What you like and hate about each movie

Let’s see…
Toy Story
Like: I don’t know why, but I found Woody’s temper to be funny.
Dislike: Mostly some of the way the humans looked, but it wasn’t too bad. :slight_smile: and I don’t really care for the soundtrack, except I love the songs.

A Bug’s Life
Like: I like the part in the sombrero! And, it’s fun watching the movie zoomed in at a random part of the screen. You can see some really funny looking ants at some parts!
Dislike: Lack of emotion.

Toy Story 2
Like: The new characters were great, and I love Wheezy’s version of You’ve Got a Friend in Me.
Dislike: I kind of wish they had showed the gang going home.

Like: I like the scenery, the music, and the characters a lot.
Dislike: Like Toy Story 2, I kind of wish they had showed Dory, Marlin, and Nemo going home.

The Incredibles
Like: The music was really cool, especially during the 100 Mile Dash scene.
Dislike: I think it’s on TV too often.

Like: The characters are pretty much all awesome.
Dislike: Hm… not really anything. But POYSC is way too catchy. :stuck_out_tongue:

Up
Like: The awesome doggies. And everything else.
Dislike: Nothing really, but some of those scenes on the blimp were pretty freaky on the big screen. (Well, they’re freaky if you’re scared of heights, like me.)

Toy Story 3
Like: The opening and ending scenes were pure genius. But I really liked all of it except for the monkey.
Dislike: Thanks to Toy Story 3, I now am finding myself tearing up at movies I never thought were very emotional. :laughing:

Wow. You guys posted a lot. :laughing:

Toy Story
Like: Woody, the whole idea, Andy, Sid
Dislike: Buzz, Mr. Potatohead, and Bo annoy me at times, and again, the people look funny

Like: the whole movie. I love Flik, Francis, and allo the bugs I can think of…
Dislike:…I guess the way Atta treats Flik at the start, even if it was necessary for the plot.

Like: EVERYTHING!!! Woody, Buzz stopped annoying me, I <3 Jessie, and Bullseye’s adorable, and ZURG!! <3
Dislike: Stinky Pete and Al :stuck_out_tongue: if I must choose

Monsters, Inc.

Like: The whole movie, sorry :laughing:
Dislike: Honestly, the only thing I don’t love about this movie is how all the fans defend Randall. It gets old. :confused:

Finding Nemo

Like: This is hard for me. Dory is really funny, and I like her personality, Marlin, the music
Dislike: Darla, Nemo, the movie does get boring near the middle

The Incredibles

Like: The family, the story, the theme I got from it
Dislike: Mirage, Mr. Huph, how everyone loves Violet :frowning:

Like:Lightning, Mater, the story

Ratatouille

Like: Remy, Linguini, Collette…yeah, I just like the whole thing.
Dislike: Nothing, but I agree that Alan Rickman should have been Ego

Wall-E
Like: Wall-E/EVE
Dislike: It’s a bit dry at times, and EVE’s really mean to Wall-E for a while

Up
Like: Carl, Ellie, Dug, Russell
Dislike: I wanted Muntz and Carl to be friends. :frowning:

Toy Story 3
Like: The crying scenes for me, Woody’s leadership, Bo Peep’s absence

TOY STORY 3

Like:Andy… <3 Everything
Dislike:No Bo Peep,Mr.Potatohead,Lotso…

Haha, I love how you and I love/hate the opposite things! :laughing: You like Mirage, and she’s my least favorite character, and you dislike that Bo was gone. :laughing: I don’t know why, but I find how our posts are like mirrors very amusing. XD

You know what I was just thinking of that…that is funny…I can’t stand Mater but you love him…You can’t stand Sally but I love her… :laughing: :laughing:

Well, I like Sally, and I understand why she does what she does. She just annoys me a bit in the beginning, like Atta, EVE, etc.

Yeah…out of all of them Atta annoyed me the most… :confused:

Yeah, honestly, any love interest that behaves like that annoys me. Astrid is a good non-PIXAR example. :unamused:

Well I can see if the main character was like Lightning or Naveen guys who need a reality check…but guys like Flik…nah… :confused:

Naveen annoyed me really bad. I liked Tiana, though. She rarely annoyed me. And she was pretty, and I like her dress. <3

This is really, really long. I didn’t mean for it to get this long, but I got carried away. Don’t say I didn’t warn you, and read at your own risk. :laughing:

Toy Story

Like: Everything about this film just oozes with nostalgia. It’s hard to imagine that anyone could not like it, and yet my best friend hates it! :frowning: It tells such an original story, with wonderful characters and an incredible amount of growth in Buzz and Woody. I love all of the characters in this movie. :slight_smile:

