In reply to Diego. Too bad it wasn't a motion picture.

Wall-E was the Best motion picture of the year. That´s all.

Wait! It’s not a limited release in the last two months of the year? No chance of getting nominated for Best Picture.

In reply to Beth. 3D is a cash-grab gimmick.

Cars was terribly average, especially for a Pixar film. Pixar is known to push boundaries and excell and Cars did neither. It tried far too hard to copy Dreamwork’s approach by loading pop culture gags with little soul.
Just look at the IMDB and Rotten Tomatoes ratings, it’s generally considered to be Pixar’s worst movie and I have to agree.

In reply to Beejag. the problem with cars is that it had to follow the incredibles, which is the best pixar film.

Im so pissed at the oscars after they snubbed Wall-E like that. It only won one award. ONE FUCKING AWARD!

CARS is my favourite PIXAR movie along with Ratatouille & Monsters Inc.

I don’t get it why people hate CARS…it was simply superb!

I can’t disagree that Pixar always make great films, but have to say that certain of them which other people loved I have never bothered to watch twice (Finding Nemo and A Bug’s Life), while I happily skipped Cars entirely. On the other hand, I place Monsters Inc a lot higher in my list of favourites than most. I decide whether to see a Pixar film based on whether I think the story is interesting or not, and I rate them based on how enjoyable / touching they are. I figure that’s how Lasseter et al would like things, rather than just going gooey over the animation. Dated as it is, Toy Story still shits all over Shrek and friends. Really looking forward to Up.
