Dreamworks vs Pixar

[QUOTE="Nerd_Man"]

Too bad Brad Bird wasn't at Pixar at the time of him making The Iron Giant... That film would have gained massive success if it was in the hands of Pixar. That would have been complete win for both Mr. Bird and Pixar. Not that they don't win as is.. lol

Nerd_Man

I'm not that familiar with Ghibli, but my vote would go to Classic Disney over Pixar, no question.

Classic Disney has tons of amazing films. Some of my favorites will have to go to Pinocchio and Peter Pan.

Agreed. Always liked Alice in Wonderland, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, Dumbo, Fantasia, The Junglebook, Robin Hood, The Fox and the Hound, and Aladdin. :D

They have Pinocchio on Blu-Ray? :o

I really, really can't wait until The Lion King comes out on Blu-ray. I'm buying that and watching it as soon as it's out :D.

Yeah, I'd definitely love to check it out on Blu-Ray, too.

Not to mention Pinocchio gave birth to one (Or possibly THE) of the most recognizable films songs of all time (When You Wish Upon A Star). :D

Man, I really need to watch some of these again... Of that list, the most recent one I saw watched was Dumbo and Aladdin (Two more amazing Disney films), but the rest I just haven't seen in ages and my memories towards them are a bit faded... I remember I absolutely ADORED The Jungle Book, Robin Hood and The Fox and the Hound when I was a kid... So maybe I should watch them again sometime.

I voted for Dreamworks because I was feeling sorry for them.

Pixar has always done a consistantly better job at making good movies than Dreamworks has.

Yeah, I was a huge fan of Robin Hood as a kid, as well as the others. You know, I never really liked The Little Mermaid, but I still recognize that it's a great movie.

Anyway, I choose Pixar, by far.

Speaking of Blu Ray releases, I can't wait to see this and this in high definition next year :D

[QUOTE="chessmaster1989"]

[QUOTE="sammyjenkis898"] I keep checking Amazon to see if The Lion King has been announced on Blu-Ray. I refuse to buy it on DVD.

I'm one of the few people I know who really likes the extended editions of the Lord of the Rings movies. Most people complain they're too long... :?

Ahh yes, Fantasia.

That scene with Chernabog on Bald Mountain was just amazing.
One of my personal favorite parts in Fantasia was Sorcerer's Apprentice. Magical. Simply amazing.

Honestly, the animation in a lot of Disney movies is just astounding.

[QUOTE="Sajedene"]

[QUOTE="Nerd_Man"]

Dreamworks and Dreamworks Animation are two completely different divisions. Disney bought that deal of distributing Dreamworks films last year and yet Dreamworks Animation was not included in the deal, because the Animation branch is completely different from the main company.

Nerd_Man

No, I think it's pretty much a given if you're going to compare Pixar to Dreamworks that you're talking about animation.

In your case, you voted for a completely different company.

I don't remember enough of the movie to say for certain that it was the best, but it certainly was amazing :D. Honestly, that entire movie was fantastic.

[QUOTE="Nerd_Man"]

[QUOTE="Sajedene"] EXACTLY. That is why I voted Dreamworks. If the topic said Dreamworks Animation then its completely different and I would have definitely voted Pixar. Like I said, it might not be a big deal here at GS, but I was trained to make it a big deal. :\

I was not saying Pixar doesn't count as real film. I was saying this thread was about both Pixar and Dreamworks Animation SKG (The TC did not include "Animation SKG", but that's because it's pretty obvious he was referring to that in a thread with Pixar). Dreamworks Animation and the main Dreamworks company are two completely independent companies now.

Pixar destroys Dreamworks

I dunno. Ice Age and Shrek were amazing, so Dreamworks. Pixar still owns thoughRobboElRobbo

Ice Age is a Blue Sky Studios film, not Dreamworks Animation.

Definitely Pixar, their films just share my sense of humour in every way. Also, Toy Story is the greatest animated film ever made.

Very true, although I've made that same mistake before :P.

Ice Age was amusing, definitely. It wasn't anything fantastic, but it was worth watching.

I watched Ice Age for the first time in years just the other week.... And it made me wonder why exactly did I love it before...

One thing I realized about it was it just had way too many slapstick gags in order to be funny, which I just do not find funny anymore as I've grown mature. That's also why I've grown tired of Dreamworks (Well, one of the many reasons). Even Disney started to fall for this trap which led to their eventual downfall of traditional animation (I'm happy they're bringing it back though with The Princess and the Frog). In a way these are the types of films that gave animation a bad name over the years. Because they began to stupify and rely on slapstick humor just so the kids would want to see them. The unfortunate effect was that these films mostly appealed to kids, and thus the kiddy label for animation was born.
In a way, Pixar saved my interest for animation over the years. They've continually produced animated films that other companies just don't anymore. They have some sort of magical ability of making films that didn't feel tacked on that both kids and adults can enjoy shamelessly. I'm glad that Pixar is becoming more of a rebirth of animation just how Walt was in his years, and bringing the Disney company back to old roots.

Chew on this:

Dreamworks makes better horror movies.

chessmaster1989

Toy Story 3: The Revenge of Woody

Finding Nemo 2: The Curse of the Frying Pan

That's twisted.

Bug's Life 2: someone called terminex

This question should not even be asked Pixar is the ruler of the animated movie world.

of curse pixar wins this round!:D

The first step to determining which side to choose in something like this is to see which side made Toy Story. If neither side did, then you must go on to more complex matters.

Let's see if this applies to this argument. Oh, Pixar made Toy Story! That means they win everything. There you go.

Discussion over.:D

Did anyone post that Pixar vs Dreamworks picture? The one where Dreamworks characters all make that smile? Anyway, Pixar by a million miles.
