      Hey,welcome in newanimated-movies.blogspot.com the first and best blog specialize in the new animated movies. Today we’re counting down our picks for the top 10 Pixar movies.

#10# “A Bug’s Life” (1998)


Mashing up Aesop’s “The Ant and the Grasshopper” fable with Akira Kurosawa’s “Seven Samurai” period piece, “A Bug’s Life” follows an ant named Flik and his insect friends as they protect the colony from grasshoppers. Like most Pixar flicks, it’s got incredible animation and comedy that’ll appeal to kids and adults; but it’s the stunning visuals, its sense of adventure and dialogue that put it here.

A Bug's Life (stylized as a bug's life) is a 1998 American computer-animated comedy adventure film produced by Pixar Animation Studios. Directed by John Lasseter and co-directed by Andrew Stanton, the film involves a misfit ant, Flik, who is looking for "tough warriors" to save his colony from greedy grasshoppers. Flik recruits a group of bugs that turn out to be an inept circus troupe. Randy Newman composed the music for the film, which stars the voices of Dave Foley, Kevin Spacey, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Hayden Panettiere, David Hyde Pierce, Joe Ranft, Denis Leary, Jonathan Harris, Madeline Kahn, Bonnie Hunt, Brad Garrett, and Mike McShane.

#9# – “Toy Story 2” (1999)

This flick was initially conceived as a direct-to-video film; but we’re sure Pixar was glad they released “Toy Story 2” in theaters instead. This comedy adventure featuring Woody, Buzz Lightyear and company didn’t only prove sequels aren’t always bad, but also showed they could measure up to the originals. With more fully developed characters, many funny moments and fantastic animation, it definitely deserved its critical acclaim and $485 million in box office receipts.

Woody is stolen by a toy collector, prompting Buzz Lightyear and his friends to vow to rescue him. However, Woody finds the idea of immortality in a museum tempting. Many of the original characters and voices from Toy Story returned for this sequel, and several new characters, including Jessie (Joan Cusack), Barbie (Jodi Benson), and Mrs. Potato Head (Estelle Harris), were introduced.

#8# – “Ratatouille” (2007)


This is an inspiring tale about following your dreams, even if it’s not what others expect. Focused on a rat named Remy who wants to become a chef, this movie’s so charming you’ll want to believe a friendship between a rat and a human is actually possible. People related so well to these animated characters that the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences awarded it an Oscar.

The film stars the voices of Patton Oswalt as Remy, an anthropomorphic rat who is interested in cooking; Lou Romano as Linguini, a young garbage boy who befriends Remy; Ian Holm as Skinner, the head chef of Auguste Gusteau's restaurant; Janeane Garofalo as Colette, a rôtisseur at Gusteau's restaurant; Peter O'Toole as Anton Ego, a restaurant critic; Brian Dennehy as Django, Remy's father and leader of his clan; Peter Sohn as Emile, Remy's older brother; and Brad Garrett as Auguste Gusteau, a recently deceased chef. The plot follows Remy, who dreams of becoming a chef and tries to achieve his goal by forming an alliance with a Parisian restaurant's garbage boy.

#7# – “Monsters, Inc.” (2001)


With its creatively designed monsters and visuals, “Monsters, Inc.” delighted both the young and young at heart. But it’s Sulley’s hilarious friendship with Mike and heartwarming relationship with Boo that makes the movie such an entertaining take on our childhood fear of closet monsters. Pixar created such a magical world with this film that the 2013 prequel, “Monsters University,” was also a critical and commercial success.

Monsters, Inc. employees generate their city's power by targeting and scaring children, but they are themselves afraid that the children may contaminate them; when one child enters Monstropolis, Mike and Sulley must return her

#6 – “The Incredibles” (2004)


Can you go wrong with superheroes, comedy and computer animation? Pixar can’t: this winning formula nabbed the studio massive box office success and multiple accolades. By putting humans at its center and including some implied sexuality and violence, “The Incredibles” is one of Pixar’s most grown-up films. And with a killer use of action and some great advances in animation techniques, it’s certainly super.

The story follows a family of superheroes living a quiet suburban life, forced to hide their powers. When father Bob Parr's yearning for his glory days and desire to help people drags him into battle with an evil villain and his killer robot, the entire Parr family is forced into action to save the world.

