Yes, I know Disney owns Pixar, but Pixar has all of the talent, so I deem it great enough to have a separate thread. Anyway, I'm seriously leaning towards Wall-E here, though Toy Story has it's place in my heart.

Ratatouille is the best film, probably, but the least likeable. I'm a Toy Story man, myself.

I didn't watched Wall-E though.

Toy Story and Monsters Inc, man. Maybe Finding Nemo as well. Oh, and The Incredibles was great.

I'm in love with their short film called Presto.
It was played before Wall-E in theaters, which was a mind-blowingly awesome movie of its own right.

Oh! I was totally going to mention that but it slipped my mind. Presto is brilliant. Pixar has a habit of making cool intros.

Finding Nemo is my definite favorite, although Toy Story is a close second. I didn't enjoy Wall-E very much at all.

I would go with either Ratatouille or The Incredibles in a pinch.

Ratatouille and Wall-E are the two best, easily. I can't decide which is better; on one hand, Wall-E is a sci-fi movie, which I usually default too in the event of a tie, but Ratatouille has Patton Oswalt.

I'm not in love with Toy Story 1 or 2. They're good, certainly better than Cars, which was a piece of crap, but I don't get what everyone sees in them.

Nostalgia, mostly.

Frankly, A Bug's Life is the second weakest picture after Cars. It's actually a really excellent movie, but Antz came out at the same time and scarred my memory, leaving me confused between the two of them.

Oh god, Antz. I totally agree with you on that. That movie burned my eyes.

Antz was actually frighteningly philosophically dense for a children's film.

I'd order the Pixar movies thusly:
Ratatouille
Finding Nemo
WALL-E
The Incredibles
Monsters, Inc.
Toy Story
A Bug's Life
Toy Story 2
Cars

Oh, God. My history with those movies was something like this:
I saw Antz, because I actually had a mild obsession with ants at the time (I owned several ant farms and was a SimAnt god). Then this thing called A Bug's Life sorta started popping into my vision, and it was just about bugs, so clearly Antz was better in my mind. And when I finally went to see A Bug's Life, I actually remember thinking, and I'm giving an exact quote, "the fuck is this?"
Antz was definitely superior.

It's so true. Wall-E is without a doubt my favourite, however I really enjoyed all of their movies.

If I had to rank them... probably Wall-E, The Incredibles, Monster's Inc, Toy Story, and then just the rest pretty evenly with perhaps a 9/10, except for A Bug's Life, which for some reason I didn't like as much, and would probably only give 7 or 8/10.

It was an ok movie. But they have done way better then that. I mean the concept was good, just not done very well.
