Default Disney vs Pixar Bracket, or How the Internet destroyed itself...

Don't try this with people you actually know, this has caused more than one blood feud I'm sure.



I tried but I couldn't do it...

Yikes. Incredible and Wall-E are my two favourite Pixar movies. I’m done even before I started.

Yeah, this actually is a incredibly difficult bracket.

final four: Lion King, Little Mermaid, Toy Story, Wall-E.

Winner: Lion King

Every other opinion is wrong.

That and the Beauty and the Beast vs Nightmare Before Christmas matchups are some first round travesties. Here's mine:



Finding Nemo going out in round 1 has to be a surprise to many. Tangled's section was the softest path, for me. There were definitely some matchups I could have gone either way on and could have been persuaded otherwise. Also I've never seen Coco, Cars 2 or The Good Dinosaur, so those ones were sort of treated as byes.

Lion King wins it all easily.
The rest is difficult

On that bracket, the biggest threats for Disney are Lion King, Aladdin, Nightmare and BATB. The biggest threats for Pixar are Up, Toy Story, Incredibles and Wall-E.

Here's the question: is there a reason that Emperor's New Groove is nowhere to be seen? Is it because it would ruin everyone's bracket? It'd be the clear dark horse candidate of the whole thing.

I haven't seen a few of the films in the bracket but this wasn't too hard for me.

Inside Out over Moana in the final. Toughest choice was Inside Out vs Wall-E which are two of my favourite films.

My wife just did it to and ended up with Moana over Up.

No Emperor's new groove? That movie is still must watch to me.

My real final two are probably Lilo & Stitch and The Incredibles, and Emperor's New Groove should be in there, maybe instead of The Princess and the Frog.

Losers bracket (the worst movies)

Final four: Tarzan, Hercules, Up, Inside Out (skipping the ones I haven't seen, which is most of the newer ones).

Winner (loser): Hercules.

Both Hercules and Up signified the end of golden ages for the companies, where they ended a streak of near flawless movies. I know Up is pretty beloved, but I always thought it was really dull and obnoxiously sentimental.

You or your kids got old.

Up and Inside Out are pretty awesome.

Final four for me was:
Zootopia over Lion King, Ratatouille over UP, and Ratatouille for the championship.

Only one that was really hard for me was seeing Nightmare lose out in the second round. If it was in that weak-ass Lion King bracket it would have easily made it to the final four.

Glad there isn't a Studio Ghibli bracket though, that would be tougher than any of these.

I think my Final Four would be Lilo & Stitch vs Zootopia and Up vs Wall-E

Final 2 would be Zootopia vs Wall-E

Wall-E would take it in the end.

Ended up with The Lion King vs. Up. Some of them I hadn’t seen but I let my kids pick and I got overruling rights. They can pick their own damn brackets. Can’t pick a winner between the two.
