I love Monsters Inc. the story line and characters are beautiful! I can watch this movie over and over! me and my baby love watching this movie together !
I love them all, but I think Finding Nemo has to be my all time favorite. It’s a heartwarming adventure story that has its moments of dread (has someone died?) and love, the beautiful relationships that are nurtured and discovered, the humor, the pathos. I can not see a fish tank without looking for a Nemo (clownfish) or a Dory.
Toy Story. It was the first one. Never saw anything like it up to that point.
My favorite was the original Cars movie. My sons and I watched that movie so many times, it’s not even funny.
Monsters Inc. I love monsters and that little girl’s voice and laugh was so sweet.
Toy Story – it was the original Pixar – all new technology – fun trying to figure out whose voice were each of the characters. Took our young kids to see it and they loved it too.
I have to say toy story!! I have all three DVDs and never get tired of watching them.
UP! Dreams do come true but not always the way w
e imagined they would.
The Incredibles and Toy Story
UP. I so love the house!
The first Toy Story… It was one of my kids’ all time favorites!
UP! I watched that movie the first time while pregnant. BAD COMBO – I cried the during the whole thing! But, I loved it…
My almost 6 yr old says a most definite thumbs to UP :-)
Ratatouille….. the location, ambience, music, story. Charming!
It’s really hard to pick a favorite, but for me it’s a tie between Up and A Bug’s Life. As a kid I always loved imagining what all the bugs were thinking, planning and dreaming up. And Up–well, I love love love the whole composition, the antics of Kevin the female bird and the robotic golden retriever who loves everyone relentlessly even though he just met them. Such poignant storylines and characters!!!
wall-e because it’s the most unique and creative film in Pixar’s portfolio.
I LIKED RATATOUILE
Ratatouille is by far one of favorite Pixar movies
UP!

I love the movie “UP” !!!!!
UP! I love the beginning where no one says a word, yet we know and feel how much love they had for each other. Such a great movie!
My Fav is Finding Nemo , The whole family loves it as much today as the day it came out.
My best is Toy Story, it keeps my grandkids (4 yrs. and 5 yrs.) entertained during the whole movie. It’s great.
Toy Story is my favorite Pixar movie. The first time I saw it was in the movies with my dad. Right after the movie, we went to McDonald’s to buy all the Toy Story figurines and I still have them. And now, so many years later, after I have gone to college and am living on my own, my 3 year old niece goes around the house talking to her little sister saying, “Don’t worry, Brookie, you’ve got a friend me.” It’s just amazing how this movie has passed from each generation. I used to work at a video store and people of all ages would rent the Toy Story movies. It is a timeless movie and holds the hearts of my generation and more to come. All three movies encouraged me to not grow up too fast and to stay young forever.
Up! the ending is amazing
My wife loved Monsters. I enjoyed it too. So that is my pick.
We like Cars the best, according to my car-guy hubby! ;) Finding Nemo was our daughter’s fave when she was about 3, and even named her cat “Crush” after the sea turtle!
It’s hard to choose, but I think my instant response is what I’m going with: UP!
The Incredibles, its got great characters, a clever and witty script and excellent voice acting. It successfully satirized superhero movie conventions while also playing them straight. It also managed to poke fun at everything from the government, the school system, suburban life and the legal system, all without cheapening the drama, a perfect balance. A special notice for the character Edna Mode, voiced oddly enough by writer/director Brad Bird himself, who nearly steals the entire film. It’s probably Pixar’s funniest film to date, yet it still has enough emotional depth.
cars cars cars!!!!!!
I truly love the story of Up and how it showed the importance of keeping your vow or promise no matter what situation arises or how much time has passed. Being that it was a kids movie, it really had me emotional because it also showed the value of love and loss. That was why I liked the very beginning of Finding Memo.
none
The movie to jump into my mind is Monsters Inc. I love this movie and, the short film at the end with the new car is hysterical !
