    Any of you guys seen this yet? It certainly gets into my top 5 Disney films. The humour is brilliant, and the whole 'under the sea' animation is totally authentic!

    "I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine. He shall be my Squishy"

    BTW, top 5 disney films (in no particular order)

    Finding Nemo
    Jungle Book
    Mary Poppins
    Emperor's New Groove
    Lion King

    I haven't seen this movie yet. I'm saving it for a transatlantic crossing - I love those sort of movies on a flight. I watched Monsters Inc for the first time on a flight and loved it.

    Anyways, I've never seen a bad Disney movie - they are always well drawn, well scripted, and have an excellent sound track.

    Their older stuff can be a bit lame, but you cannot argue with the colour and animation of Sleeping Beauty or Bambi. Their newer stuff has more humour in it, which appeals to me.

    Lion King is up there as one of my favourites, along with The Jungle Book. (Have you ever came home from the pub and watched The Jungle Book ? Its a good time!)

    And of course, no Disney thread would be complete without a mention of Tron, which is an amazing movie well ahead of its time, and which *still* stands up today.

    Yes indeedy. Disney & Pixar dazzle and deliver! I'm looking forward to this. Finding Nemo easily ousted the Lion King earlier this year as the most successful animated movie and having taken in a whopping $350million it could even be the biggest box office hit of year, surprising considering the strength of the competition - Matrix, Terminator, Lord of the Rings etc.

    Finding Nemo is an excellent treat. The whole thing is a shop full of eye candy. I don't rate it above such luminaries as Toy Story 1 & 2 or Monsters Inc, but such a distinction is hardly worth making because Pixar only make gold! :)

    My Pixar Film League:

    1) Toy Story
    2) Toy Story 2
    3) Monsters Inc
    4) Finding Nemo
    5) A Bug's Life

    But as I said, they're all well above excellent; all scoring within a percentage of one another!

    I am one of the only ones bitterly disappointed with Monsters Inc. I've seen it twice, and I only watched it the second time because I thought I must have missed something the first time, cos I didn't like it. I don't like John Goodman in Disney films. He was the only bad thing about THe Emperor's New Groove, but now he's in everything!

    I just found no decent humour in it, and the film, to me, was instantly forgettable. I remember the trailer more than the film (where they're playing charades and he guesses Star Wars straight away). The door chase was quite impressive, but not as good as the baggage chase in Toy Story 2.

    My pixar top 5 is

    1) Toy Story
    2) Finding Nemo
    3) Toy Story 2
    4) Bugs Life
    5) Monsters Inc

    I liked Finding Nemo more then Toy story. its just amazing! I also like the music in finding Nemo. its very flowing. there are some parts that arent the best, but I love the main theme.

    I can't wait until it comes to Sweden, and thankfully I'm living in town big enough so we will get it in English as well as Swedish.

    My favourite Disney's in no particular order:

    The Beauty and the Beast
    Robin Hood
    The little Mermaid
    The Jungle Book
    Mulan

    I would say yes but considering I work in a cinema and going to have screaming kids for the whole month that this is out I go with no.....although I'll probably enjoy it more when the hype calms down ;)
