I thought Wall-E was cute and had some very good moments in it. It wasn't boring to me at all.

I like'em all except for bugs life and cars.
Cars didn't have the extra punch Pixar often shows and Bugs life I haven't seen it sine it came on vhs, but what I remember was it didn't really entertain me.

what I love with Pixar movies are their stories, interesting designs and that they always do something new or something show-offy on a 3D technical level

I thought A Bug's Life was cute. My favorite character was Dot. Cars was good, but I hated the moment when Mater's helicopter ride took away from the tender moment between Lightning and Sally.

Torn between Toy Story 2 and Monsters Inc (haven't seen TS3 yet). I went with Monsters. Very tough choice overall, I love them all in some way even though I think the earlier ones (up to Cars) have more rewatch value (minus A Bug's Life, probably my least favorite of the bunch).

I guess I have to go with Toy Story. That movie and I were buddies back in the day.

But in order I'll go with...

Toy Story
Toy Story 3
Toy Story 2
The Incredibles
Monsters Inc
Finding Nemo
Ratatouille
A Bug's Life

The rest, either never saw them or care for them.

Bug's life is usually the last on everyones list. Good to see its appreciated. I just watched it again the other day and I must say I enjoyed it very much. I even caught some jokes that I didnt catch when I was younger.

And Kevin Spacey as Hopper, FTW.

I went with Up. Its a terribly hard choice to make because there isn't one Pixar film I don't love. Wall-E is a timeless piece (up there with Blade Runner) that could be used to teach film making. Toy Story is a timeless classic. Finding Nemo is brilliant, and Monsters Inc (my VERY close #2) is one of the most touching animated films out there. Up however just touched on so many topics I love. It covered love, loss, the way society quietly discards old people when its done with them... just a beautiful little gem.

I've got to disagree with you there. I loved How to Train Your Dragon immensely, but it was incredibly formulaic. Toy Story 3 however went balls-to-the-wall in terms of courage with it's script writing.

I actually didn't think Pixar had the guts to tell that story they way they did, but they touched two generations with that one. I saw multiple teary eyed twenty-somethings in that theater, including myself, at the end with Andy and Woody. It spoke to all of us. We've all been in that situation.

I voted for "the incredibles". I loved the vibe it had like in those old James Bond movies.

All very close, but if I had to pick a top 3.

1. The Incredibles - Perfect balance of action, humor and Samuel L. Jackson.
2. Up - Teared me up in the first 10 minutes.
3. Wall-E - Just love it.

Yeah, I liked Wall-E because it showed that you don't necessarily have to have a lot of dialogue to make a good movie. My favorite part is when Wall-E is looking through the trash and he sees a bra. He picks it up, puts it over his eyes, and says, "Whoa!" That part cracked me up.
