I am a newcomer, but I really want you to watch all of these tbh.
Land before time has unbelievably stupid humor It's amazing.
I just wanted to say, watching 2 episodes of Peaky Blinders then forgoing the rest of the show was kinda crazy. I hope you come back to that one, its pretty good
She watched the first season, and the second season lost in polls when it was included.
How do we get Ninja scroll onto a poll?
We just find enough people who’ve never seen REAL anime in their lives, and just had third-generation recommendations handed down from the early 90’s, when it was the only anime tape at most Blockbusters. 🤭🙄
I remember watching the Land Before Time as a kid and I loved it. I did vote for Coco, because honestly I love the music, I know a lot of people don't like Mariachi music but I grew up with it and btw have you ever heard Vincente Fernández really belt out "¡VOLVER!"? Snoop loved him lol
Can we just watch all of these please!! 😁
Just for the heck of it, have we yet had a reaction to Ralph Bakshi’s first 1978 stab at animating “The Lord of the Rings”? Yes, we have a better one now, but it’s like going back and watching the ‘84 Dune. (I’m pretty sure we haven’t gotten a reaction to Bakshi’s first transition from sleazebag to fantasy fanboy in 1976’s “Wizards”.)
looks like we going back in time 90's kids XD
So we all crying, with these choices
I remember "The Land Before Time" being good, but sad. I've not watched it since I was a kid, so I wouldn't mind revisiting it. It seems like Natalie is going to keep putting "Cars 2 & 3" on these polls until it finally wins, despite our warnings about how terrible and pointless those movies were. "Toy Story 4" falls into the "unnecessary sequel" category, but it's infinitely superior to the Cars sequels. Admittedly, I paid to see it in the theatre, but I haven't rewatched it. It's entertaining enough but doesn't come close to the heights of the previous Toy Story films. "Coco" is fine, but it suffers from being another MODERN CG-animated movie that fixates on "generational trauma," implying that everyone at Pixar has crippling Daddy/Mommy Issues. I don't get it. It started with "Brave" in 2012 (or arguably "Toy Story 3" in 2010), wherein the villains aren't true villains; instead, they're MISUNDERSTOOD. And if there is an antagonist, they're relegated to a secondary role, like Prince-what's-his-name in "Frozen." Admittedly, I play the Disney's Villainous board game, which is why I've noticed that there are very few true villains in Disney/Pixar movies from the past 20 years. But I believe it's essential to have a personification of evil in movies primarily targeted at children, instead of inundating them with messages that their family is the source of their trauma. "Tangled" is fine. I remember it having one of the last Disney princesses, having a true villainess, and being one of the funnier Disney movies. I'd actually rewatch "Tangled" with Natalie's reaction, whereas if Natalie reacts to Cars 2&3, I'll just skip it.
If you’re wondering why Moana and Encanto* didn’t appear to have any perceptible villains, that’s when you know Disney’s new female management has taken over: Like Captain Marvel telling us that evil shapeshifting aliens really only needed a hug, Disney, Pixar and Marvel have been replaced by a new female producer/director ethic that thinks fighting an actual BAD GUY is too toxic and Alpha, and stories should be resolved by letting emotional IQ save the day, and reminding us all what’s truly important…. 🤗🫂 (*- And no, Bruno was not Encanto’s “villain”. Everyone THOUGHT he was, but, like Coco and Turning Red, it was just a misunderstanding caused by Grandma being too iron-fisted and traditional…. 🙄)
We actually have a contest here! Where are my Nausicaä allies? Waiting for that to pop up again. Going to fight that fight until the end
Haha I promise I haven't forgotten about anime!
justice for coco!!
Surprised Cars hasn't got the hype the third one is great
Still waiting on Lego Movie to be in a poll lol
Lego Movie is on the level of Barbie in which I totally thought it’d be an hour and a half long commercial but my expectations were pleasantly surprised
The ones on this list you've never seen, are totally worth continuing to never see.
No Lilo and Stitch??? Was sure it would be on a poll choice around now.
Kinda waiting to check out the live action one since I did see the animated version as a child
You need to revisit Little Foot and the whole gang!!
I probably sound like a broken record but Predator:Killer of Killers is an animated movie, soooo ya know maybe for the next poll?
Exactly, how about some non-disney/pixar films? like Watership Down or Fantastic Mr. Fox? I just watched FLOW over the weekend and thought it was great, how about that one?
I hope one day soon; you'll watch a great underrated sci-fi series: FarScape.
Farscape is fine but there's better sci-fi series to watch, and at 88 episodes would take a huge amount of time to work through even assuming each of the four seasons would not need to win a separate poll.
I’ve been waiting for you to watch the car sequels since you watched the first one 😭
There’s a reason Bob Iger recently announced a Toy Story 5: One, was as a symbolic gesture to show that Pixar was going to return to the disciplined storytelling of its earlier style, after the disasters of Lightyear and Turning Red… And the other was as a public APOLOGY for Toy Story 4, and to continue 3’s canon as if that mistake of judgment had never happened. (Basically, the same reason we got Cars 3.)
Toy story 5 was announced in Feb 2023 and it continues from 4. Your statement is all nonsense.
Coco and Tangled are both good but you’ve seen them. Onward is great if you want to stick with Pixar. Land Before Time is a landmark in animation history but it’s also a movie for six year olds.
Toy Story 1, 2, 3 and 4.......one of these is not like the others. And not in a good way.
The story was finished after 3, it was perfect.
Wolfwalkers on AppleTV+ is amazing - wonderful story and gorgeous animation. Something to consider for next time!!
Coco is the obvious pick here even as a rewatch - Blows everything else on the list completely out of the water
I agree it’s probably the best here tho I think Toy Story 4 is close. Unfortunately many people will just not vote for a movie if Nat isn’t watching for the first time.
Happy Wednesday Nat. Going to vote for The Land Before Time 🦕🦖 An animated movie + dinosaurs + an epic James Horner score! What's not to love 😄 Have an awesome day Nat 💛
Can we get an onscreen ScreamCount for Land Before Time?
Toy Story 4 incredibly underrated, need that one to win.
From this list I would pick The Land Before Time. But it is time to add Your Name to the next animated list, or A Silent Voice. Both are mandatory watches to be honest
I would agree with this. These animated movie polls always feature very mainstream family movies. Would love to see more variety.
It has to be Land Before Time. It’s the nostalgia we all need right now
I like the Toy Stories. But #4 is definitely the weakest one, and seemed like a straight to video movie. The Land Before Time though is adorable!
3 is the weakest for me by far, 4 was a return to form.
hi nat, Lilo & Stitch animated vs L&S Movie has to be here eventually
I voted for Coco this time
“I smelll….I smelllll…..Ducky!!”
Many things do not fly. Rooooocks. Treeeees. Spiiike.
