i loved it. very funny. have yet to be disappointed by Pixar. when your 'worst' movie is A Bugs Life, you are doing pretty well, (in my opinion.) although, honestly i am more looking foward to The Incredibles. great teaser. hmm... thoughts?
i fucking hate pixar
and the tv spots that appear on television every 15 seconds make me wanna put a gun to my head.
i think pixar does some good stuff... monster inc. was great man. looking forward to seeing finding nemo.

wow. yeah, thats pretty harsh. please do elaborate. whats wrong with pixar?
I like Toy Story, Monsters Inc, and Finding Nemo for their complete sincerity. You can't find that in a movie like Shrek.
Nemo has all the delicate emotion of Monsters Inc, and all the perspective of Bambi or Planet of the Apes. I always enjoy the "human as evil animal killer" thing.
The plot and story could have been much better, but it was all done so perfectly. Really an unoriginal and (on its surface) boring story... but they make it work. Beautiful animation. Rich, colorful, and not trying to be too realistic (that would be creepy).
Pixar is out to profit from the hands of Mini Van driving Soccer families...Every fucking movie they release has some connection to a corporation of the same goal. Pixar simply uses computer animation of a very dull and to the point sort of way. I'm not at all completely against the use of computers for film. I think david fincher & paul thomas anderson use cgi to it's full advantage in a very original way...When a movie is entirely made up of computer animation with no creativity and a G-rated plot then i get annoyed...i keep remembering the fish with the god damned surfer voice in those commercials. the voice overs are out to please kids it seems...the supposed "humor" just isnt funny to me....it makes me sick to my stomach. Simply put I feel Pixar is taking advantage of theater space with their propaganda bullshit. they seem a part of all that is wrong with this day... Not to judge differing opinions, this is just how I feel about Pixar.
So, you would rather have your 4 year old see boogie nights than Finding Nemo? There are some movies that are made to appease the younger audience. If you ask me there aren't enough G or PG rated movies in theaters. Maybe they aren't as groundbreaking as PDL, but they put a smile on a childs face and that to me is not a bad thing.
P.S. I'm sorry if I offended anyone. I certantly don't mean it. It is 4 am and I can rant about things when I am tired.
P.S.S. (For the record PTA is my favorite director and I would in no way try to put down his films. I just don't think they are for my children.)
I think Pixar is one of the best companies in Hollywood. Their output is so consistently amazing, and Finding Nemo is no exception. I didn't love it as much as Monsters Inc (which is a truly great film) or the Toy Story movies, but I liked it a whole heck of a lot all the same. I'd go see this again before I see Matrix Reloaded for a second time.

What ever happened to movies like The Never Ending Story & Ghostbusters for kids?....the kinda crap they are coming out with nowadays is just fucking screen saver trash. if kids like it then they are shameless regardless, but i cant help but feel its a tragedy there are no films of quality for children to watch without reaching for a VHS.
Anyway this is all beside the point. ..if this was a nickelodeon message board id never had said anything to begin with. we are all far beyond the age though.
monsters inc was fucking great
i was turned off by the albert brookes ellen degenerous casting in nemo
it was like pandering to hipsters
by the way this i will say when ellen is not going on and on about politics, she is one of the most gifted comics around
and coming from me , that says a lot, you would think i would hate her
but she is a fucking great stand up, and has great comedic instincts
but that whole ann heche era made me ill
but i did love her hbo special she did last, any student of comedy can watch her special and david cross's special and tell you which one is a real comic
Obviously it's David Cross
And I think the last good children's movie was Babe
Quote from: Bill Maplewoodwe are all far beyond the age though.
what the fuck? i'm sorry, i'm 19yrs 5 months and 8 days old, what should i like?
maybe u could direct me to the corresponding chart or the educational authorities that drilled that shit into ur head. if anyone's braindead here it's u for buying into cheap advertising telling u that Toy Story or Monsters Inc aren't worthy of 12yr+ old eyes.
Nemo was a unique film. I watched it with some pretty cynical assholes who think it's fun and cute to trash kids movies, but what I find really great about Pixar is how their films work for children and adults without pandering to the LCD of fart/penis jokes a la Shrek. Another classic achievement, and I look forward to the incredibles! That trailer was hysterical.

