In 2006, Disney conquered the animation market by buying Pixar Studios, an awards season heavy-hitter<\/a>\u00a0that’s made some of the greatest modern animated movies in recent cinematic history. Pixar characters really run the gamut from confused fish to friendly monsters to embodiments of feelings, but here are some of the very best.<\/p>\n

1. Marlin<\/p>\n

In “Finding Nemo,”\u00a0Albert Brooks’ overprotective clownfish Marlin just wants to find his missing son, and he’ll stop at nothing to track the young fish down.<\/p>\n

2. Dory<\/p>\n

Marlin gets some truly unexpected help during his journey to find Nemo from Dory, a regal blue tang with short-term memory problems who’s voiced by Ellen DeGeneres.<\/p>\n

3. Nemo<\/p>\n

The missing fish himself, Alexander Gould’s Nemo, tries to show off during a field trip that’s too close to a diving spot … only to end up captive in a dentist’s office.<\/p>\n

4. Edna Mode<\/p>\n

Inspired by legendary Hollywood costume designer Edith Head, Edna Mode of “The Incredibles” is an austere, brilliant fashion maven with a knack for designing superhero costumes who’s voiced by the film’s writer and director Brad Bird.<\/p>\n

5. Mike Wazowski<\/p>\n

Armed with a short green body, one eye, and great comedic timing, scare factory employee Mike Wazowski (the incomparable Billy Crystal) from “Monsters Inc.” ends up in quite a pickle thanks to his best friend Sulley.<\/p>\n

6. James P. Sullivan<\/p>\n

Speaking of Sulley, James P. “Sulley” Sullivan \u2014 who’s voiced by John Goodman \u2014 is a massive blue monster who easily frightens children but is a secretly kind, good-hearted guy.<\/p>\n

7. Boo<\/p>\n

Mary Gibbs, a child at the time, provides the voice of Boo in “Monsters Inc.,” a young girl who accidentally gets lost in the monster world and must be protected by Sulley and Mike.<\/p>\n

8. Randall Boggs<\/p>\n

The villain of “Monsters Inc.” (well, one of them) is the slimy, arrogant Randall Boggs, Steve Buscemi’s monster who can blend into surfaces like a chameleon.<\/p>\n

9. Roz<\/p>\n

The funniest character in “Monsters Inc.,”\u00a0bar none, is Roz, a scare floor administrator who speaks in a drawling monotone and is voiced by Bob Peterson.<\/p>\n

10. Woody<\/p>\n

The “Toy Story” franchise launches with Sheriff Woody, a cowboy toy who declares “there’s a snake in my boot!” if you pull his string and is voiced by Tom Hanks.<\/p>\n

11. Buzz Lightyear<\/p>\n

During the first-ever “Toy Story” film, Woody finds his place in his kid’s life threatened by newcomer Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), who believes he’s a real astronaut, not a toy.<\/p>\n

12. Jessie<\/p>\n

Joan Cusack’s enthusiastic, emotionally complex cowgirl, introduced in “Toy Story 2,”\u00a0is like Woody’s sister, strikes up a romance with Buzz, and got her own song \u2014 courtesy of Taylor Swift \u2014 in “Toy Story 5.”<\/p>\n

13. Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head<\/p>\n

Don Rickles and Estelle Harris are rarely ever apart in the “Toy Story” films as Mr. & Mrs. Potato Head, but when they\u00a0do split up, it’s to stage a mission that could save the day.<\/p>\n

14. Slinky Dog<\/p>\n

Before Jim Varney passed away in 2000, he voiced a slinky dog in the “Toy Story” films; after his death, Blake Clark took over as the southern-fried Dachshund toy.<\/p>\n

15. Rex<\/p>\n

Nobody, truly, could embody a frightened and anxious Tyrannosaurus rex toy in the “Toy Story” movies like Wallace Shawn, one of the funniest actors alive.<\/p>\n

16. Hamm<\/p>\n

Another member of the “Toy Story” gang is the piggy bank, Hamm, voiced by Pixar regular\u00a0John Ratzenberger.<\/p>\n

