What Disney/Pixar cartoons do you consider a comedy and which for a drama?

JEDI

JEDI

(idea came From the Martian winning best comedy/musical.)

Disney film list:

I think all the Pixar cartoons are in the comedy category.

Disney:
Drama: snow white, Cinderrella, Frozen, Fantasia, bambi, Pocahontas, alladin, The Little Mermaid, Lady and the Tramp, Big Hero 6
comedy: Winnie the Pooh, Chicken Little, Wreck-It Ralph, dumbo, Alice in Wonderland, Lilo & Stitch

Inside Out was way funnier than Martian. If you're looking at it from the standpoint of best comedy (not necessarily movie), Inside Out should have won.

But I'm not going to lose any sleep over it.
 
I really struggle to call Wall-E and Up comedy's. Wall-E in particular was a very deep movie with very little humor.

I thought that was a running joke... not an actual event that happened.

Not that I care that much about such things, but that's still really dumb. If we judge comedies by how much laughing I did, the Martian is pretty low on the list. I chuckled during Donald Glover scenes, and when Matt Damon first started growing stuff. Good movie, not a comedy. I think I laughed more in Star Wars and that's very much not a comedy.

Inside Out absolutely should have won. It was hilarious
 
Alladin isn't comedy?

Where is Lion King on the list?

I think all of the Pixar's can be considered comedy to some degree, with the exception of Wall-E and Up. I haven't seen Inside Out

Inside Out is probably their best movie to date in *really* understanding and relating emotions and family. There are several moments in there that really punch you in the feels. But it's still counterbalanced with comedic relief. I mean they casted Lewis Black for the voiceover of "Anger"...and he really brings some of those gut punches back to the funny side of things.

It's definitely worth watching and hits a lot of buttons without being as ambitious as Wall-E.

Amen to this.

I have daughter with some emotional/mental health issues and Inside Out completely nailed it and ACTUALLY helped me understand it much better. It sounds crazy, but it just hit every nail on the head.

Ditto. My daughter has a lot of issues and it really did sort of spell some things out. Top it off...we recently moved away from family and friends to another state and the crumbling islands really hit me hard.

WTF, I just don't get that. I am seriously 😵. I read the book, OK, over the summer. I haven't seen the movie yet, but there wasn't much to laugh about in the book. To think of the movie as a comedy just seems outrageous. I will see it when the library provides it, maybe a couple months.

I can see it. Most of the interaction between Damon and the camera (the video diary stuff) is pretty much all jokes.

I have wondered if the LOTR stuff was in the book or just thrown in there because of Sean Bean though?
 
It was in the book.

Honestly I like the movie better than the book. It has a better ending, and I liked less disasters. All the disasters in the book got very predictable.

Matt Damon was the best space pirate since Firefly.

Arrrr, but I'm a fan of Pirates to begin with.
