The worst crime of The Good Dinosaur, which went through several incarnations and a lot of behind-the-scenes drama as Pixar tried to figure out what do with its big dino film, isn’t the actual quality of the story or animation. Our collective staff ranking, averaged from individual ranked lists, addresses which Pixar films we feel are most exciting, most ambitious, and most moving - the ones that most changed our perspectives on what animation and all-ages storytelling can do. So we’ve laid out which Pixar movies we think new fans (or new parents) should prioritize, or that existing fans might want to revisit or reassess.

Pixar movies profoundly changed American studio animation, ushering in the age of computer-animated features and raising the bar on animated storytelling. Pixar Animation Studios’ drive for innovation has always been one of its biggest motivating forces.