17. Flik<\/p>\n

In “A Bug’s Life,” the protagonist, Flik \u2014 who’s voiced by Dave Foley \u2014 is a nervous, bumbling, but brilliant inventor who wants to improve life in the colony.<\/p>\n

18. Princess Atta<\/p>\n

As Flik hopes to make life in the colony in “A Bug’s Life” even better, Princess Atta (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) prepares to take her elderly mother’s throne when the Queen dies.<\/p>\n

19. Bob Parr<\/p>\n

In “The Incredibles,” the titular superhero family is led by Craig T. Nelson’s Bob Parr, also known as Mr. Incredible, who possesses super-strength and can endure almost anything<\/p>\n

20. Helen Parr<\/p>\n

Bob’s wife in “The Incredibles,”\u00a0Holly Hunter’s Helen Parr, is no less powerful; under the moniker Elastigirl, Helen can stretch herself to absurd lengths. (Pretty good metaphor for motherhood, actually.)<\/p>\n

21. Violet Parr<\/p>\n

In the Parr family in “The Incredibles,” even the kids have superpowers \u2014 including eldest daughter Violet (Sarah Vowell), who can create force fields and also turn invisible.<\/p>\n

22. Dashiell Parr<\/p>\n

Simply nicknamed Dash, Spencer Fox’s middle child Dashiell Parr in “The Incredibles” can \u2014 you guessed it \u2014 run super fast.<\/p>\n

23. Jack-Jack Parr<\/p>\n

Played by both\u00a0Eli Fucile and Maeve Andrews in “The Incredibles,” baby Jack-Jack is the youngest family member in “The Incredibles,” and he shows off a surprisingly wide array of powers under duress.<\/p>\n

24. Frozone<\/p>\n

Bob still has a handful of superhero friends in “The Incredibles,” and the most prominent is Lucius Best, Samuel L. Jackson’s icy superhuman Frozone.<\/p>\n

25. Syndrome<\/p>\n

In the first “Incredibles” film, the family fights Jason Lee’s Syndrome, whose given name is Buddy Pine and who briefly tried to copy Mr. Incredible as an obsessed fan by calling himself “IncrediBoy.”<\/p>\n

26. Lightning McQueen<\/p>\n

Vehicles come to life in “Cars,” and they’re led by Lightning McQueen, a race car voiced by Owen Wilson.<\/p>\n

27. Doc Hudson<\/p>\n

In the first “Cars” film, beloved Hollywood star Paul Newman voices Doc Hudson, a stalwart old Hudson Hornet.<\/p>\n

28.\u00a0Carl Fredricksen<\/p>\n

“Up” is one of Pixar’s most emotional films (which is saying something), which is funny when you consider that it’s centered around the gruff, misanthropic old man Carl Fredricksen (Ed Asner).<\/p>\n

29. Russell\u00a0<\/p>\n

Carl’s life in “Up” is thrown into disarray when he meets Wilderness Explorer Russell (Jordan Nagai), who tries to earn a badge for “assisting the elderly” before the two end up on an epic adventure together.<\/p>\n

30. Charles Muntz<\/p>\n

Voiced by Christopher plummer, legendary explorer Charles Muntz is the antagonist of “Up,” betraying both Carl and Russell because, frankly, he’s just completely insane in his old age.<\/p>\n

31. Dug<\/p>\n

A dog with a collar that allows him to speak to humans, Dug, voiced by Bob Peterson, drops heaters like “I have just met you, and I love you.”<\/p>\n

32. Remy<\/p>\n

A little Parisian rat who dreams of becoming a professional chef, Patton Oswalt’s Remy from “Ratatouille” is one rodent you don’t want to see end up on a trap.<\/p>\n

33. Alfredo Linguini<\/p>\n

In “Ratatouille,”\u00a0Remy achieves his dream of cooking through Alfredo Linguini (Lou Romano), a young and fairly inept garbage boy who starts cooking using the rat’s instructions.<\/p>\n

