9th Place: WALL.E- 9 Votes [30%]
WALL-E (stylized with an interpunct as WALL·E) is a 2008 American computer-animated comedy science fiction film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and directed by Andrew Stanton. The story follows a robot named WALL-E, who is designed to clean up an abandoned, waste-covered Earth far in the future. He falls in love with another robot named EVE, who also has a programmed task, and follows her into outer space on an adventure that changes the destiny of both his kind and humanity. Both robots exhibit an appearance of free will and emotions similar to humans, which develop further as the film progresses. After directing Finding Nemo, Stanton felt Pixar had created believable simulations of underwater physics and was willing to direct a film set largely in space. WALL-E has minimal dialogue in its early sequences; many of the characters do not have voices, but instead communicate with body language and robotic sounds, which were designed by Ben Burtt. It is also Pixar's first animated feature with segments featuring live-action characters. WALL-E was met with critical acclaim, scoring an approval rating of 96% on the review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes. It grossed $521.3 million worldwide, won the 2008 Golden Globe Award for Best Animated Feature Film, the 2009 Hugo Award for Best Dramatic Presentation, Long Form, the final Nebula Award for Best Script, the Saturn Award for Best Animated Film, and the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature as well as being nominated for five other Academy Awards at the 81st Academy Awards. WALL-E ranks first in TIME 's "Best Movies of the Decade". The film is seen as a critique on larger societal issues. It addresses consumerism, corporatism, nostalgia, environmental problems, waste management, the immense impact humans have on the Earth, and risks to human civilization and its home planet Earth. WALL-E grossed $223,808,164 in the USA and Canada and $297,503,696 overseas for a worldwide total of $521,311,860, making it the ninth highest grossing film of 2008. In the US and Canada, it opened in 3,992 theaters on June 27, 2008. During its opening weekend, it topped the box office with $63,087,526 which is the fifth-best opening weekend for a Pixar film and the fourth-best opening among films released in June. The movie earned $94.7 million in its first week and crossed the $200 million mark during its sixth weekend. WALL-E grossed over $10 million in Japan ($44,005,222), UK, Ireland and Malta ($41,215,600), France and the Maghreb region ($27,984,103), Germany ($24,130,400), Mexico ($17,679,805), Spain ($14,973,097), Australia ($14,165,390), Italy ($12,210,993) and Russia and the CIS ($11,694,482 9th Place: WALL.E- 9 votes [30.00%] 10th Place: Ratatouille- 11 votes [39.29%] 11th Place: Monsters University- 11 Votes [39.29%] 12th Place: Brave- 15 Votes [51.72%] 13th Place: Cars- 9 Votes [40.91%] 14th Place: Cars 2- 18 Votes [60%] I am so upset WALL.E is already out WALL.E is Pixar's 2nd best film and in my favourite five films ever, it is so beautiful and amazing A BUG'S LIFE OUT PLEASE |

Um, wow, WALL-E is one of Pixar's best a really great and quite scary in a way considering it's theme, which is admirable for a movie primarily aimed at children.
Went for The Incredibles again. |

Wall-E is terribly boring. I never have the desire to see it again.

Up's time is... (yeah you get it).
After/if that went that would leave a pretty solid top 7, I'd put The Incredibles as the weakest of a great bunch. |

STILL A Bug Life's for me. I like 'Up' but it's definitely my third-least-favorite of what's left (after the former and 'The Incredibles')

Well, you did kick out Ratatouille - I'd call Wall-E's demise revenge for that!
