Top 10 Disney Pixar Films

Disney are giants of western animation right? Maybe Kings and so they have their prince Pixar to also cover the pace and pick up any slack and to grab any further earnings and money Disney possibly can because they love moneh! 
10: Ratatouille 
This is easily the most underrated pixar movie. It is funny, the animation of Paris is gorgeous, the characters are memorable, and it really sucks you into the environment. I only recently seen this too.

9: Cars
Most people don't have the attitude to appreciate cars for what it really is about, you can say all you want about its imperfections (granted its not the best) but cars delivers. Character development is obviously present and noticeable, funny scenes, nice race sequences and a variety of characters is what made me love this movie as a kid.

8: The Good Dinosaur
This is a way too underrated movie. The story and animation are beautiful and I personally love it. It teaches kids how to overcome their fears and how their is beauty in things they never would have guessed before! Along with some humor that adults would enjoy too!

7: The Incredibles
The Incredibles is a wonderful adventure that provides the perfect combination of the best of superhero movies, along with family comedy. It's hilarious to see two superheroes fight like husband and wife!

6: Toy Story 3
I grew up with toy story and the third one delivered! Great plot and very emotional it did not miss a step in teaching us about the bond between kids and their beloved toys.

5: WALL-E
A powerful, beautiful film. You've gotta love how Pixar can make love blossom without words. Wall-E is likeable and sweet, an amazing character. Wall E and EVE are so cute! 

4: Finding Nemo
A wonderful, hilarious film that is definitely a personal favorite. I still occasionally like to shout "Mine! " like a seagull when grabbing something.

3: Toy Story 2
Toy Story is like the original Star Wars movie because this movie is the Empire Strikes Back of the trilogy. It's so great I can't even fit all of its greatness into this comment. The theme about everything coming to an end and whether we should accept it sooner or wait it out is a very mature dilemma and probably the best in the pixar movies. The visuals in the movie are purely stunning. The airport scene, Al's Toy Barn, and the scene where Woody gets restored are imprinted in my mind forever and they could be a short on their own. Jesse's back story and song always makes me cry. I love this one so much. 

2: A Bugs Life
The intriguing plot, the well-developed characters, the visuals. They're all amazing. The plot is so dark and light-hearted at the same time. One point you see insects dancing, the next you see them being fed to birds. I'd love a sequel, I love this movie.

1: Toy Story
The best seriously what other one could be number one? This gave Pixar their big break, It has a great story, amazing animation and memorable characters. I also really love the songs and overall i really love this film. First disney pixar film i have ever seen and it's my all time fave from them. 

Honourable Mentions
Brave, Toy Story 4 & Coco

Random Ramblin's 40 - Are You Watching Facebook Man!?

Hello everyone, back so soon? I know what's going on?
THIS IS MY 300TH POST!

Life
Been having car problems after problems after problems so annoying and frustrating, how is it possible to live life without any stresses or worries when cars keep haemorrhaging money out of me. 

Besides car worries and the rant just below this, it's not all been all gloomy in my recent times. I went away with the Mrs to Quay West and we had a lush time, I highly recommend everyone go to Quay West and Ceredigion and Aberaeron also. 

I went with the Mrs to watch NXT UK Live in Cardiff, we went to the takeover live ppv show and the Sunday tv tapings and we thoroughly enjoyed. It was so amazing, sure Sunday was longer and it was so uncomfortable seating wise compared to the night before. Saturday we was on top in the middle of the tiered seating which gave us a fantastic view and we was comfy and it was so great. Sunday we sat 10 rows from the ring which was amazing too but the seats were so cramped and uncomfy it did my head in and has messed up my knee as it still hurts now. All in all we enjoyed so much we can't wait to do it again if they come back to Cardiff. The crowd was amazing and the chants were epic! P.s. The title of this post was a chant.

I recently also won a massive teddy from a local arcade and honestly it's huge it's bloody 6ft for christ sake haha. I gave it to my Mrs and it was bloody insane everyone was looking at me and they looked so amazed and jealous haha. It was stuck in a machine where you hold a button and release when the scissors gets to the string holding the bear and you release and it cuts it and it took me 2 goes which is £3 as it was £1 a go so three goes and i had it. I told her i'm gonna win that! I did! Call me Arcade King!

MUSIC
Taylor's new album is out and i like a few songs, such as; Lover, Me!, Paper Rings, I forgot that you existed, Cornelia St and Cruel Summer.

Slipknot's new album is out too and from this new album We Are Not Your Kind i love the following songs; Unsainted, Birth Of The Cruel, Nero Forte, Spiders, Critical Darling, Solway Faith, Red Flag and Orphan.

TOOL ARE BACK!
(I've not listened to their album Fear Inoculum as of writing)

A note on music: Music, it's starts with a sound, add in some repetition and the brain will think it's a song or it will mold it into a song so to speak. Music is amazing it can help people relearn how to speak, help people with movement disabilities move more, music can act like a drug aswell and has a deep connection to our feelings. Music itself is culturally universal and as far as we are aware other primates don't really get the same feeling of beats like we do it's been said. All music starts as air before we hear it, repeated sound creates rhythm, it all goes in through our ear processed via our brains and that is where we make it out and develop a love or a dislike to music and some music in general really. Back in 2009 scientists and the world discovered an animal that would move along to the music in time even when the track was sped up or down and more animals have been discovered to be able to do this since that wonderful Cockatoo named Snowball almost ten years ago. Ronin a sea lion in California is the first non human mammal confirmed to really get grooving with Earth Wind and Fire in a Boogie Wonderland. When sounds repeat fast enough we hear it as a pitch and multiple pitches create harmony. Octaves are pitches with double or half the frequency of another. Major scale is associated with happy feelings and minor meaning the opposite but of course this is not universal because someone in another country could experience the opposite where the minor is happy and major is sad.

Games
I want to play Gears 5 and Man Of Medan. Fortnite is going mental but i am not playing it so much now a days. Been playing Lego Undercover at the moment, it's alright like. Restarted Animal Crossing New Leaf as things fucked up so i can't wait to get back into that.

A Different Shade Of Green (original music lyrics)

We're burning all the beauty, destroying all the green, don't they even know, how much they mean to you and me, why cant we in this modern day and age come up with different ways to leave our marks, we stray far away from evolutionary needs, its time we stop and take a look at ourselves and the planets embrace, lets all stand together now,

Look at all the trees, why cant you tell me, why, are we destroying all the greeeen, there's different shades of green, one for every day, that shows me, how much, you mean to me.

The Amazon is being destroyed, what's a rain-forest without any rain, now, whats a forest without the beautiful landscape, can we even bless the rain down the Amazon, where smoke and fire and greed of men run wild,

Look at all the trees, why cant you tell me, why, are we destroying all the greeeen, there's different shades of green, one for every day, that shows me, how much, you mean to me.

If you take a breath in, you can surely tell, that you're alive and breathing, well, without any trees we wont be breathing well, well, we won't be breathing all to well, not too well,

We need all the trees, why can you tell me, why, are we destroying all the greeeen, there's different shades of green, one for every day, that shows me, how much, I see, you mean to me.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I wrote this looking out of a window on the train last Saturday. I seen so many trees and one area had all sorts of shades of green so it stuck in my head and I was writing this while looking at my woman and thinking about the Amazon fire and how greedy a race we are.