34. Anton Ego<\/p>\n

At the end of “Ratatouille,” severe restaurant critic Anton Ego, voiced by Peter O’Toole, praises Remy and Linguini’s take on the titular French peasant dish.<\/p>\n

35. WALL-E<\/p>\n

In Pixar’s ode to environmental conservation, the title robot WALL-E (Waste Allocation Load Lifter: Earth-class), who collects trash on our desolate Earth and loves musicals, is voiced by Ben Burtt.<\/p>\n

36. EVE<\/p>\n

Partway through “WALL-E,” the little titular robot is surprised and charmed to meet\u00a0EVE, whose name is an acronym for Extraterrestrial Vegetation Evaluator, comes to Earth to find a tiny surviving plant, and is voiced by Elissa Knight.<\/p>\n

37. Riley Andersen<\/p>\n

Even though we hear from her feelings more than we hear from her, Riley Andersen, voiced in the first “Inside Out” movie by Kaitlyn Dias and in the sequel by Kensington Tallman, endures quite a lot of emotional turmoil.<\/p>\n

38. Joy<\/p>\n

Ironically, some of those emotional troubles Riley faces are caused by the relentlessly, sometimes foolishly optimistic lead emotion Joy. It is, incidentally, impossible to not smile when you hear Amy Poehler voicing this feeling.<\/p>\n

39. Sadness<\/p>\n

Just as Poehler is perfect as Joy, Phyllis Smith, otherwise best known for “The Office,” has the perfect Eeyore-style voice to represent Riley’s misery.<\/p>\n

40. Fear<\/p>\n

“Inside Out” and “Inside Out 2” saw a handful of cast shakeups; in the first film, the frightened Fear is voiced by Bill Hader, with “Veep” veteran Tony Hale taking over for Riley’s second chapter.<\/p>\n

41. Disgust<\/p>\n

Like Fear, Disgust got a makeover for “Inside Out 2.”\u00a0In the first movie, this broccoli-hating snob is voiced by Mindy Kaling, but Liza Lapira steers the disgust ship in the sequel.<\/p>\n

42. Anger<\/p>\n

Again, Anger is\u00a0perfectly cast in the “Inside Out” films; who else expresses pure, unfiltered, and super-loud rage like comedian Lewis Black?<\/p>\n

43. Bing Bong<\/p>\n

In the first “Inside Out” film, Joy and Sadness must journey through Riley’s entire psyche to find a core memory … and along the way, they meet Bing Bong, Riley’s former imaginary friend played by Richard Kind. Anyone who’s seen the movie just started crying just\u00a0thinking about Bing Bong, probably.<\/p>\n

44. Anxiety<\/p>\n

“Inside Out 2” depicts Riley’s burgeoning teenage years, and she gets a gaggle of brand-new emotions … the ringleader of which is Anxiety, beautifully embodied by Maya Hawke.<\/p>\n

45. Ennui<\/p>\n

Every teenager worth their salt knows just how effective bored ennui can be, and “Inside Out 2” really went for it by casting French actress\u00a0Ad\u00e8le Exarchopoulos.<\/p>\n

46. Envy<\/p>\n

Riley also starts feeling intensely jealous of her friends on the hockey team in “Inside Out 2,” which is where Ayo Edebiri’s desperate, hilarious Envy comes into play.<\/p>\n

47. Embarrassment<\/p>\n

The final new emotion depicted in “Inside Out 2” is … mostly silent, and that’s because Paul Walter Hauser “voices” Embarrassment. His main deal is that he zips himself into his own hoodie whenever he feels weird, which is all the time.<\/p>\n

48. Arlo<\/p>\n

The protagonist of “The Good Dinosaur” is Arlo, a tiny, physically weaker dinosaur desperate to prove his worth who’s voiced by Raymond Ochoa (and briefly, Jack McGraw in his younger years).<\/p>\n

