re: DISNEY Tournament Master Thread

1 Finding Nemo
16 Cars

Cars is perhaps the only bad movie Pixar has ever made, and Finding Nemo is one of their best. Easy call.


8 Tangled
9 Princess and the Frog

Tough call, but I'm going with the Frog due to a slightly better songbook and a far better ending. The deus ex machina of Tangled really prevents it from entering the pantheon.

5 WALL-E
12 Brave

I really like Brave, but Wall-E is just so good. One of the last movies that made me cry in the theater.

4 The Incredibles
13 A Bug's Life

I like the Incredibles, but I feel its overrated. Bug's Life is merely okay. This is the weakest first round matchup for me.

6 Up
11 Monster's, Inc.

Seriously, screw you for this one. How the hell is Sully and Mike an 11 seed? I love Up, it's one of my all-time favorites, but Monsters, Inc is near perfect. Terrible hose job on the seeding.

3 Toy Story 3
14 Winnie the Pooh (2011)

Slam dunk.


7 Wreck-it-Ralph
10 Big Hero 6

When is Princess Vanillope going to be officially added to the princess line? I've got a little speed racer who is curious to know. The final deployment of the villain's credo is like a Cry Bomb.

2 Frozen
15 Ratatouille

I love Ratatouille and wish it had a better draw, but Frozen is the best Disney movie since the Renaissance ended. Great song book, terrific characters, and a genuinely interesting villain.

So far this bracket's voting seems to be going extremely well. The seeding appears to have reflected opinion mostly well with the higher seeds advancing, while a few underdogs are getting lifted.

Really intriguing to see one of the more overlooked Pixar movies holding its own against the highest grossing animated film ever. Monster's Inc. supporters are also puting in work

Not knocking you for it, but yeah I agree you'll be in the vast minority

Trust me, I know all too well.

I remember when it first came out how everyone talked non-stop about how awesome it was and how it was all that. When I finally got around to watching it I was sorely disappointed. Maybe everyone got my expectation too high before I even watched it. But it never lived up to the hype for me.

But yeah, I know I'm in the vast minority there. That's why I'm not even trying to put up an argument for Cars.

ETA: And trust me, those that were part of the comic book tournament can attest, I ain't scared to to put up an argument.

damn scratch in this bracket

Tangled is seriously so fricking good. Plus rapunzel is hot as shite. Flynn rider and the horse are great characters.

Ratatouille is easily the worst Pixar movie (it beats out Cars 2 IMO).

You shut your whore mouth

huge range of opinion on Ratatouille

Guessing you need to look at the people who watched these shows as kids, and the ones who watched them with their own kids

But The Princess and the Frog is putting up a fight. We aren't going down without a battle.