well, i didnt think it was very "dull" when pixar put out the first completely 3D animated movie of all time? i actually thought it was sort of "original".
"NO Creativity". okay, now its clear you obviously dont have ANY IDEA what you are talking about. take a few minutes and pop in any of their magnificent DVDs and flip through the pages and pages and pages of concept designs, character models, test animations and get a clue as to the thousands of hours of creativity that go into making something like this. or pick up the ART OF book for Monsters Inc and see some of the wonderful creativity that goes into making these pixar movies. im 21, and an animator, and happen to think that animation is just as valid an art form as anything shot on film. its one thing if you dont like the movies, but dont trash the art form. or the most consistently enjoyable studio making films right now.
Yeah, the pure amount of imagination and creativity that goes into any random composition in any of their films is just mind boggling. The details are endless.
To say they're using CG uncreatively is a strange point to make. It can't really be compared to what Fincher or PTA are doing, since they're simply using it as an aide to their live action stories. Pixar is making movies that couldn't be made with live action, and they're constantly advancing the technology with every film they've made. The CG breakthroughs they've made have been just as important as the stuff in T2 or Jurassic Park or The Matrix -- if not more so.
And finally, their storytelling is just marvelous. It was mentioned that they don't have to succumb to bathroom humor, like Shreck -- which is true, and their films are absolutely hilarious (the seagulls in Finding Nemo had me rolling). They also don't have any sarcasm or cynical humor -- their stories are sincere, and in that sincerity they manage to appeal to adults just as much as children. They don't need any entendres, because the films work so well on a universal level. The only other childrens films that really compare with what Pixar does is the (slightly more mature) work of Miyazaki -- who John Lasseter regards as his biggest influence.
I really don't like Pixar movies and it has nothing to do with the animation, I can respect that
but no, I don't like them at all
Quote from: Bill MaplewoodPixar is out to profit from the hands of Mini Van driving Soccer families...Every fucking movie they release has some connection to a corporation of the same goal.
Sorry.. I'm just not making the connection here....
Monsters Inc was a direct parody of California's energy crisis, and it had the whole evil corporation thing tied in, which I always like.
We're talking about Steve Jobs' company here... he's not exactly a corporate whore...
I love Pixar and will defend it... however I have come to express my disapointment that you guys didn't let me know how fucking popular this movie is... My fav. major theater is showing it almost every thirty minutes, so I figured getting a ticket wouldn't be hard... WRONG! Sold out every fucking show before five. I had to end up seeing Bruce Almighty.
and it was like riot control in the lobby... the manager screaming at people in line to make sure infants were in laps and that no one left open seats and everyone had their ticket out.
Man... and the wife doesn't want to see it, so I can't go tomorrow.
and I don't want to hear the "ya shoulda known"s...I want appologies

Okay, yep I have no idea what im talking about. i am wrong and you are right. long live pixar and the beautiful, simply hilarious films they produce that we can all enjoy as heart warmed human beings. thanks
I wanna see this...I need a good fun movie to see...haven't seen a single movie in theatres for over a month, not since All the Real Girls over spring break actually, April 18th I think it was. Nothing really interested me till this one, I'd love to see it. I really like Monsters Inc and Toy Story. I heard this one references Jaws and The Shining and stuff, I hope that's true...I think that'd be really cool to see in a Pixar film. I really respect and like Pixar and their contribution to animated film which I never thought I would ever be interested in again after the disney films when I was in the single digits. Just wish they could go easier on the overplayed ads..that's really my only complaint...but then, all that has already been mentioned. I probably just need to watch less tv.

I was forced by some friends to go see Finding Nemo yesterday and I'm thankful I let myself get dragged. Really enjoyed the movie. Good shit! It actually scared me a few times.
Nemo was great. Pixar still hasn't made a bad film.
The animation was really good (as expected). I loved the cloudiness of the water and that you could see the little specs of sand in the water, etc...
The Incredibles teaser was great too.

Stop being agist, JB.
I really want to watch this but I don't know what snack I should bring in to eat while watching. I guess I'll just get a large popcorn and orange soda. Damn though, lots of sugar. If my doctor sees a lot of sugar in my body next week, he'll want to get a blood sample. I think I hate blood samples more than I hate McDonalds. I don't know what to do. Should I go with instant gratification?
im going to buy an orange soda right now. i haven't had one in months. i like slice myself.

