You think Pixar fanboys are bad? You think, Trekkies and fanboys are bad? Well, how about those hateboys? The trolls. They’re scums of the net, like Ken and Mr. Minez over there.

Up was genius. It dared to do something no filmmakers dared to do – put an old man as the main character in a children’s movie, causing several retards to dare call it ‘boring’ and ‘dull,’ being unable to see the subliminal message that is an aging man yearning to fulfill the promise to his beloved wife he never had the opportunity to do so. Suck it, Dreamworks.

Oh don’t get my started on Pixar.

I’ve hated this overrated, self-righteous studio since the rather mediocre Wall-e stole the academy award for best animated feature from the well-deserving movie Bolt.

I didn’t care for Up overall. While some parts were amazing, I actually would say it would be much better as a short film in some respects. I utterly despised the flying dogs in aeroplanes and the humour wasn’t that great as well as the villain falling flat.

Carl however was a great character, but simply everything else to push the plot around and stretch it out wasn’t that great- Dug was funny at first but eventually grew annoying as did Russell.

Oh and Jess, even though it’s been a few months ad-honinem attacks are terrible and reflect badly on the person making them all the time. Don’t do it. They are entitled to their opinion and that doesn’t make them stupid. And really do you think Pixar cares or needs your “defence”? I’m sure they’re wiping their tears on 50 dollar bills right about now that someone didn’t like some of their movies -rolls eyes-

I hated UP. I hate all animated films that aren’t funny. UP was boring and didn’t let you know what you were getting into until you saw it. It was depressing, too far, and might as well have been live action because it’s sad when animation gets praised just for being serious and dramatic. Pixar always has movies that go too far and they stink. Pixar tricks the kids into making their parents see it by the silly trailers but end up having some dramatic and unnecessary crap. That’s why Cloudy with a chance of Meatballs is probably if not the best, one of the best animated movies of all time. It keep everyone interested, parents and kids alike. Pixar just makes dramatic movies because they know that drama always gets oscars. It’s a sad but true thing. Comedy doesn’t get the praise it deserves although laughter is a medicine. It’s sad when we take the laughter out of cartoons.

Ken, you’re a fucking retarded cunt. Those flaws you mentioned aren’t even in the Pixar movies that you mentioned.

Finding Nemo – a stunningly beautiful materpiece about the love between father and son. (Phenomenal movie.)

Cars – a hilariously funny, exciting, wonderfully animated, and heartwarming film about finding your roots. (Great movie.)

The Incredibles – a fun, action-packed comedy about the importance of family. (Amazing movie.)

Ratatouille – a hilarious, fun, and beautifully animated film about following your dreams. (Really great movie.)

WALL-E – easily, the best CG film of all time; funny, touching, visually amazing, original, etc. (Indescribably great movie.)

Up – a great story, great humor, great animation, great characters, and a great message. (Phenomenal movie.)

So Up is hard to follow, you say? The jokes in Cars are hard to understand unless you’re interested in cars, huh? Ken, buddy, you’re just a brainless, retarded dumbass. THAT’S why Pixar’s too hard for you to follow. Anyone who says that any of Pixar’s are bad or that Pixar is overrated is a brainless retard and is too stupid to grasp the concept of a great movie. Pixar is not overrated; they never have been, and they never will be. Dreamworks has always been overrated and they always will be. Ken is an idiot with horrible taste and he always will be Period. Case closed. End of discussion.

