I was pregnant at the time) have yet to see Cars/2 because DS2 was too old for it by the time it came out...

My favs though, with a five way tie! <cheats>

A Bugs Life
Toy Story 1&2 (3 just didn't seem to hit quite the spot, for me)
Monsters, Inc.
Finding Nemo

Can quote all of 'em, word for word.

Wall-E without a doubt! Closely followed by both Monster Inc and Finding Nemo. I do love Pixar, much to DH's annoyance. grin

LivingDead Sat 22-Oct-11 14:58:21

Probably have to be Finding nemo, I know I'm odd but I really dislike the Toy Story films, Monsters Inc is good, the others meh.

I did really like How to train your dragon and Meet the Robinson's though, dc's also love despicable me.

The Birds (short). Laughed so much the kids disowned me. They still talk about it now. Monsters Inc otherwise.

MrsKitty Sat 22-Oct-11 15:06:18

1. UP- I've never cried so much during a film, not helped by the fact that during the hospital scene during the beginning my dads chimes in with "Thats how youe Grandma used to look at Grandpa when she was in hospital" I had full on racking sobs for the first forty minutes! However I love the story, Russell and the dog.
2. Wall-e, so beautiful
3. Toy Story trilogy
4.Finding Nemo
5. Monsters Inc.
