Gin wrote:I think Jeremy Parish of Gamespite (or someone on Gamespite anyway) best summarized why Pixar is ahead of every other CG studio in terms of the quality of their movies. To paraphrase:
1) The movies' humour is self-contained instead of resorting to Family Guy levels of leeching off of the last fourty years of pop culture.
2) The humour and storytelling actually respects its audience instead of making fart jokes to distract the kids and sexual innuendo to pander to the adults.
3) Celebrity voice actors play character instead of playing cartoon versions of themselves.


Pixar movies basicly care more about every aspect of there films, they have some of the best people in every field, fantastic charecter designers, writers, animators, set designers, directors etc.

It can pretty easily be summed up in looking at the time between shreks and the time between new pixar movies. They spend so much more time on every aspect.

Better voice actors too, which makes a huge difference.

And even when they do use celebrities (Dave Foley, Billy Crystal, etc) they are often far better than popular names just tacked onto the movie to appeal to stupid audiences. (Avril Lavigne..)

I didn't mean it that way, its just the corruption of the name is what gets me.

Did anyone see Monsters Inc? Everytime I talk about no one knows what the hell I'm talking about. They usually go "Yeah, Toy Story and Finding Nemo were great, but Cars left something to be desired" and I'm all "I like Monsters Inc too" and they're all "what".

Monsters Inc was a great movie but for some reason I didn't really like it. I not sure why. I'm not denying that it was good, just not my cup of tea I suppose.

I saw it several times. we had it, but my sister took it when she left. Something about it being "hers" cause she "bought" it or something.
Holy cow, it's Mix! I thought she was dead or something.

I'm actually surprised that some people hadn't seen it, or at least recognize the name, what kind of people are you talking to?

It's simple as that, it's simple as that, it's simple as that for your stupid ass.