You're right. I do find a film like Ghostbusters to be so much better than anything they put out now for kids. I sincerely wish more talented directors/writers were doing some great kids movies. I think it was C.S. Lewis who said that something for kids should be just as entertaining for adults. I guess just with simpler subject matter.
But I do enjoy Pixar. The Toy Story stuff is pretty funny.

Well, I always knew whatever I said was probably going to be thrown back at me by P so I would really really try to make whatever I was trying to say well-thought out and nearly impossible to argue with but now I really don't care.
I finally saw this film and not only loved the entertainment value, but feel it will be one of the best movies of 2003. I am very sure it will be on my final top ten list for 2003 and if I had to place it in my top 2002, it would be #4 likely, right behind Minority Report and ahead of Songs From the Second Floor. I think the movie is that good. Like all the Pixar films, it takes a known area of our thought and plays with all that can happen with it if in the mind of the funniest and young in mind guy we all knew. But the difference with this one is that it goes beyond all the others and three fourths of the way through, I could kinda feel that Toy Story would have ended there. That all its cuteness and appeal would have been done but Finding Nemo is continually inventive and seems to find freedom in its world and everything that can be done in it. The filmmakers only feel the drive to keep pushing the story into new terrain because of big the scope can be in just dealing with the ocean. Dialogue and character interaction also are continually inventive and I smiled all the way through out this movie. I've been very critical and seen by some as against entertainment films and over analytical, but thats because I never felt all the potential with entertainment films were even being close to met. I've seen so many movies before that are being repeated all the time in Hollywood now. But when a movie like Finding Nemo comes along, its all good because it shows Hollywood (in my eyes) can compete creatively with the best of the movies, anywhere.

QuoteI like Toy Story, Monsters Inc, and Finding Nemo for their complete sincerity. You can't find that in a movie like Shrek.
Shrek is an emotionally void film. I personally think it sucks.
saw finding nemo last night and i really enjoyed it. not quite up to monster's inc. but certainly a lot better than most of the stuff out there now. it also provided a much needed break from finals studying/falling asleep.
this was a great movie. one of the most touching movies i've seen in recent years. even though the supporting cast of characters weren't as dynamic as before (Toy Story) I still could see this being my favorite Pixar movie yet.
I agree. A wonderful film (with or without my 7 year old). If someone can hook me up with a promo nemo aquarium (it's a cool little item that has a floating nemo/dorie) my kid would flip! If you have one, you'll know it. Send me an email, maybe we can work out a trade???
Quote from: jonasThe Incredibles teaser was great too.
Missed it, curious, wanna see it again?

I liked Monsters Inc... Even though I hate Disney. I don't have children so I have a right to hate Disney. Until I have children, then I might re-consider how eveil I think Disney is. The only thing I LIKE about Disney is that they hire EVERYONE..... I just don't like them hiring CHILDREN in factories. I hate McDonald's too for having their stupid toys. ok?
:shock: :shock: :shock:
Quote from: pixelnixelI liked Monsters Inc... Even though I hate Disney.
Make no mistake... Pixar is not Disney.
And Steve Jobs (CEO of Pixar
and Apple) is trying to peel Disney's claws off his company.
I also have a pretty large grudge against Disney, and I love Pixar movies...
anybody who hates Pixars solely because of Disney is an ignorant motherfucker.
Incredible!
The animation was jaw-dropping. This movie was funny as hell, and yet had a lot of heart. Don't tell me I'm the only one who cried at the end...or at least will admit to doing so. Highly recommended.

