Best win of the tournament is Wall-E knocking out Sword and the Stone, but alas, now people who only remember the first 5 minute of Up and couldn't even tell you the name of the dog, the villain, the fat kid, or any character but maybe the old man will vote against it.

Good night, Sweet Prince.

Change my view: "Define Dancing" is the single greatest scene in a Pixar movie.

I tend to agree with you there. I remember the name of the dog and the villain, but outside of the intro, its not nearly as memorable as Wall-e to me.

Such a great scene. I'll have to think about this a little bit. That's tuough.

I would have really lost my shite if that mediocrity not only took down my favorite animated film of all time, but also my favorite computer animated film of all time. I can’t think of many outrageous winners from last round in comparison to the one before.

I’ll respectfully disagree.

Up has a good story involving two characters the audience can be sympathetic towards...lost in their own respective lives and finding out that there’s still things worth fighting and living for. They did a great job not forcing the Carl/Russell friendship and letting it naturally develop. The 5 minutes really sets the tone for developing an emotional attachment to Carl.

WALL-E is a very fun film, but it kind of relies on “look how cute and adorable this sad lonely robot is”. I don’t know where emotionally you are supposed to relate to any of the characters. Sure, you root for the cute little robot, but it’s not relatable. I do enjoy the social commentary in general, but it’s a side story to the main story of WALL-E.

Strangely enough, Wall-E and Up are two of the very best Pixar films. Both are far better than Nemo and Toy Story, but alas, talking toys vex everyone.
