Yeah, how would Toy Story or Nemo be considered weak? The only thing those films have weaknesses in would be having weaknesses.

In my opinion UP and Brave are the only ones that don't feel PixarThe Incredibles is very Pixar-y lol Love the opening to UP though. Tear up every time.
The Incredibles are Pixar, without a doubt, but in the context of marketing and exposure, I tend to view that movie as being somewhat outside the "mainstream". Which is a shame considering the popularity of super heroes in film lately.

Then they'll probably still end up announcing something that still isn't 100% solid.

I would be SHOCKED if they went with an Incredibles attraction ... I mean I would love it but if I am being honest it's not the merchandising juggernaut that Cars, Toy Story, or even to a lesser extent Monster Inc are. That move would be totally out of the norm for TDO ... so maybe "shock" would be an understatement.
you can pretty much merchandise anything...i am sure they can sell tons of incredible stuff

Let me explain. Before Disney bought Marvel, they licensed various Disney and Pixar properties to a publisher called Boom! Studios. Among them was The Incredibles, written by Landry Walker and Mark Waid (Best known for his run on Flash as well as the DC classic miniseries Kingdom Come). Set after the movie, the comic series dealt with the superban being lifted and consequently, a bunch of supervillains crawling out of the woodwork after mostly sticking to the shadows over the years. Running for a four issue miniseries and a 16 issue ongoing, it introduced new villains, repurposed one from the original scripts for the movie (Xerek), and told a longform story that ended up being cut short because when Disney bought Marvel, it didn't take them long to take all the Pixar stuff back.
The series ended on a cliffhanger where Xerek and the supervillains succeeded in a mind control plot to turn Metroville against the superheroes and the Incredibles being forced to leave town. The four issue finale arc that would have resolved this was never published.

For a while, Marvel was reprinting the Pixar and Muppet stuff in Magazine format collecting full arcs together and rotating between different properties, but they gave up due to low sales and only the first two Incredibles storylines were put out in that format. The Muppet Show Comic storyline "The Four Seasons", which also went unpublished at Boom from DIsney taking the licenses back, did finally see the light of day under Marvel, so there's a chance something might emerge eventually.

Yes I agree BUT Cars merch doesn't seem to go away so that's kinda where I see the distinction.

I didn't say anything about Cars. I only said that the fish in Nemo don't talk.

The fact that cars, fish or bugs talk doesn't bother me. It is the inconsistency in Up that bothers me. You don't see an occasional dog driving a bulldozer at the beginning of the film. It isn't until the 3rd act that things get really out of whack. In the other films, the fish, cars, and bugs talk from the beginning. That is the universe that the film is based in. Up breaks it's own rules.
good point
i do think star wars will come just not until the first movie rolls out....plus the suits are probably thinking got ride already, already do star wars weekends..im guessing by 2020

I'd give up my first born for a star wars land.
Okay, not really. But I do agree that they shouldn't homogenize the attractions between the parks so that there are no unique qualities to either of them. I enjoyed cars, but I think there could be a lot more done with this, if the space allowed, than Cars Land 2.0

Aside from Toy Story, I think it's one of the best Pixar films as far as the writing goes. It's very engaging.
