Pixar's movies in order of Metacritic score

Erin and I were talking tonight about how no one ever talks about Pixar's A Bug's Life. It wasn't a bad movie, and certainly not the worst movie Pixar's ever made, but it's simply never mentioned as part of Pixar's catalog.

So I decided to look up the scores of all of Pixar's movies on Metacritic:


  1. Ratatouille - 96

  2. Toy Story - 91

  3. The Incredibles - 90

  4. Finding Nemo - 89

  5. Toy Story 2 - 87

  6. Monsters, Inc - 78

  7. A Bug's Life - 77

  8. Cars - 73


Which is funny, because my order is:

  1. Toy Story

  2. The Incredibles

  3. Monsters, Inc

  4. Finding Nemo

  5. A Bug's Life

  6. Toy Story 2

  7. Ratatouille

  8. Cars


Which doesn't put A Bug's Life in a very different position, but there's a big gap between 6 and 7 in my list. I really didn't care much for Ratatouille (although Erin did), and I really, really didn't care for Cars.

I have high hopes for WALL-E though. Perhaps it can take the number 2 or 3 spot?