PIXAR IS SOOOOOO NOT OVERRATED!!!
Up is a phenomenal movie – the best movie of 2009 without a doubt. It’s funny, clever, heartwarming, charming, and exciting; great directing, lovable characters, and phenomenal animation. I will admit that I like WALL-E better (and WALL-E is my favorite movie of all time), but I still love Up. Pixar has never made a bad movie. Anyone who says that any of Pixar’s movies or shorts are bad or overrated or that Pixar as a company is overrated is COMPLETELY wrong. All of Pixar’s movies are hilariously funny, heartwarming, phenomenally animated, clever masterpieces and they always will be. Pixar as a studio isn’t overrated and it never will be; none of their spectacular movies or short films are overrated and they never will be. The real overrated animation studio is Dreamworks. They are SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO overrated that it’s not even funny, and the only great movies they’ve ever made were the first Shrek movie and Kung Fu Panda; Over the Hedge, Monsters Vs. Aliens, Shrek 2 and 3, and the Madagascar movies are pretty decent, but not great; Shark Tale and Bee Movie sucked; and I thought Antz was just completely stupid. The truth is, while all of Pixar’s movies so far are unbelievably great, most of the Dreamworks movies aren’t that great. Also, Dreamworks is the studio that has to turn every single movie into a huge franchise – even if the movie wasn’t good!!! And somehow, Dreamworks movies win awards that the Pixar movies deserve! Hmm… fart jokes and unfunny pop culture references (Dreamworks) are better than beautiful, brilliant, touching, stories (Pixar)? Yeah, that makes perfect sense! *cough*NOT!*cough*

And to those very few people who thought that Up sucked, maybe you should try watching the movie when you’re a little older. Maybe then you’ll understand it then.

^ Wow, d keir, you’re a dumbass. Up is a phenomenal movie; not ONE moment in it is boring, tedious, or stupid. And what the fuck are you talking about?! Poorly directed?! Terrible animation?! Terrible characterization?! It was directed perfectly! The animation is beyond amazing! The characters are great! Shut the fuck up and get the fuck out of the country you retarded cunt!

Up was a complete and utter disappointment, boring, stupid annoying talking dogs, poorly directed.Tedious beyond words, animation and characterisation were terrible. Most definitely Pixar’s weakest effort to date after Wall-E. This is not the Pixar of old, at this rate i would want Pixar to quit altogether, rather than embarass themselves further. The list of what i think are the Pixar movies of best to worst are 1. Toy Story 2. Toy Story 2. 3. The Incredibles 4. Monsters Inc 5. Ratatouille 6. Cars 7. A Bug’s Life 8. Finding Nemo 9. Wall-E 10. Up

I dont know how â€œUPâ€ unbelieveably besotted every critic. I have enjoyed all the Pixar films, yet I felt â€œUPâ€ was a poorly plotted and unsatisfying film. It had no second act (and I mean, NO second act: Skip the balloon trip across the world and jump cut to the finale), and the third act piled on action film cliches and wildly unimaginative obstacles (packs of zombied dogs -Weeee! ) on what began as a wonderful heartwarmer. Yes, the beginning was wonderful, but the second half felt completely disconnected. Garbage thrown on roses. I, frankly donâ€™t know why every critic missed that fact the film descended into Hollywood junk. I absolutely am baffled by this and bouyed to see that others dare to recognize that Pixar isnâ€™t infalible when it comes to making films. Their early work had much better writing, but now everyone employed there seems to believe their an auteur (based on the fact that for awhile they were the ONLY animation act in town) and capable only of genius. Frankly, I hardly find their films geniunely funny any more. “Toy Story” made me laugh, but since then … well…. And â€œUP,â€ for me, was the weakest effort theyâ€™ve put out. A beautiful short that descended into an bad action film.

OVERRATED
Up was actually better than I expected, no that that says much. Over the last decade Pixars has become extremely overrated. The only movies I can find enjoyable are The Incredibles and Ratatulie, and even they lack what Dreamworks and Disney can do. I was officially turned off by them at last years awards when WALL-E swept EVERY SINGLE award show when it should have gone to Kung Fu Panda or at the very least Bolt and Horton hears a who. And the secons they don’t win the Annie award they spread rumors that Dreamworks bribed the award show (if that’s even possible) When they weren’t nominated for best picture they claimed they were being “snubbed”. And what makes there film any different from any other film not nominated? Pixars can’t make relateable stories. They lack feeling thats easy to get intuned to. Up was the first one in a while that actually had feeling but it was TOO MUCH. Even after all the hype they’ve already won sveral golden globes. I hoping the Annies hold true, but I have no hope for the Oscars

Up is amazing, you should have no heart and taste if you didn’t liked. Pixar is amazing, non of his movies are perfect but they are original. And Carl’s design is a little based on Walter Mattau and Muntz’s design is based on Kirk Douglas.
