The Seven Best Disney Pixar Films

7: Finding Nemo (2003)
Starring: Alexander Gould, Albert Brooks and Ellen DeGeneres
In Seven (or more) Words: Fish have bigger problems than memory loss. Ellen DeGeneres is possibly the greatest Pixar character as Dory, a regal blue tang stilted by amnesia. Though, the real tea leaf is the ocean, stealing the film with its depth of quality in animation. A sequel, Finding Dory, is due out in 2016.

6: Toy Story 2 (1999)
Starring: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and Joan Cusack
In Seven (or more) Words: The Godfather part 2 of animation, some say it surpasses the excellence of its predecessor. I don't.

5: Wall.E (2008)
Starring: Ben Burtt, Elissa Knight and Jeff Garlin
In Seven (or more) Words: Pixar can even create subjectivity through the metal heart of robots. Andrew Stanton, who directed Finding Nemo, manages to facilitate entertainment in an almost voiceless 98 minutes. A CGI version of The Artist.. with a completely different plot.

4: Toy Story (1995)
Starring: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and Don Rickles.
In Seven (or more) Words: A fucking big landmark in the history of cinema. The beginning of Pixar's A grade pictures; toys really do have feelings. Fun fact: Joss Wheden helped write the script.

3: Up (2009)
Starring: Ed Asner, Jordan Nagai and Christopher Plummer
In Seven (or more) Words: The most brilliant, heartfelt opening five minutes animation has ever given us; just as affecting as Amour in terms of growing old and losing one's life partner. The rest of the film is ingenious Pixar, with a floating house, a boy scout and a talking dog. However, the perfection of the opening was difficult to endure. If the film had done so, we might be talking this up as one of the greatest films ever made. For real.

2: Toy Story 3 (2010)
Starring: Tom Hanks, Tim Allen and Joan Cusack
In Seven (or more) Words: A sublime third outing, enhancing Toy Story's credentials as one of the greatest ever trilogies. The 'holding of the hands' in the denouement produces a childhood nostalgia; toys can make you cry.

1: The Incredibles (2004)
Starring: Craig T. Nelson, Holly Hunter and Jason Lee
In Seven (or more) Words: One of the best films in the cannon of the 'Superhero Genre', Pixar is always great (Cars 1 and 2 aside). Here, they assembled Brad Bird, John Walker and a stunning voice cast to generate its finest outing to date. The music by Michael Giacchano arguably exceeds the animation, though nothing about this picture is less than dazzling.
