Championship Match of Jessi's Fifth Annual March Madness: Animated Feature

at 03/29/13 11:35AM

Here we are guys! The last round to determine who we, the people of Pleonast, find to be the most worthy of being called Best Animated Feature!

We started with 64, there are only 2 left.

And as you know, two films enter, one film leaves.

The final two in the match up are on either ends of the spectrum in my opinion. One is ridiculous and random and the other is a fairytale romance. I'm not really surprised but the two, but I am interested to see who comes out on top.
I have learned not to predict you crazy people.

So here they are: Your final two!

Let's Go!!!

Final Match up:

My heart may be broken within me.

I will have to come back. I can see which way the wind is blowing, but I have to ponder this.

by wifelet at 03/29/13 2:22PM
Well, I never saw The Emperor's New Groove so Beauty and the Beast. And I love Beauty and the Beast anyway :)

Emperor's New Groove!

I know I'm the black sheep (or llama) of this group, but hear me out:
B&TB was a classic film of my childhood. I wore out our VHS copy. Color, music, excitement, happy ending! It's a GREAT film! By all accounts, it should win.

Which is why I choose The Groove. A loveable little-known film that NEVER gets old. Very quotable, very memorable, but little-known. The fact that it made it to the final round of Jessi's Fifth Annual March Madness is testimony enough that it's a good film. Colorful, witty, and down-right funny. This is why my vote is for the underdog (or under-llama, if you prefer).

i feel your pain. My earthly strength has departed (but that might be due to food poisoning) and I choose...

Beauty and the Beast.

Matt votes for B&B.

Emperor's New Groove. Such a unique movie, I don't think Disney will ever capture it again.

by aaron_nic at 03/29/13 10:10PM
I usually like ridiculous and random and I vaguely remember ENG being funny but I only saw it once a LONG time ago. I do love BB's songs, but I feel my vote would be uninformed, so I'll let the informed ones decide this time. Makes me want to watch ENG soon though.

by kendrad at 03/30/13 7:24PM
were i with a group of friends eating pizza late at night and someone asked if we should put it "emperor's new groove" or "beauty and the beast", i would choose "emperor's new groove". like my wife, i wore out our copy of "beauty and the beast" because it is such a fantastic movie in every respect...but "emperor's new groove" is almost right up there with "monty python and the holy grail" for sheer randomness and hilarity...and that doesn't happen often.

by tu_madre at 03/30/13 8:20PM
Fine. FINE!!! Beauty and the Beast. Huff. Sigh.

The Final Four of Jessi's Fifth Annual March Madness: Animated Feature Films

at 03/25/13 11:55AM

64 films are now down to 4.

I just really don't know what expect anymore. All four of these are STRONG contenders to take the whole thing. Oh, and I have no idea which one to pick for the bottom match up. There will be stress involved for me to pick...

So for those of you who would like to participate, I will post the fourth round: 2 match-ups, and you all can vote in each match-up to see who goes to the next round!
Even if you aren't on my friend's list and happen upon this page, go ahead, give me your thoughts on the matter.
You can vote for all the match-ups or just a few, it doesn't matter.
**PS: For those who have yet to do this, just copy/paste the list and delete the one you don't want. Easier than scrolling up and down.

Don't forget to comment on those shows that lost the last round.

Let's Go!!!

Top Half:
1. Finding Nemo vs. The Emperor's New Groove

Bottom Half:
1. Toy Story vs. Beauty and the Beast

I don't separate the two. In the US, implicitly, Animated = children's. That has been broken badly of late. Too, if it's given a PG rating, I assume it's targeted at kids. I just don't like how far "parental guidance necessary" has degraded.

That being said, I stand by my remarks above - haven't been a fan of the Toy Story franchise for years.

Now that this has come down to a battle of hand drawn vs. computer animation, I can no longer stand aside.

(I love many cg movies and don't really have a problem with them, I just like hand drawn better, and I hated it when Disney closed that age-old studio and no one seemed to care)

The Elite Eight of Jessi's Fifth Annual March Madness: Animated Feature Films

at 03/18/13 11:53AM

64 features are now down to 8.

I am really down right shocked by what is going on with this bracket! I would not have imagined that Sword in the Stone would be the standing 8. Very interesting.

There were two match ups that were decided by one vote. Finding Nemo just won by a tiny fin over Monsters, Inc. and Up flew slightly higher than How To Train Your Dragon. (I'm really mad at myself at some of these match ups.)

