From Finding Nemo, to Monsters, Inc, here are the 10 best Disney Pixar moments EVER

DISNEY is the gift that just keeps on giving.

For almost a century, the studio has been providing us with hilarious and heartwarming films and even today they never disappoint.

While we can't fault their cartoon classics, teaming up with animation company Pixar gave Disney a whole new dimension.

Here, we look at the top 10 Disney Pixar moments.

Toy Story 3

The ultimate story of good versus evil as Woody, Buzz and co discover the true intentions of the villainous Lotso at the Sunnyside nursery.

A Bug's Life

Filmland wouldn’t be the same without its villains and Hopper (“It’s a bug-eat-bug world”) is one we love to hate. Luckily our hero Flik saves the day.

The Incredibles

The “no capes” scene is one of Pixar’s smartest – and a reminder to all budding superheroes on the perils of loose-fitting costumes.

Brave

Princess Merida v Mor’du is the best man (or in this case woman) versus bear sequence until Leo DiCaprio wrestled a grizzly in The Revenant.

Up

It seems nothing can lift widower Carl from the loss of his childhood sweetheart Ellie, until wilderness explorer Carl arrives to save the day.

Finding Nemo

There’s comedy and tension as our favourite clown fish is held prisoner in a dentist’s aquarium and a brilliant take on The Great Escape ensues.

Ratatouille

More memorable scenes than you can shake a breadstick at teamed with fast and furious rat chases put it up there with the Pixar greats.

Wall-E

The scene where Wall-e, Eve and an extinguisher dance through outer space is reminiscent of Peter Pan and Wendy dancing in the forest.

Inside Out

An emotional roller coaster and so different from its Pixar predecessors. It teaches children and adults alike very important lessons.

Monsters, Inc.

When Sully meets Boo it turns everything we thought we knew about things that go bump in the night on its head.

Did you know...

• The yellow Pizza Planet delivery truck that played a key role in the original Toy Story has featured in every Pixar movie since – except for The Incredibles. It’s probably easiest to spot in A Bug’s Life and Monsters, Inc., so keep your eyes peeled.

• In a scene in Toy Story 3, there’s a sticker of a very famous fish on Andy’s toy dresser. See if you can find Nemo.

• You can’t discuss Pixar trivia without mentioning A113. The mysterious code has been popping up in Pixar films for more than a decade and is an inside joke in Filmland. In fact, ‘A113’ is the classroom at the California Institute of Arts where the first generation of animators studied.

• The Luxo ball has a long history with Pixar. It appeared with the iconic lamp in the first-ever short Luxo Jr. Since then it has featured in many scenes including when Buzz believes he can fly in Toy Story.

• If you like your movie trivia, you’ll love the programme dedicated to Pixar’s greatest moments. Don’t miss it on the Sky Cinema Disney-Pixar channel.
