I just can’t believe why people would hate Cars so much. When it came out, it got an average rating of 4.5 stars out of 5, and now that’s dropped down to 4 out of 5. That’s still pretty good, no? 
And my least favorite? Monsters, Inc. I don’t know why, it just is. 
But it’s still good. 
Wow, people don’t like A Bug’s Life? I thought it was great actually. My favorite Pixar film.
My least favorite is Cars. I don’t like Mater or Larry the Cable Guy. I also don’t like crappy country-pop music so most of the soundtrack is pretty bad in my opinion. John Mayer is an amazing musician but I don’t like “Route 66”. “Daughters”, “Waiting on the World to Change” and his cover of the Tom Petty classic “Free Fallin’” are much better.
Yeah I’ll never understand what people were expecting from Cars that they apparently didnt get. I guess with Cars you either related to it or you didnt. There doesnt seem to be much middle ground. But I knew coming into this thread that Cars would be high on the list, if not the top spot. I could say A Bugs Life, but since I’ve never seen it, I cant fairly judge it. (yeah, to anyone who hasnt heard, I know it’s apparently a decent film, but I’ve got major fear of bugs and things smaller than a peanut, so I dont expect I’ll ever see it)
Before I do say what my least fav is I will say I do like it, and was lots better than a host of other movies. It’s just the one I like the least, was the least interested in, and really it was a tough choice between that and a couple others. Yeah, my least fav is Ratatouille (Sorry Mitch). It’s good and all that, but whatever. I’m not into rats, or France, or cooking so I didnt get as much out of it. In fact, I’ve only watched it a few times since I’ve gotten it. If I wanna watch a Pixar movie there are a slew of others I’d pick to watch first. The movie’s not without merit, but I guess I just couldnt get into the story or relate as much with Ratatouille.
Only now I got the feeling that the life passed by me. From the list I have only (completely) seen Wall-e (fav fav fav), Ratatouille, Finding Nemo, Monsters, Inc (far far childhood) and… that’s all. Thus I won’t vote 
PS. I have partially seen The Incredibles and I didn’t like it. 
It’s a tie between A Bug’s Life and Cars. I vote for A Bug’s Life for the poll. As Rac_Rules said, it’s not as magical as other Pixar films. Well, don’t get me wrong. ABL and Cars are my FAVORITE films. It’s just that they aren’t my MOST favorites.
I think it’s quite interesting that there’s not a single person (so far) that dislikes Toy Story the most. I guess because it was Pixar’s first film, you’ve sort of got to love it at least a bit! 
Because it’s impossible to not like WALL-E of course! Nah, just kidding
I voted for The Incredibles dodges tomatoes. It just wasn’t doing it for me.
My least favorite is Toy Story 2. I only saw it once or twice, and that was way back when it was in theaters and after it had just come out on tape (VHS, anyone?). I don’t remember much about the plot, except for Woody being kidnapped, a fat guy, an airport, and a toy store. I loved Toy Story as it was, and didn’t feel like there needed to be any sort of sequel, and I remember sitting through Toy Story 2 thinking wth the entire time. I just didn’t enjoy it.
I’m kind of suprised that A Bug’s Life is getting so much unlove. It’s one of my favorites, and real bugs freak me out like no other.
The other one I’m not too big on is Ratatouille. It was cute and I enjoyed it, but I don’t know. It wasn’t a stand-out.
People are just too critcal.If you ask me all the pixar films are good. 
For me, my least favorite is Cars. Didn’t really get into it much. I don’t know what it is, but it just doesn’t really appeal to me much. It is good in its own right, but not my favorite.
I’ll have to really think this over if I’m going to make a good decision… Hey, why don’t we summarize each film’s literal themes? OH BOY! This’ll be a blast!
Toy Story: allegory – friendship can overcome differences.
A Bug’s Life: the individual holds significant promise for change.
Toy Story 2: temporal nature of valuables; “YOU ARE A TOY!…”
Monster’s Inc.: ethics of scaring or something… I guess it’s something like “Fear makes us feel our humanity” (Disraeli) or something.
