Monster's Inc. is my favorite Pixar movie, am I gonna like Wall-E?
 

Ok I pre-ordered Wall-E ( should get it today.) and I know I will like it but
I am hoping that I love it.

My favorite Pixar films are;

#1 Monster's Inc
#2 Finding Nemo
#3 Tied between the Incredibles and Ratatouille.

Really? No Toy Story?

Id put the Toy Storys and the rest of Pixar's films all
at #3.


#1 Monster's Inc
#2 Finding Nemo
#3 Tied between the rest of Pixar's films.


They are all good but really the only one that sticks out
for me is Monster's Inc. and Nemo.

The numbers are interesting, gee Wall-Es budget was 180 million
and it only took in $480 million

Nemo was the money maker.

Could probably help you form an opinion better.....

I would say that you will really enjoy it . For some reason I found Monsters Inc. to be the one I like the least...

Unless you really dislike some of Pixar's movies, I think you'll enjoy it.

I can't put my finger on why, but I feel the same way.

I don't think you will... I liked Monsters, Inc. but Wall-E was a little disappointing. Visually its great, but Wall-E lacked the great writing and humor that made Monsters, Inc. and Finding Nemo so great.

Count me as a third. Everyone here is always praising it and while it's good, I just don't 'feel' it. I enjoy both A Bug's Life and Cars more, which are usually at the bottom of people's lists.

Wall-E was disappointing to me but it is still visually arresting. It also has a pretty awesome score. Monsters Inc. is definitely one of their best though so I wouldn't go in expecting it to be on that level.

Visually great. But the humor was insultingly juvenile and simplistic, the plot was weak, and the heavy-handed message embarrassing.

I've loved all the other Pixar films I've seen, all get 7+/10, but Wall-E gets a 3/10.

Hmm interesting responses , thanks guys.

I did not get Wall-E yet , when I get it and see it I will post
my results.

BTW , If there are any Pixar films I did not care for
Cars would be the one, and I am a A.S.E certifed
master mechanic , oh I am 38 yo too.

I'll probably get it today or tomorrow at the latest.

RATATOUILLE: A
WALL-E: A
INCREDIBLES: A
FINDING NEMO: B-
MONSTERS INC: C+


I've never seen Cars, Toy Stories, or A Bug's Life..

The Incredibles: A+
Ratatouille: A
Wall-E: A
Finding Nemo: A-
Toy Story 1/2: A-/B+
Monster's Inc.: B
A Bug's Life: C+
Cars: C

I like (mostly love) every Pixar film except Wall-E.

Don't listen to movielib - he doesn't like the movie only because he hates the environment and would rather the earth be burned asunder - so any movie with the opposite message to his stance automatically sucks.


I agree with the following:

Wall-E is actually a lot like Monster's Inc in terms of basic plot points.

I see you have "Finding Nemo" as your #2 favorite...so if it's any consolation, "Wall-E" was helmed by the same director, Andrew Stanton. I personally enjoyed it very much, though the format of this story is decidedly different than most.

Thank you for your input Randy. I look forward to seeing Wall-E for the first time.

Yes, I want to do nothing but pillage and destroy. :lol:

I don't like Wall_E mainly for the same reason I don't like being hit on the head with a hammer. I can get the message without it.

While I don't think they're "good" movies I actually enjoyed The Day After Tomorrow and The Happening more than Wall-E. They gave me some entertainment.

Why do you hate our planet so much, movielib?

I thought it was a bit much at the end when Wall-E turns to the audience and says "You know, we've had a lot of fun tonight, but I'd like to take a moment of your time and talk a bit about the very real issue of global warming." Even worse was the powerpoint presentation.

No PIXAR film has outgrossed (or come close to) Nemo.

Also Bear in mind, WALL-E has **NOT** be released in Japan yet, as well as a few other territories. When all is said and done, it will probably clear $600 million total.

Which would make it in the Top 3 or 4 alltime of Pixar films box office (non-adjusted).

Are you Scott DePace?
