I think this is a great idea, this whole time lapse thing in Toy Story 3. I'm stoked.

^I just watched 'The Incredibles' again today. It's brilliant, and there's plenty of stuff in it for an older audience (including an homage to 'Watchmen').

You just convinced me to see that movie.

The Incredibles is awesome, but I kinda got sick of it after a time when people went "okay i'm bored let's watch a movie, let me thi- THE INCREDIBLES TOTALLY"

Seriously, how have you guys not seen it? This trend must have been a midwestern thing...
and that's the waaaaaaaaaay the news goes

Seen it twice.

If I've seen a movie twice, that means I love it.

Few movies that I love have had me view them more than twice (this is just usually because of my terrible attention span...the two time thing).

The Incredibles was... probably my favorite Pixar movie. If not, my second favorite.

It just had a great storyline, great characters, and the best Pixar villain ever.

Up, Wall-E, and the Incredibles are way, way up there for my favorite Pixar movie, but I really do love them all--though I need to see A Bug's Life again.

Also, people don't give Ratatouille a fair shake, either. That movie owned.

- You stupid dog!
I don't think the Recall idea would be appropriate given past events in real life toy recalls and being close to the lead poisoning in children's toys. Also, if the mother takes it away from Andy, how would Andy get it back and have a happy family again? It's probably a good idea in the short-term, but figuring out a solution would be way too complicated (if not impossible).

I've seen every Pixar movie ever (well, besides Up. I really really need to see Up) and I love them all. Toy Story, Wall-E, and The Incredibles are my favorites.

Cars wasn't their best work though. It was good, but not as good as the others.

Last CGI movie I enjoyed, which wasn't even by Pixar IRCC, was Kung Fu Panda. It was actually pretty good.

Kung Fu Panda was only last year, so it's not like it's far off. It was really good, but Wall-E was a lot better.

I didn't care for it. It wasn't bad, and had its moments, but I wouldn't buy it.

Cars was meh. Ratatouille made me fzcking hungry.

And as a general rule, Dreamworks CG-animated films suck. There are a few examples of good films (the original Shrek, Kung-Fu Panda from what I've heard), but the majority of them are crap. Pixar movies have always been deep, meaningful and story-drivin. Dreamworks films are usually shallow or clunky, or both. They just don't tend to leave an impression at all.

^ Since when is Cars deep or meaningful? I realize you called them out on Cars yourself in your opinion, and I don't mean to bash anyone's favorite movie, but I can't relate to talking cars.

Here's the Pixar movies I never liked much:

Bug's Life, Finding Nemo (couldn't finish it, was too crappy), Wall-E.

The others like Toy Story were fine as a child, but I couldn't bare to watch them today.

I looked at a list of Pixar movies to refresh my memory and the list is surprisingly sparse. I thought about a billion came out but those were probably from other companies like Dreamworks.

you didn't like Finding Nemo? You'd have to be the first person I've ever talked to that doesn't.

breaking news: IRHP isn't a human

And a Pixar movie has come out every 1-2 years, so I'd say that's pretty consistent. Dreamworks is about the same way.
