Guest Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Not sure how many people will participate here, but its a discussion that needs to be had. Pixar Animation vs Dreamworks - who is better for you? I'm gonna do a comparison which film I prefer. A Bugs Life - Antz Toy Story 2 - The Prince of Egypt Monsters Inc - Shrek Finding Nemo - Shrek 2 The Incredibles - Shark Tale Cars - Madagascar Ratatouille - Over the Hedge Wall-e - Shrek the third Up - Kung Fu Panda x 2 Toy Story 3 - How to Train your Dragon Cars 2 - Kung Fu Panda 2 Monsters University - Madagascar 3 Dreamworks 7 Pixar 6 Would have been a tie for me but Kung Fu Panda gets 2 points for being my favourite animated movie of all time.

Guest Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Also I have nothing against Shrek. I just think that the first one came out at the wrong time for them while the sequels were all inferior to the first and the films around that time were better.

ASF 258 Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Pixar. Hands down. From them, you have: - Toy Story trilogy - Monsters, Inc. - Finding Nemo - The Incredibles - Ratatouille - Wall-E - Up - Inside Out Dreamworks - Shrek and Shrek 2 - Kung Fu Panda trilogy - How to Train Your Dragon 1 and 2 - 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Agreed that only those 3 franchises from dreamworks stand out. I did like Antz a lot more than A Bugs Life though. The only 2 Pixar movies I didn't like were Cars and Wall-e. Monsters Inc and Monsters University are still my 2 favourite Pixar films.

Spike 4,061 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Pixar has the greatest children's movie I've ever seen. Cars 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan 15,592 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Wall-e was brilliant. I will not have a bad word said about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry 1,375 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 (edited) Ratatoullie is the best pixar film imo. Absolutely gorgeous film. Edited December 22, 2017 by Harry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 I think the "best" is Toy Story 3. When you consider the target audience was the 90's generation, it was brilliantly made. My favourite is still Monsters Inc though and Monsters University while not necessary was a lot of fun. I saw it a few days ago and I want to watch it again. When it comes to Pixar anyhow.

nudge 12,929 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Haven't watched most of these. Only The Prince of Egypt, Shrek, Monsters Inc and Madagascar. Still prefer Walt Disney over anything else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicero 4,898 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Pixar for me. Dreamworks may have my most favorite animated film of all time, The Prince of Egypt, but with them, usually it takes them maybe every other movie to produce a great one. With Pixar, they are consistent. Always a gem year after year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IgnisExcubitor 676 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Also Pixar's shorts are fairly entertaining. My top five animated movies 1) Inside out 2) Kung Fu Panda series 3) Titan AE (neither Pixar or DW) 4) Up (Carl and Elie's love story showed in silence, still chokes me up) 5) Ratatouille Honorable mentions are How to Train your dragon, Wall-e and Monster's Inc (Monster's University was rubbish).

nudge 12,929 Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Heavy Metal is the best animated movie ever. My other favourites: Road to El Dorado (DW) Atlantis: The Lost Empire (Disney) Treasure Planet (Disney) Aladdin (Disney) Monsters Inc. (Pixar) Ice Age (Blue Sky) Lilo & Stitch (Disney) Mulan (Disney) Emperor's New Groove (Disney) Lion King (Disney) So yeah, I think I prefer Disney's older ones.

We had random issues smuggled in from the West every once in a while, both English and French versions, as it was not exactly legal at the time The artwork blew me away completely; I have never seen anything like it before, one of the reasons why I fell in love with sci-fi as a kid... I need to rewatch it some day! The soundtrack 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because I can still remember the hype once it was released, can't believe there are still people in similar age bracket that haven't seen it!

Why are you comparing finding Nemo to Shrek and then a sharks tale to the Incredibles? surely Sharks tale v Nemo (which Nemo wins) is the more logical comparison? For me it's Pixar, Dreamworks are capable of a great film but Pixar are just so much more consistent. Inside out, Brave, Up, over the hedge, Nemo, Toy Story, Kung Fu Panda would all be my favourites in recent years, my daughter loves Trolls and it's ok but Wall-E is in a league of it's own as the best so far from any animation company. Illumination films have gone from Cack to semi acceptable, sing & secret life of pets are good, despicable me is shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