Dislike: I really can’t dislike the animation, because it needs to be understood that technology wasn’t as advanced in the late 80s, early 90s when it was created. It is choppy and plain compared to today’s computer graphics, but it doesn’t bother me. I guess I really don’t like how Woody was such a huge jerk, but it gets worked out of him by the end of the movie. And it was needed to properly tell the story. :stuck_out_tongue: The only characters I don’t like are Bo Peep, Scud, and for whatever reason Ducky annoys me. :laughing:

A Bug’s Life

Like: Absolutely everything. I really can’t say a bad word about this movie, and I can’t understand where the lack of appreciation for it comes from. :confused: It has such a touching and endearing story. I suppose I love it so much because it was such a huge part of my childhood. <3

Dislike: Ugh, that’s hard. P.T. Flea can be a bit annoying, but I find him to be more hilarious than annoying most of the time. I do hate how at the end, he thinks his circus troupe is in danger and tries to “kill” the bird, which completely foils the ants’ carefully crafted plan that had been working smoothly right up until then.

Toy Story 2

Like: I love the touching moment near the middle of the movie where Jessie is recalling memories of Emily. The song by Sarah McLaughlin moves me to tears every single time.

Dislike: It’s my favorite of the three, but I don’t find the plot as appealing as the first TS. (Figure that one out. :laughing:) And there’s times where I just wanna strangle the Prospector. What an idiot.

Monsters Inc.

Like: The introduction of this movie is probably my favorite out of all the Pixar movies. It’s such a departure from the norm, and yet gives the vibe of a Disney short film while still maintaining originality. The whole concept of the film and the plot line are gems. Not to mention it’s just outright hilarious. :laughing:

Dislike: Randall and Waternoose’s selfishness and willingness to hurt an innocent human child for their own gain. Don’t tell me otherwise, you can’t dice it any other way. On that note, I agree with IV that the rabid Randall defenders can really rub me the wrong way, especially the fact that they defend his selfish actions and try to justify them. I also don’t like how much flack Mike gets. He too gets selfish near the middle of the movie when they’re banished, but that simply shows that he’s a character with flaws, who doesn’t take to change well. I mean, imagine if you were thrown out of everything you’ve ever known and made to accept this as your future? You’d be a little angry, too! xD

Finding Nemo

Like: I can’t pick apart this movie. I really can’t. Father-son relationships in movies hit a chord with me, and the opening sequence never fails to bring tears to my eyes. Marlin’s sheer determination to find his son, and press through adversity until he gets there is something to be admired of a character. His overprotectiveness is simply a result of hurt and tragedy, but by the end of the film he’s learned to let Nemo “swim in the deep end”. The music is phenomenal, the characters are so full of personality, and of course the story is beautiful. Not to mention, it’s one of the most-quoted Pixar movies I know. :stuck_out_tongue:

Dislike: Not much. It bothered me a bit when Marlin didn’t take Dory’s word not to swim over the trench, but it was rooted in doubt and he didn’t want to take the word of someone who usually forgot what she said, which is understandable.

The Incredibles

Like: There’s a few funny jokes in it, and that kid on the tricycle at the end makes me laugh every time. :stuck_out_tongue:

Dislike: The rest of the movie. Sorry. :laughing: The characters aren’t at all relatable, which is partly why I can’t enjoy it. Bob is selfish enough to put himself before family and Violet’s overly closed-off self is painfully annoying. I don’t find the plot to be all that engaging, either.

Cars

Like: I have so many great memories of this movie. Sometimes just hearing certain phrases or bits of music from it cause surges of memories to come flooding back. I love the Radiator Springs crew, especially Red, Luigi, and Guido. :slight_smile: But my favorite character in the entire movie was Doc Hudson. Hands-down.

Dislike: Most of the rest of it. Lightning makes my skin crawl most of the time. He’s so stuck up and arrogant it’s not even enjoyable. Even though he “learned his lesson” by the end of the movie, I can’t find him to be appealing as a character at all. Well, I guess the correct way to say what I mean is, he feels “fake”, I guess. There’s nothing about Sally’s personality that makes her shine. The movie is unbelievably slow in all the places where it shouldn’t be, especially since all the commercials and podcasts jacked it up to be this action-packed, fast-paced film, which it really wasn’t. I really, really hate the disrespect Lightning has for Doc. I can’t even put it into words. Nothing bothers me more than the young showing no respect for their elders. Mater can get quite annoying, too, but I don’t hate him entirely. I also dislike how over-merchandised it is.

(Now don’t tell me I don’t like this movie at all. I do have some very fond, nostalgic memories of it, but I just can’t get into it or enjoy it anywhere near like I did when I was younger.)