Finding Nemo: not sure either – in parenting there exists a subtle balance of freedom and restraint or something like that…
The Incredibles: hubris, family, reminiscence – oh tonyloaf this film has a lot to say.
Cars, Ratatouille, WALL-E: ummmm… I don’t know. Help!
I don’t know enough about the last three films as much to be able to comment on their themes. I based my vote on the thematic merits of the first six films.
Cars - You gotta stop and smell the roses.
Ratatouille - Not everyone can be a great chef, but a great chef can come from anywhere. And you gotta do what you love, darn the consequences.
Wall-E - Love is universal. Also we are relying far too much on technology to do our work for us rather then using technology to work with us. Also be mindful of you consumption.

I never voted on this. 
My least favorite would have to be The Incredibles. For many, many reasons.
I would’ve said Cars but it doesn’t annoy me as much as The Incredibles does.
Toy Story caught my attention the least.
Second least favorite would be Cars. Only because the story isn’t as great as the others. Though I don’t want to say that it was the worst to date… I just thought it was a little boring, same with Toy Story. Actually Toy Story sort of annoyed me at times…
Everybody always picks A Bug’s Life. 
I bet half of them haven’t even re-watched it since it came out. I hated it at first, but if you’re mature enough now and you re-watch it, you’d realize how much heart it has and how much it does not suck.
Finding Nemo. The first couple of times watching it were good, but once I got older, it kinnda got annoying and more like a girl movie (no offense to any dudes who like it.) But… I havn’t seen it in a while so I might change my mind if I see it again.
I realize that once you re-watch an old Pixar movie when you are older, you understand it better (and actually watch the movie this time. As young kids, we don’t actually pay attention to a movie, we just see it.)
Why must everyone hate Cars!!! Ugh! I feel so alone! I’m practically the only one on here who thinks it’s Pixar’s best.
I have to say The Incredibles. I’m the odd-bean out, I know. I like the movie everyone hates and hates the movie everyone loves.
If it’s any consolation, it makes me equally sad to see Finding Nemo and A Bugs Life voted as least favorites. Both were quite compelling, touching films (I mean, c’mon, Flik gets beating to a pulp defending what he believes in! ABL is such a dreadfully underrated film).
Anyhow, my vote went to Ratatouille. Why? My older brother is somewhat responsible. He pointed out the selfishness of the characters in the film. The more he explained why he disliked the movie, the more I agreed with him. Don’t get me wrong: I like this movie, but I don’t love it.
I agree with your entire post, Castoro Chiaro- firstly, on the A Bug’s Life front, as it really is such an underappreciated film that has more power and value than most would like to believe, and second on the Ratatouille front, which appears to be a good film at face-value but the more you think about it, the more it doesn’t live up to its expectations. None of the main characters are appealing (in my opinion) and it didn’t leave me feeling like I’d just seen an amazing film. It’s not my least favourite Pixar film, but it’s my biggest disappointment from them.
I have to with A Bug’s life. I’ve seen the movie plenty of times with the mindset of “Let’s give it a chance!” but every time i’m left thinking “Well, it was okay…” One of the main problems was that it had to follow Toy Story, which is pretty much a modern classic as far as animation and movies in general go. The impact it had on animation was quite something.
I can’t say Cars because I decided to watch the movie a few years ago expecting to see Pixar’s failure. I have no interest in cars whatsoever, so i wasn’t too confident going in.
But midway through watching the movie something just seemed to click with me to the point where I now find myself watching it more than The Incredibles and Ratatouille, which are both films that i very much enjoy.
I think Cars deals with the theme of Neglect just as well as Toy story 2 does. Well, not quite as well but it still services the movie to have a theme. Also it has some great stuff to do with Morality and first impressions. Still, I don’t know why i’m trying to defend Cars so much, as i still have to state why A Bug’s life did nothing for me
I think my main problem with A bug’s life could very well be a lot of the characters, which is as guilty of just as many stereotypes as Cars. But I think i find Flick to be generally quite annoying and Atta seems like a right so and so
Although, with that said the movie is still heads and tails among most of the output in animation today. It’s just not one that i ever go back to for repeat viewings, where as Cars very much has that small town community feel to it that i can relate to.
