I’ve heard Wall-E and Up were great movies. But I’ve only seen bits and pieces in passing when my kids were watching it.
WALL-E is well in the debate of the greatest animated film ever made (if not the best then certainly in the Top 10), so yes. It is in my opinion Pixar’s Magnum Opus and was actually the second planned film from Pixar but Disney refused to green light it thinking a largely silent robot love story would bomb (and given the early struggles of Toy Story I don’t fully blame Disney at least initially telling them no). When Pixar split from Disney for a few years, a condition for them returning was they would be allowed to make WALL-E.
Save for the pizza plant joke, WALL-E is so well made that you could watch it in a foreign language and understand everything you’re being told just by the visuals and characters. I believe one poster here watched 40 minutes of it and didn’t realize until you meet the humans that it was actually the Spanish dub. That’s how good it is.

I saw Shawshank probably 20 times without seeing any of the Tommy scenes in the middle of the movie which were pretty critical to the plot. I finally sat down and watched the movie start to finish about 10 years ago and my mind was blown.

I’ve never seen all of the Godfather in one sitting.
I am pretty sure i’ve seen all of it, and i see big chunks of it enough that I always feel like I just watched it.

I don't understand how you wouldn't just sit down and watch the full movie 1 time after seeing a couple pieces of pulp fiction
mine is Scarface/The Godfather but i've barely seen any of those movie.

I watched it on Telemundo and had no idea until the people showed up.

I don't think I've ever sat down and watched all of Dumb and Dumber but I've seen the whole movie since I leave the tv on it every time I see it on.

Should I take the time to actually watch them?
WALL-E is excellent. Top tier Pixar.
Up is just good IMO (by Pixar standards I mean…it’s really good compared to most other movies). For me, Up is one that starts and ends pretty strongly, but the middle is just meh. Lots of people love it but it lacks a good bit for me. However, I’d still recommend you watch it as well though, because it is definitely a good movie.
But start with WALL-E though. It’s fricking fantastic.
