Toy Story 10/10
Up 9.5/10
Finding Nemo 9/10
The Incredibles 9/10
Monsters Inc. 8.5/10
Toy Story 2 8/10
A Bug's Life 7/10
Cars 7/10
Ratatouille n/a

Justification:
-Remembering the newness of the animation and the storyline when it first happened is enough to make Toy Story a bonafide hit. But being able to go back to it for the storyline and fantastic work by the actors/actresses who supplied the voices (not to mention the soundtrack) all these years later as Pixar has evolved seals it as tops on this list.
-The fact that my eyes welled up just reading through the "Up" thread makes it 2nd place for me.
-With Nemo, Incredibles, and Monsters, they're higher because I feel like I got to experience them as both a film and as a cultural entity with a group of friends I truly admired in high school. The movies below them came either before or after high school, when I experienced them differently. I'm sure many of you have similar scenarios where your rank is determined just as much by where you were in regards to family or social life than by the actual movie.

Very, very hard for me. My list is different than most, I think, and by no means should anybody think that I don't like or have problems with any of these movies.

1 - Finding Nemo (yes, I lied)
1A - Up
1B - Wall-E
2 - Ratatouille
3 - Cars (I know I depart from the mainstream here)
4 - The Incredibles
5 - Monsters Inc.
6 - Toy Story 2
7 - Toy Story 1
8 - A Bug's Life

dont we do this every so often? there is a thread or two on this already

[ERCougar]

Finding Nemo - amazing visuals and great theme
Toy Story - innovative and a great idea for a subject (talking classic toys!)
Toy Story 2 - better story but the first one wins for innovation
Bug's Life - some of Pixar's funniest one-liners
Monster's, Inc
Ratatouille
Incredibles
Up
Cars
Wall-E - only because I fell asleep...I'm not sure if that's a function of me, the movie, or my kids' lack of interest in it (so that I haven't tried it again after the first time)

[Jarid in Cedar]

Finding Nemo
Monsters, Inc
Toy Story
Toy Story 2(Pork bellies are falling.....makes me giggle every time)

I like The Incredibles, Finding Nemo and Toy Story the most. All the rest I don't like as much but I still think they are good.

I searched CUF and didn't find anything that matched (could you provide a link if you find otherwise?). However, I freely admit, I do not have the history that many of you have (@CUF, @CougarGuard, @CougarForumBoard)... so this topic may have been discussed there separately. My apologies for the duplication. The thread, if no one finds it interesting, will self-select to the dustbin of CUF.

cheers.

It's in the Up thread

nah, no apologies needed. Just saying that the info you want is already out there. besides, opinions change so the prior polls might indicate different results.