wow. i can't wait.
i can not.
I didn't cry at the end, but I did feel a little tug at the tear ducts. And anyway, I cried like a baby at the end of Monsters Inc, so don't feel bad.
Very, very cute movie. And, yes, it did get emotional at the end. Pixar never seems to disappoint.
I wish some of Pixar's talent would co-op with Disney's crew.
Only really comes alive IMO during the scenes where Jr. is in the tank at the dental office. Ocean scenes were dull. I also thought it was overly sentimental at the end.
Burger King made the whopper, and it was a huge success. Then they made the chicken whopper, which is exactly the same as a whopper, only it has chicken instead. The chicken whopper is good, but they tried to hard to emulate the original, emotionally involving Whopper.
I'm sorry though, Finding Nemo just felt superficial to me. Monsters, Inc., on the otherhand was much more heartfelt and emotionally real. Anyone else feel the same way or am I typing this like an arrogant prick?
i got very very psyked reading all of you peoples responds to this movie and then i go to look up when its gonna be released in denmark and i find out its november. shit shit shit.
shit.
It's a good movie, my sister really loved it too, but she's a sucker for Pixar. I'm not so much. I liked Toy Story and that's about it, and now Nemo but less.
Anyway, it's still light years better than 2fast2furious I imagine
I saw FN last night and enjoyed it immensely. I didn't think it was too cutesy or maudlin. It was very humorous and touching without having me roll my eyes. The DLP presentation was flawless. The Knick Knack cartoon they showed before the feature was interesting. I hadn't seen it before.
it was good. but i hope pixar gets off the standard "journey" plot about a quest to find someone/something with rising conflicts and halarious results. they can keep the halarious results actually.
I loved this movie!!!! Disney should kiss Pixar's ASS!!!!![/img]
I've never been a fan of Disney, but Pixar has always been #1 or at least pretty high up with the big wigs in animation.
My admiration began with Toy Story. I can even go as far as to say I highly anticipated Toy Story 2, and rather enjoyed it. I think Toy Story had one of the best soundtracks for a cartoon that I can think of right off the top of my head.

Hah, yeah, I understand where you're coming from. But to me the films are different enough that I don't find them derivative of each other. One thing I didn't like with A Bug's Life and Finding Nemo was the huge eyes on the bugs and fish. Do kids only respond to overtly cute art or something? That look was appropriate for the Toy Story films and Monsters, Inc. Pixar seems to be moving away from that for The Incredibles, though, so we won't be seeing any doe-eyed superheroes.

I personally liked the fish better with the big eyes, it gives them each more individual character through expression. And arent they coming out with a movie about Cars? I expect it to be like the Chevron commercials
John Lasseter's next movie, as a director, will be about automobiles. I think the title actually is simply Cars, at this point. I imagine it will be like the Chevron commercials, too -- only a MILLION times cooler and more awesome, as is usually the Pixar way.
Pixar Talks The Incredibles And Cars
Cindy Pearlman spoke with Lee Unkrich, co-director of Finding Nemo:
Could there be a... "Toy Story 3?" "Monsters Inc. 2?" on the drawing board? Unkrich laughs and says, "We hear a lot of demand for 'Monsters 2,' but that's not on the list right now." He adds, "A lot of us at Pixar would love to do another 'Toy Story,' but there are no concrete plans."
What is cooking is "The Incredibles." "It's about a family of superheroes who go into the witness-protection program," says the director. "We're also working on 'Cars.' The main characters are cars and the whole thing takes place on Route 66."
Quote from: MacGuffin"We're also working on 'Cars.' The main characters are cars and the whole thing takes place on Route 66."