Ok, anyway, for those of you who would like to participate, I will post the fourth round: 4 match-ups, and you all can vote in each match-up to see who goes to the next round!
Even if you aren't on my friend's list and happen upon this page, go ahead, give me your thoughts on the matter.

by chickadee at 03/19/13 1:10AM
I am having the worst case of the mommy brain I've ever experienced thus far....this whole time every time I've seen "Sword in the Stone" in my head I was thinking "The Black Cauldron". And I made this bracket! And I LOOOOOVE Sword in the Stone. As a kid, that might have been one of my most watched video tapes.
Good grief. *hangs head in shame*

by whipsmile at 03/19/13 10:23AM
So did you mean to have The Black Cauldron at the beginning of this? Was it suppossed to be The Black Cauldron the whole time?

by mister_c at 03/19/13 12:01PM
No, not at all. It was meant to be Sword. You know how often we/I used to watch that. I don't even think Cauldron was ever in it. I don't know WHAT I was thinking. Seriously weird moment for me right now. :-/

by whipsmile at 03/19/13 1:02PM

1. Toy Story (This is so hard--Aladdin hit right when I was 7/8, I think. I had Aladdin and Jasmine barbies. I had the Aladdin game for my Sega Game Gear. And multiple other things. I waited with bated breath for the the follow up movies, where Aladdin and Jasmine would be married at at last. But today, Toy Story wins, because I also love it so, so much.
2. Beauty and the Beast--This also hurt. A lot. I love Up.

Sweet Sixteen of Jessi's 5th Annual March Madness: Animated Feature Films

at 03/12/13 12:50PM

There were some complete blow outs and then there were some very, very tight races. And the Classics came out to PLAY! I did not expect some of these results, like Sword in the Stone beating out WALL-E, Lady and the Tramp beating out Nighmare Before Christmas, The Jungle Book winning over Cars and Peter Pan beating out Mulan after a tie breaker. (That one was less surprising but, like I said, kudos to the Classics for representin'!)

As for blow outs, well, apparently Hercules could get through his 12 labours, but he couldn't make it past Toy Story with a result of 25 to 1. Aladdin stole away with a hefty win over Anastasia and Emperor's New Groove danced easily into the third round with a 23 to 2 victory over Lilo and Stitch.

So here we go, your Sweet Sixteen. And guys, it didn't get any easier.

So for those of you who would like to participate, I will post the second round: 8 match-ups, and you all can vote in each match-up to see who goes to the next round!
Even if you aren't on my friend's list and happen upon this page, go ahead, give me your thoughts on the matter.

2. Lady and the Tramp vs. Toy Story
3. How To Train Your Dragon vs. Up
4. Sleeping Beauty vs. Beauty and the Beast

There were some complete blow outs and then there were some very, very tight races. Two match ups were down to one vote and we had to say goodbye to some quality films.

You can vote for all the match-ups or just a few, it doesn't matter.

1. The Little Mermaid vs. Finding Nemo (the under water match-up)
2. Monsters, Inc.
4. Peter Pan
7. The Many Adventure of Winnie the Pooh
8. The Lion King

Bottom Half:
1. Aladdin
2. I'm going to leave it up to the others. I don't feel strongly enough to sway the votes. I always go for the cartoons rather than Pixar bc of the songs in Disney movies. I typed in Cars bc I really like it (and my 3 year old is obsessed with it) but then The Bare Necessities song popped in my head and I couldn't bring myself to vote TJB out.
3. (I'll probably get in trouble for this one but I never liked TNBC) Lady and the Tramp
4. Toy Story (another Pixar win...I'm surprising myself)
5. the Fox and The Hound
6. Up
8. Beauty and the Beast (the songs definitely won out this time)
I'm curious what the movies are that lost/won by one vote

Ok I'm back for the painful part! After contemplating I have decided that this bracket is the hardest in all the years of jessi's march madness. There are some really tough match ups and some sad losses. Much is at stake, with that being said,
Upper bracket....
7. Winnie the pooh, I have to go classic Disney here it is a work of art and still makes me think all is right with the world. Miline and Disney make a wonderful winning combo.
8. The lion king, I was clearly tempted to go classic Disney on this as well but the songs, and deeper themes of the story of the lion king was just too much to resist. However it pains me greatly to see Cinderella go from my choices so if she ends up winning overall I would not be disappointed.

Lower bracket
8. This is the hardest match up ever. I love the Tangled story more but greatly appreciate the b and b story. Not to mention the wonderful songs, the strides it made in cartoons ( who can forget as a young girl my reaction as they swept across the ball room?). But when it is said and done, I asked Emma, she said rapunzel was her favorite so my vote is......Tangled!

Second Round of Jessi's 5th Annual March Madness: Animated Feature Films
at 03/06/13 9:52AM
There were some complete blow outs and then there were some very, very tight races. Two match ups were down to one vote and we had to say goodbye to some quality films.

There weren't any real shockers but there are some very diverse tastes in this group of voters.

So here we go, round two. And guys, it got hard.

So for those of you who would like to participate, I will post the second round: 16 match-ups, and you all can vote in each match-up to see who goes to the next round!
Even if you aren't on my friend's list and happen upon this page, go ahead, give me your thoughts on the matter.
You can vote for all the match-ups or just a few, it doesn't matter.
**PS: For those who have yet to do this, just copy/paste the list and delete the one you don't want. Easier than scrolling up and down.

Here we go!

1. Finding Nemo (the under water match-up)
2. Monsters, Inc.
