Yes yes. I HAD THE NAME FIRST!
Also, I really disliked Frozen. It felt like the Crash of Disney Films. Just all manipulated and overproduced with completely uninteresting characters.

Skipped voting for the ones I haven't seen. I really need to catch up on the new disney movies.
You're not the first person to have those four movies as unseen. I'd seriously recommend watching all of them immediately. Like honestly, do it this weekend if you can (BH6 came out yesterday, actually). I'd rank them:
TS3
W-I-R
BH6
WtP
But even Winnie the Pooh is really enjoyable (I loved WtP as a kid though, so if you didn't then it might not be as so for you).
But TS3 and WIR are legit awesome movies, irrelevant of "animated" or ""Disney". They're just great movies period.

I think it's the film that represents classic film storytelling the most, probably next to Sleeping Beauty and Beauty and the Beast. It isn't the best Kid's film, it isn't the best animated film. It's the best film, so there's a distinction. If that makes sense.
It's also an old styled adventure film, which is awesome, because we don't get many of those. It's all pulpy, and it does that extremely well. And it's far more nuanced than your average Pixar film. Most of it's meaning is under the surface and it hits you where you least expect it.
It makes sense. I just don't agree with it.
But thanks for explaining.

TS3 was too much...It was depressing and a forced conclusion to a series..Pooh Bear and friends beats TS3..Not the TS storyline, just TS3

I will fight you. And I'm not even sure how you think the characters are uninteresting. Elsa is the first Disney villain (well, antagonist would be a better word) to have a real motivation other than "I'm evil". In fact, the fact that she really ISN'T evil makes the movie far more tragic. Most Disney villains are capital-V "VILLAINS!" but Elsa is instead a confused girl who is forced to grow up too fast and flounders under the responsibility, eventually rejecting it. It's a far more interesting story.

I love how we're all a bunch of grown arse men (for the most part) in here talking about fighting each other and making cases and arguing over quality and opinion (which is what message boards are for anyway)....and it's all over Disney animated films.
Just seems so hilarious.

FWIW, Ratatouille scored higher than Frozen on metacritic (both critic and user score), IMDB, and rotten tomatoes.
Frozen was decent, and it's music made it a huge phenomenon (especially with kids)... but I think Ratatouille is generally regarded as the better movie.

elsa is the only interesting part of the movie and shes not the main screen time.
her sister and the guy she instantly falls for are terrible. the "twist" feels forced and is immediately dealt with. it seemed like a bunch of forced moments with no real motivation behind a lot of them.

This is a first for us.

See, this would be a really big interesting discussion. I think quite a few Disney villains have more than a "I'm Evil!" appeal (some certainly are that simple...I'm looking at you Jafar). And I found Elsa's freakout, her song, all that just completely bland. Maybe that's just me, there wasn't the depth of struggle, just the idea of "We need her to do this" as writers (manipulated). It wasn't natural but almost a TOO CONSTRUCTED Disney Fairy Tale if that makes sense. (And is she really the antagonist or villain after 40 mins.).
I think there's a good story there, it just wasn't told, but obviously I'm in the minority. I think all the other stuff got in the way of Elsa being a fully fleshed out character...living snowmen, trolls, etc..... that I think that's were the manipulated feeling comes from.

See above. We are in agreement.

Up, Pixar's best film by a long shot
I'd say WALL-E and Toy Story 3 are better.

Big Hero 6 was an excellent film, better than WiR IMO. It's issues are the development of the villain and the "group" feeling almost pointless. But the 2 main characters are great and the I really liked the story.
