In an attempt to set things right, Merida seeks out an eccentric old Wise Woman (Walters) and is granted an ill-fated wish.

Pixar has yet to make a unsuccessful movie. Amazing company.
I love Pixar
Ahhghn Fuck fucked up when i made the thread and accidentally copy pasted a template i made twice
EDIT:
there we go i fixed it.
Pixar is awesome.
My favorite animating company, to me they're whats left of good old Disney.
Fuck yes.
[QUOTE=Akasolidus;20405314]My favorite animating company, to me they're whats left of good old Disney.[/QUOTE]
This.
I find that to be 100% true. All the rest is new age fuck sauce.
HOLY SHIT CARS 2?! FUCK YES!!!
I also love Pixar, WALL-E was one of my favorite movies ever.
A Bugs Life, the first Pixar movie I watched. I still remember, me and my dad watched it five times when it was released in cinemas.
Ratatouille and Up are my favorites.
Up because it's beautiful.
Ratatouille because I like food.
Ratatouille was amazing to me in the way that they made cartoony, 3D, computer-generated food look [i]tasty[/i]. Finding Nemo is my favourite film thus far, and Up was an amazing tear-jerker.
never liked them much except for Toy Story and UP. the others were, as odd as this may sound, too childish.
Pixar owns Dreamworks
[QUOTE=Keychain;20405368]Holy crap, there's a Cars 2 in the works?[/QUOTE]
But no Wall-E 2 :(
[QUOTE=EFG;20407764]But no Wall-E 2 :([/QUOTE]
Why should there be?
That newt movie sounds like pinky and the brain...
Pixar makes amazing movies, except cars
cars sucked
Anything made by George Lucas is a success. Pixar is no different.
[QUOTE=Akasolidus;20405314]My favorite animating company, to me they're whats left of good old Disney.[/QUOTE]
Well, they're more like a good animating company that Disney grafted onto themselves.
i love all pixar movies. but Ratatouille was my least favorite

Explain to me how George Lucas is shit. He's the only reason cinema isn't utter shit today.
Its been claimed by many scientists that Star Wars was their inspiration as a child.
George Lucas is also the only reason Pixar even exists.
[QUOTE=EFG;20407764]But no Wall-E 2 :([/QUOTE]
That's the last thing Pixar needs to make. If anything, make a new Bugs Life after Toy Story 3.
[QUOTE=Keychain;20408922]That's the last thing Pixar needs to make. If anything, make a new Bugs Life after Toy Story 3.[/QUOTE]
i agree. what would wall-e 2 be about the people get off there lazy asses and clean up earth and whole bunch of other stuff.
I haven't really watched a Pixar movie since bug's life. Apparently people still like them, that's good to hear.
Cars and Ratatouille never really appealed to me..besides that, Pixar is amazing. I love them.
newt looks interesting I guess :P