Ratatouille

Like: Absolutely. Everything. About. This. Movie. If it hadn’t been for the release of this film, I would have never pursued art in the way that I did, nor would I have grown to love it and develop a passion and skill for drawing and writing, as well as film as a whole. I would have never been the artist I am today if it weren’t for the passion that was fueled in me after seeing this movie. It has so many beautiful, encouraging messages, and every time I watch it to this day, I’m uplifted and reminded of my purpose in this world. It hits home with me on a personal level, because I come from a very small town with small mentalities. So to hear the phrase, “Not everyone can become a great artist, but a great artist can come from anywhere” has always been especially encouraging to me. On another note, Alfredo Linguini is still one of my favorite animated characters ever. There’s something so endearing about his awkward, yet innocent, personality. <3

Dislike: Some of the characters are quite annoying, like Skinner. I absolutely hate the way he unfairly treats Alfredo, and how utterly selfish he is; that he’s willing to ruin this poor, unstable young man’s life only so he doesn’t have to give up a position of power. The lawyer, Talon Labarthe, the Health Inspector, and Francois the frozen-food concept guy are just plain irritating. :laughing: I’ve also lost all respect for Colette, and despise how she gets Alfredo wrapped around her finger when she clearly doesn’t love him for who he is. Ugh, I could rant on that forever, but I won’t. -___-

WALL-E

Like: Everything. I’ve written so much that I almost can’t come up with adjectives I haven’t used already. :laughing: This is another one of the Pixar movies that stuck with me, and grabbed a hold of my heart in that same gripping way that Ratatouille did. The music, the scope of the film, the beautiful character arcs, and the unlikely romance of two sentient machines - who later teach wayward humans how to do the same - somehow is just so captivating and enchanting. I give lots of credit to the character development of Captain McCrea, too. He doesn’t get enough love or attention, and I really see him as an integral part of the story. WALL-E stumbled across his path, and left things in his wake that helped McCrea to discover his forgotten past on his own. It wasn’t the robots who brought them back to Earth, it was their captain, who made the decision in his heart and knew it was the right thing to do.

Dislike: GO-4 is such an obnoxious, bratty little robot. I didn’t feel bad for him at all when he “died”. XD

Up

Like: It is without a doubt one of Pixar’s most emotional films ever created to date. Carl and Ellie’s relationship is beautiful, and reminds me of my own grandparents and their timeless relationship. Russell is such a cute character, too. You can’t help but just love him. :smiley:

Dislike: There was just something about this movie that doesn’t connect with me. Despite it being emotionally appealing, it doesn’t stick with me. I never liked Muntz or his dogs, for some reason. I can’t even explain why because I’m so burnt out from writing so much. D’:

Toy Story 3

Like: I’m not going to make this long and drawn-out like the rest of them… simply because I’ve been sitting here for over an hour typing. xDD I guess what I really like about TS3 is Bonnie and Spanish Buzz. And Mr. Tortilla Head. Not kidding, that’s pretty much it. :stuck_out_tongue:

Dislike: It wasn’t as amazing as I expected it to be, for many reasons which I’ve explained before elsewhere. Woody was unusually selfish and gloom-and-doom, which I hated. The ending was far too melodramatic, I didn’t find the characters relatable at all, Lotso’s a jerk, Ken is just… eughh… and the music. Ugh, the music.

The end. Omg I’m tired. D’:

little chef

trying to resist urge to reply

Wow. :open_mouth: :laughing: But yeah, the way everyone defends Randall annoys me. And Mike is awesome, if not perfect.

I don’t know how to answer the rest of it. :laughing: But, why do you think Collette doesn’t love Linguini? I don’t follow. I’m not arguing, I just don’t understand.

(psst!! Is Woody, by any chance, your favorite TS character? :smiley: )

rubs temple at the Ran comments Easy people…

I wasn’t talking about you, if that makes any difference, because you don’t argue with me
Or attack me for not loving Randall. I was talking about someone who has constantly given me issues since I joined…

Wasn’t particularly your comment alone IVG. At least your starting to get an understanding of things…
And yes I’m…aware of who your talking about. I regret their…erm…some-what aggressive methods…sometimes, sure, facts have to be presented in such a manner, but not all the time and not in droves…

I think the fact that they took one complaint that had nothing to do with them, and made a thread out of it, shows how mature they really are. If that person knows everything, why do they act like a child :question:

Making a post saying “they” in an attempt to avoid saying their name is very difficult. :laughing:

The methods may be mature themselves but handled in a childish manner in an effort to please…
shakes head I’m sorry I can’t speak too much on the matter…that person has done allot and been a contributor ever since…I disagree with their methods…but I can’t talk behind somebody’s back…
rubs temple Just dislike having those that don’t bash overly on Randall’s side being labeled in the same set.

Sorry. I’m just very upset. :neutral_face: One problem I have is, when I get mad at a member, I always talk about it on all the forums. Not using names, just expressing my anger. I’ll try to stop bothering people with my problems. :stuck_out_tongue:

It’s a way to vent anger. People need to do that or they pile it up inside. rubs temple Which is why I doubt Randall had a punching bag to vent anger he had…blinks Oh forgive me just a comparison this is a totally different topic.

And one again, it wasn’t really you…don’t blame yourself, no need to say sorry.
