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:
- Ratatouille - 96
- Toy Story - 91
- The Incredibles - 90
- Finding Nemo - 89
- Toy Story 2 - 87
- Monsters, Inc - 78
- A Bug’s Life - 77
- Cars - 73
Which is funny, because my order is:
- Toy Story
- The Incredibles
- Monsters, Inc
- Finding Nemo
- A Bug’s Life
- Toy Story 2
- Ratatouille
- 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?
