Also, I do agree that the villain in Up was fairly weak, but the movie is incredible.


Aside from Syndrome and Lotso, Pixar hasn't really made many good villains. The standard Pixar film usually brings up the main antagonist near the very beginning of the story, and then they drop him for about half the movie in order to develop the struggle of our protagonist, which pretty much has nothing to do with the antagonist. Once we meet the villain, the hero then overcomes his failures and is then ready to take out. The villain. Pixar films are typically man vs himself or man vs nature rather than man vs man.

I can agree with that. Though I do think Hopper from AB'sL is a solid villain.

I likely rank A Bug's Life higher than most people in their Pixar rankings.
