These were the CORRECT results, Disney be damned.

FTR, I liked FMF whenI went to see it. One of a few bright spots in a time when things were lousy for me.

Road to El Dorado played it quite close. It looks like it could be an alright kind of movie and not just because of how fit Chel is :)

Up deserved the win.

Toy Story 1 & 2 owe their 100% ratings to late 90's CGI jerkoffing, they would never get those scores today.

See also: the laughable 93% rating for Antz

You need to remedy that, Sharpish?

It's a solid film, The only person who doesn't think so is that prick Cole Smithey (who is only famous due to coming out of the same woman as Chris-Chan) Damn him, I say!

Toy Story 3 is a decent movie, but I've always felt like it was mostly a rehash of the second movie's themes. The biggest difference is that the emotional moments in TS3 are built around nostalgia for the Toy Story series itself. If you love the first two movies or grew up with them then those scenes will hit you pretty hard, but I doubt TS3 would impress anyone who doesn't already love the series.

While I'm gutted for TNBC, It's a hard stretch to fight a critically lauded film, which had Elton pour out the most overrated of his output and is being remade Live-Action in time for its Silversary!

Semifinals:
(9)Pinocchio
(15)Finding Nemo

(15)Ratatouille
(9)The Tale of the Princess Kaguya

Grand Final
(9)Pinocchio
(15)Ratatouille

With a whopping 99 score on Metacritic, Pinocchio outranks the competition by a good amount, beating second-ranked Spirited Away by 3 points. Fantasia also ranks at fourth; had it gotten past Ratatouille (which won by having more reviews), the final would've had the two oldest movies in the tournament, both from 1940; "Golden Age dominance" is what I would've given to such a conclusion.

9 and 15-seeds also do very well in the tournament; three of each of them make it to the division final, and two of each get out of their division. The final itself has a 9-seed against a 15.

I'll do the Metacritic user scores later.
