| Obviously Pixar brings out people's strong tastes.  They're very specific movies with very specific voices; it's no wonder one over another appeals to different people.  To me, Brad Bird's movies have never touched me as emotionally as Stanton's.  It's a clear, clear winner.  While I enjoy Ratatouille, Incredibles, and Giant, I have to admit: each of them leaves me a little bit cold.*  None of Stanton's ever have.  My top Pixar choices would be:
 1: Finding Nemo/Wall-E (tie)
 2: Toy Story 2 (if you think it's bad, maybe take another look, there's a lot of heart.)
 3: Toy Story
 4: Ratatouille
 5: Incredibles
 6: Monster's Inc
 7: Cars
 8: Bug's Life
 
 I really think the list is going to vary highly for everyone.
 
 *cold in comparison with the higher films on my list.  Certainly they kick the asses of most films being made these days.
