September 21, 2018September 18, 2018 Ben

This post was originally published on April 8th 2013 A certain expectation, and maybe stigma, comes with any Disney film. There are always positives, particularly with the early, animated films.

Pixar Month: Cars 2 (2011) Review

September 20, 2018September 20, 2018 Ben

Pixar could be accused of creating a cheap cash-grab sequel with Cars 2. Cars wasn’t the greatest of Pixar movies and certainly wasn’t critically acclaimed but it did make a huge amount of money, particularly in merchandise, so a sequel seemed … Continue reading Pixar Month: Cars 2 (2011) Review

September 15, 2018September 13, 2018 Ben

Pixar are fantastic at taking an idea or concept and playing with it. The initial concept of “what if your toys are alive when you can’t see them” was a great one to develop, as was the idea of the monsters … Continue reading Pixar Month: Ratatouille (2007) Review

Pixar Month: Cars (2006) Review

September 14, 2018September 11, 2018 Ben

Pixar have managed to create animated movies that stay ahead of the curve. They have always been a step-ahead of the multiple animated releases which have cute furry animals learning lessons in “funny” adventures.
