I'm 100% with you on Toy Story 3 (the ending is fantastic, the rest is very good but not as good as 1 or 2) and 2 (best of the trilogy and close to the best Pixar film), but not the rest. I would call Wall-E and Ratatouille masterpieces. They're definitely kids films, but I don't think they're any more focus-grouped…

No, they mean "riding pardner."

Rachida is… kind of a bitch.

I think it's that Cars was generally considered the worst Pixar movie to date, even if it was still mostly entertaining, but then it was the first non Toy Story Pixar movie to get a proper sequel. So it felt like "why make a sequel to your least-liked film?" and then it came out and indeed kind of sucked and it was…

Yeah, and I'm pretty sure (pursuing the Toy Story 3 wiki page) Toy Story 3 was the true reason for the buyout. It wasn't in production yet, but Pixar planned to make it independently, or with help from another studio than Disney. Then the buyout happened and it immediately went into production. So it's kind of on the…

3 of those movies were good, maybe great

I looked at their filmography- these numbers check out.

That would be great. He gave all the toys away so they're not even there anymore. It would just be 2 hours of him arguing with his parents, coming home drunk late at night with burnout friends from high school who never left town, crying alone in his bed in the garage, interviewing for a server position at Pizza…

I don't know, there was a serious, and I think intentional, feeling of finality to all of part 3. Just seems kind of wrong to undo that.

Dan Harmon is an anagram of Rashida Jones!

"and each sequel has been better than the last."

Jeez, we discussed this all yesterday. Disney bought them out in 2006. The last movie they had in production before the buyout was Up. What's gone into production since the Disney buyout: Toy Story 3, Cars 2, Brave, and Monsters University. In short, 2 sequels, a prequel and a movie about a princess. (warning: it's…

"she doesn't really have any writing credits."

"that silent but adorable aura"

"I wasn't aware that I had to agree with every other woman on the block just because I happen to be one"

Wow, that escalated quickly. Brave was a conscious attempt at a Disney "princess movie" with a more modern spirit. So was Frozen. Do you honestly disagree with that? I'm not judging the content one way or the other, just pointing out Disney's influence over what was previously a more independent studio.

Whether Brave was great or terrible is beside the point. Pixar hadn't made a princess movie. Disney, known for a long line of princess movies buys them, then they make a princess movie. Right after 2 sequels, and before another sequel.

Sad but true- Disney bought Pixar in 2006 and you can see a sharp distinction between stuff that was created or in production prior to that deal and the stuff that's originated since. Everything through Up was started pre-Disney contract. Since the contract was signed, their entire filmography has been 3 sequels and a…

The Incredibles 2 makes sense and has been more or less clamored for by fans. Finding Dory- obviously stupid. Toy Story 4 is a terrible idea. The 3rd was a perfect ending. If they need so desperately to continue the franchise, I think they'd be better off doing some kind of spin-off movie. Maybe Mr Potato Head and the…

Nice. This show has been uneven so far, but the cast is great, it's getting better and you can tell it will continue to improve and I wouldn't be at all surprised if by the end of the season it's morphed into the best sitcom on network TV (not much competition for that, I know).
