Top Ten Biggest Flaws of Certain Pixar Movies

Pixar is my favourite animation studio, they have made so many great movies like Toy Story, Wall-E, Ratatouille and so on, However Pixar movies still have flaws, so let's look at them shall we?
The Top Ten
1 Bad Humour (Toy Story 3)

Toy Story 3 is, in my opinion, the weakest Pixar movie of all time. While it isn't bad, it's definitely not a masterpiece, and the humor is one of the reasons I don't like it.

It was just plain bad and disgusting at parts, like that kid who decides to stuff a bunch of Mr. Potato Head's parts in his nose. It was just plain disgusting.

It has good emotion throughout, but I wouldn't say the humor was bad. It could have been a little better.

2 Boring (Cars)

Many people will agree that Cars is one of Pixar's lesser great movies, and it shows because the first installment is just so boring! Sure, it was kind of good, and it had iconic characters, but gods, is the movie boring.

It just never seems to move forward at times.

What is so boring about a car who learns that friendship is more important than winning all the time and helps ghost towns that are all but forgotten?

3 Sid Phillips is a Terrible Villain (Toy Story)

Toy Story was a masterpiece and easily one of the greatest movies ever made! I love it so much! It's pretty much flawless.

The only thing I wasn't fond of was the villain (or better said, main antagonist) Sid Phillips. He was just an unlikable jerk who tortured toys for fun and had no empathy at all.

4 Feels More Like a Standard Disney Movie Than a Pixar Movie (Brave)

This is the exact reason why I didn't enjoy this one. Disney Princess vibes in a Pixar film don't work for me, and it defeats the whole purpose of what this studio is known for compared to standard Disney.

This is probably my least favorite Pixar movie of all time. Sorry, Cars 2, but for someone who once loved it so much, I can't turn my back like that.

Now, this might be a bit of a nitpicky reason, but I feel like this is the biggest reason I didn't enjoy Brave too much. It feels more like a Disney princess movie than something made by Pixar.

5 First Half is Very Slow (The Incredibles)

Many people say The Incredibles is the best Pixar movie, but I have the opposite opinion. One reason is how slow it feels. I didn't find it too exciting, and the villain was butthurt.

The first half was just so slow, and it felt like it didn't move on at times. I saw this movie in Icelandic, so that may be a reason why I didn't like it too much. However, if that was the case, I wouldn't like Storks, which I also saw in Icelandic, but I liked that movie.

This is the reason why I only remember the second half as a kid.

6 Auto is a Forgettable Villain (Wall-E)

I wouldn't say forgettable, but just that he could have had a better role in the film. This is coming from a big fan who has this as his favorite film of all time.

Wall-E is, in my opinion, the best Pixar movie. It's emotional, fun, and has a very important message.

The only forgettable thing was the villain, Auto, a steering wheel who follows orders. He barely had any point, and the movie could've been done without him and just had a normal steering wheel. But he looks cool, I'll admit.

The real villain of the movie was mankind themselves.

7 The Animation (Toy Story)

This is one of the CGI movies. (Not counting VeggieTales, the country that made both is ignorant about other countries existing.)

Since it's the first CGI animated movie ever, it doesn't look the absolute best, of course. Even to this day, it looks quite awesome, but it was definitely one of the weaker aspects of the movie.

The animation this film had was good for its time, at least back in 1995.

8 Not Too Colorful (Up)
9 Doesn't Make Much Sense (Cars 2)

I figured out people would add this no matter what, and I guess this is one flaw of the movie.

10 Boring (The Good Dinosaur)

I agree and will say that I didn't want to see it to begin with, but I was roped into seeing it. The result was me not caring and never seeing it again since I watched it almost 7 years ago.

I also think the idea of changing history and switching roles so that the dinosaurs don't get wiped out by the meteor, and the humans are more wild while the dinosaurs have more human characteristics, is a little odd and absurd if you ask me.

SO BORING. Thank you. I am not the only one who feels like this.

Great animation, but boring storyline and unlikeable characters.

The Contenders
11 Cutting Bo Peep from the Movie (Toy Story 3)

Yo, it was supposed to be empty. It was actually a decent idea, showing that Andy had moved on from some of his toys. You know what I mean?

True, I mean sure they give us an explanation for why she isn't there, but she was so awesome. Luckily, she will probably reappear in Toy Story 4.

12 Mater Being the Main Character (Cars 2)

This is the reason why it's the worst Pixar movie. I finally understand 10 years later after once liking this failure of a movie many years ago.

You can't just shift all the attention from the main character that makes this franchise loved to a side character who becomes the main character. You cannot change that ever.

This is the equivalent of a movie with Carrot Top as the main character.

13 Rehash of the First Movie (Finding Dory)

I will say that this is one of my more favorable ones in terms of recent years since the 2010s were a hit-or-miss decade for me.

14 Bonnie Abandoning Woody (Toy Story 4)

This is why no one likes Bonnie.

15 Weak Plot (Ratatouille)

Whoever said that this is the worst Pixar movie, I hate to say this, but I beg to differ. It's easily a top 10 Pixar film for me.

16 Cliche Characters (Inside Out)

There is a scene where Joy - the default "happy" emotion - desperately cries. Now, I wouldn't call that exactly a cliché, would you?

Ok, but that's the point! They are emotions!

17 Terrible Main Villain (The Incredibles 2)

Actually, the main villain is kind of problematic for a kids' movie because she actually has a point!

Yet she ends up in prison despite her attempts to help other people avoid what her parents went through. Her dad refused to go to the safe room because he tried to contact superheroes to save him instead. He believed in the superheroes way too much, and the superheroes didn't show up in the end. Her parents died.

She's just trying to protect people from what might happen.

18 Overly Emotional (The Good Dinosaur)

It's only overly emotional for someone who, unlike many others, actually enjoyed it.

19 Predictable (Monsters University)

Although it has twists and stuff, the movie is pretty predictable. You know Mike and Sully will be together, and Randall will be evil and so on.

The movie has some twists, but it's still fairly predictable.

20 Being a Love Story (Toy Story 4)
21 Little to No Plot (Inside Out)
22 Plagiarism (The Good Dinosaur)

If anyone says this is plagiarism, they are wrong. They just want to give this film more of the hate it deserves.

I would not say that it is plagiarizing other older films that even I have not seen yet, but the plot stunk more than almost any other film made by this studio.

Rips off The Land Before Time by making one of the main character's parents die early on. On top of being an animated dinosaur movie with a "Point A to Point B" plot, it also rips off Ice Age with Spot and his arc being very similar to that of the Ice Age baby.

23 The Original Ending Where Lightning Beats Jackson Storm Being Cut (Cars 3)
24 Creepy Imagery (Coco)

Exactly why I wasn't into it. The plot had too much "death," and with all the singing involved, it feels like a classic film made by Disney. That's not the kind of stuff that Pixar is usually known for.

25 The Introduction (Up)

Oh, this will be controversial for certain. However, I personally feel that the first few minutes of Up were rather boring-sob stories have never really been interesting. The movie is phenomenal once that is over with.