#5# – “WALL-E” (2008)


Bringing together sci-fi, romantic comedy and robots in a dark vision of the future where human beings are too fat to move, “WALL-E” is unlike any Pixar movie before it. Part of what makes the Oscar-winning flick so fantastic is that we’re somehow able to connect with its robots, since they’re able to say so much with so few words. But it also has wondrous visuals and a cautionary-but-optimistic message that speaks to all.

Story

WALL-E (stylized with an interpunct as WALL·E) is a 2008 American CGI science-fiction romantic comedy film produced by Pixar Animation Studios and directed by Andrew Stanton. The story follows a robot named WALL-E, who is designed to clean up a waste-covered Earth far in the future. He falls in love with another robot named EVE, who also has a programmed task, and follows her into outer space on an adventure that changes the destiny of both his kind and humanity. Both robots exhibit an appearance of free will and emotions similar to humans, which develop further as the film progresses.

#4# – “Up” (2009)


At times happy, heartbreaking, frustrating, exciting and inspiring, “Up” revolves around a senior citizen whose attempt to fly to South America by tying thousands of balloons to his house becomes complicated thanks to a young boy. With endearing characters, hilarious situations and a tear-inducing montage featuring Carl Fredericksen and his late wife, it’s no wonder it was the second animated film to be nominated for a Best Picture Oscar.

By tying thousands of balloons to his home, 78-year-old Carl sets out to fulfill his lifelong dream to see the wilds of South America and to complete a promise made to his lifelong love. The film was co-directed by Bob Peterson, with music composed by Michael Giacchino.

#3# – “Finding Nemo” (2003)


It’s not an Oscar winner and one of 2003’s highest-grossing films for nothing: by drawing on a father’s bond for his child and the lengths he’ll go to protect him, “Finding Nemo” is universal, relatable and emotional. But that’s not all – thanks to its fishy characters and the cast’s incredible voice-over, Pixar created a visually spectacular flick that’s also touching and funny.

Along the way, Marlin learns to take risks and let Nemo take care of himself.

#2 – “Toy Story 3” (2010)


Just when you thought Pixar wouldn’t be able to top “Toy Story 2,” along comes “Toy Story 3.” Reuniting Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the gang, the third film sees Andy’s childhood playthings coping with their owner going to college. Mixing comedy, drama and action with dark themes, the detail-oriented film really toyed with our emotions (and even made us cry!). How’s that for a 3D computer-animated family flick?

The film was released worldwide from June through October in Disney Digital 3-D, RealD, and IMAX 3D.

#1 – “Toy Story” (1995)


It may be Pixar’s first feature length computer-animated offering, but it’s also their best. Using never-before-seen CGI techniques, the studio stunned moviegoers. It also captured our hearts with the witty and moving story of a bunch of toys that just wanna be played with. Thanks to a talented voice cast and its all-ages appeal, the critically acclaimed box office smash also inspired filmmakers to go to infinity and beyond when it comes to their art.

The Future of Animated movies

** 3D Animation **

** Combination of 3D and 2D **


Iron Giant -released in 1999 :

           Even if Iron Giant looks as if it were completely drawn the traditional way (cell by cell) .The big giant robot is actually designed in 3D and output as a 2D image using Maya with the added help of proprietary software.
          One of the drawbacks of this method is the perfect and rigid quality of the line rendered out of a 3D package. 
           The perfect line is what separated it from 2d techniques so the solution was to "simplifying the design somewhat and not having too many surface shading areas", says Brad Bird director of The Iron Giant. Secondly,Brian Gardner created a program that caused line imperfections on the Giant randomly.They called it Wobble.

Most of the backgrounds although 2d in look were also 3D renderings.The backgrounds were stretched a bit so so that it appeared as if you were going around something.

use of non-realistic photo realistic rendering in 3d - water color effects

"Character Animation is all about what the character is thinking...At times, he
was getting lost. Is he happy or sad? So
we punched it up. Rather than having
him just look up at the sky, we had him
jump off the ground just a bit. That
touch better communicates what he's
thinking, what he's feeling. That's all I
do all day long as a character animatormove
3d models to look like they're
thinking."






Dinosaur - released 2000

         With each new step into the next generation of computer graphics comes new and more believable

CGI characters such as those found in Dinosaur. In Dinosaur the creation and implementation of realistic digital hair on the lemurs is included.