Some possible spoilers...
The key to a good movie? Three good scenes, no bad ones. Well,
Finding Nemo had about five or six great scenes, and not a bad one in sight. Great film. Not one of the best of all time or anything, but definitely worth the $5.25 I shelled out on my ticket.
Some memorable scenes:
- The fishaholics anonymous meeting, and good ol' absent-minded Dory. Remember, "fish are friends, not food."
- The Fish Tank as a whole, really. The sheer ingenuity the writers showed in thinking like fish, showing how they thought about busting out of there by clogging the filtering mechanism.
- The scene where Marlin tells the turtles the story of how he's trying to find his son and it spreads all over the ocean. Priceless.
- Everything in the third act, really, from the scene in the dentists office (the priceless look of the kid on the couch in the waiting room), to again, the intelligent writers and their remembering established plot points, using the "swim down" mechanism so they'll save Dory.[/list:u]
I agree. My gf dragged me to this movie, and I was quite embarassed when I left the theater--because I fucking LOVED this movie. Disney, get the hell outta the way, because Pixar RULES.
mine mine mine mine
hahaha that seagull stuff is gold
i loved all the stuff in the dentists office.
More great stuff:
Dory trying to talk to the whale
The picture of the little girl with the braces
The scary light fish thingy (anyone know the name of that thing?)
The jellyfish scene
Pixar makes excellent movies, always has. I loved Finding Nemo. If you don't like their corporate face for whatever insane reason, you have to admire their talent at screenwriting and getting the absolute most out of a character's facial gestures. Every character is a marvel of economical expression.
One facet I thoroughly enjoyed—all the references to the thriller/horror genre:
1. Bruce, the shark, refers to Bruce, the mechanical shark used in the filming of Jaws.
2. The gulls swarming en masse recalls Hitchcock's The Birds.
3. The shower sequence stabbing string music from Psycho rings out every time that evil fish-killing girl appears.
I think there was another obvious one, but I can't come up with it at the moment. Anyone notice any others?
edit: You could almost read Dory's short-term memory problem as a nod to Memento.
its also great that at $253 million in its 5th week of release it looks to surpass Monsters Inc.'s $255 million this week. which will make it the highest grossing pixar flick EVER. great news, especially since there was probably some worry because it was the first pixar movie to open up during the summer and maybe it would get lost among all the other family flicks out there. hopefully it will sail past Shreks total and rack up an oscar.

Care to make it interesting?
i was pleased enough with this movie that i think i'm going to buy it when it comes out.
just saw this movie tonight, it was great. I think pixar's formula is to incorporate very geeky The Far Side-like humour with sentiments. you know what I mean by that Far Side like humour? I hope you do 'cause I dunno if I can articulate it more than this.
i just saw this finally and, well basically every positive thing you could say about it has already been said, so i'll just say that i loved it. fucking loved it. ate up every minute with a spoon, one of the best movies i've seen all year. there i said it.
Already seen it twice and wanna see it again, to be honest...
If I were 6 years old, I would be a complete addict to this...couldn't stop watching it...
I'll wait to see if there's a better movie this year, but this is an instant classic. Is the best animated movie i've seen since The Lion King...

Finding Nemo Swims Onto DVD November 4
Source: USA Today Sunday, July 27, 2003
Buena Vista Home Entertainment will announce Monday that Finding Nemo, the biggest film of 2003 with $312.7 million so far, swims onto DVD November 4.
"Who would have thought? It's pretty wild and we're all pinching ourselves," writer/director Andrew Stanton tells USA Today. The Oscar-nominated filmmaker co-wrote all four previous Disney/Pixar films.
The two-disc "Nemo" DVD will include a Jean-Michel Cousteau documentary of Australia's Great Barrier Reef, where the film is set, a fish encyclopedia, deleted scenes, a cool option that allows you to turn your TV into a virtual aquarium, and a sneak peek at the next Disney/Pixar film, The Incredibles, opening November 2004.
As for Nemo's future, there are no plans for a sequel yet. "We're not going to let the hype influence us into making rash decisions," Stanton says. "If there is a sequel, it will happen when there's a story that's equal or better than the first."
I can't imagine how they would do a sequel. "Finding Nemo Again"?

'Nemo' Performs Swimmingly in Its Home-Video Debut
Disney had a big fish story to tell Wednesday as its Buena Vista Home Entertainment division reported that eight million VHS and DVD copies of Finding Nemo were sold on the first day on the shelves, representing $150 million in revenue. The figure far surpassed the previous record holder, Columbia TriStar's Spider-Man, which sold 7 million copies on its first day. The previous record for an animated film was Disney/Pixar's Monsters, Inc., which moved 5 million copies on its first day. Disney said that DVD sales represented 80 percent of the total, VHS, the remainder. Several retailers said that they had sold three-quarters of their supplies before the day was over. The figures were particularly impressive given the fact that only the Circuit City chain was advertising the Nemo DVD for less than the suggested retail price of $19.95. Company executives told Video Store magazine that the movie is on track to become the best-selling home video of 2003 and the top-selling DVD of all time.

I just saw Nemo for the first time last night. It was fucking great. Man i thought it would be a nice fun movie but i actually laughed a lot and the animation was superb. I gotta go pick this one up on DVD now.

I SO agree with you. And I'm damn glad 'lil Nemo kicked Spidey's ass. Nemo's a better movie all around, IMHO.