49. Spot<\/p>\n

Thankfully, Arlo in “The Good Dinosaur” is aided by Spot, a young caveman (caveboy?) that Arlos’ family keeps as a sort of pet initially.<\/p>\n

50. Butch<\/p>\n

There are some major heavyweights in the cast of “The Good Dinosaur,” and one of them is Sam Elliott, who plays a grizzled Tyrannosaurus rex named Butch.<\/p>\n

51. Miguel<\/p>\n

“Coco” is one of Pixar’s most emotionally heavy films, and it centers around Miguel (Anthony Gonzalez), a young boy who dreams of becoming a famous Mexican musician.<\/p>\n

52.\u00a0Ernesto de la Cruz<\/p>\n

For most of “Coco,”\u00a0Miguel idolizes famous Mexican musician Ernesto de la Cruz, voiced by Benjamin Bratt … until Miguel, alongside the audience, learns a shocking secret.<\/p>\n

53.\u00a0Pap\u00e1 H\u00e9ctor<\/p>\n

The real hero of Coco is Miguel’s long-lost great-great-grandfather,\u00a0H\u00e9ctor (Gael Garc\u00eda Bernal), who Miguel must find in the Land of the Dead.<\/p>\n

54. Ian Lightfoot<\/p>\n

The teenage elf who lacks self confidence and leads “Onward,”\u00a0Tom Holland’s Ian Lightfoot, is still mourning his late father when the movie begins.<\/p>\n

55. Barley Lightfoot<\/p>\n

In stark contrast in “Onward,” we’ve got Ian’s brother Barley, a video game enthusiast and boisterous kid voiced by Chris Pratt.<\/p>\n

56. Joe Gardner<\/p>\n

In the existential Pixar flick “Soul,” musician Joe Gardner, voiced by Jamie Foxx, experiences the afterlife after a horrifying accident on Earth.<\/p>\n

57. 22<\/p>\n

In said afterlife in “Soul,”\u00a0Joe is guided by 22, a sardonic soul who doesn’t think much of Earth and is perfectly portrayed by comedian Tina Fey.<\/p>\n

58.\u00a0Luca Paguro<\/p>\n

In the stunning film “Luca,” the action follows Jacob Tremblay’s protagonist Luca Paguro, a young “sea monster” who resides near the Italian coast and longs to make human connections. (He and Ariel should chat.)<\/p>\n

59.\u00a0Alberto Scorfano<\/p>\n

Luca’s best friend in his eponymous film is Alberto Scorfano, a fellow sea monster boy voiced by Jack Dylan Grazer who’s bold enough to convince Luca to explore the town of Portorosso.<\/p>\n

60.\u00a0Giulia Marcovaldo<\/p>\n

While ashore, Luca and Alberto make friends with Emma Berman’s lonely young girl\u00a0Giulia Marcovaldo, who accepts them exactly as they are.<\/p>\n

61. Meilin “Mei” Lee<\/p>\n

In the fully underrated “Turning Red,”\u00a0Pixar explains the trials and tribulations of puberty through Meilin “Mei”\u00a0Lee (voiced by Rosalie Chiang), a 13-year-old girl who turns into a huge red panda whenever her emotions get really strong.<\/p>\n

62. Izzy Hawthorne<\/p>\n

The granddaughter of Buzz Lightyear’s best friend Alisha (Uzo Aduba), Keke Palmer’s Izzy bravely fights Zurg alongside Chris Evans’ take on the “Toy Story” character in “Lightyear.”<\/p>\n

63. Elio Sol\u00eds<\/p>\n

In the space adventure “Elio,” the titular kid, voiced by\u00a0Yonas Kibreab, is taken onto an alien spaceship after said aliens think he’s the Earth’s ambassador.<\/p>\n

64. Olga Sol\u00eds<\/p>\n

Elio’s disappearance with the aliens in his eponymous film leaves his aunt, Olga (Zoe Salda\u00f1a), bereft, confused, and searching for her beloved nephew.<\/p>\n

65. Ember Lumen<\/p>\n

“Elemental” is a weird but delightful Pixar film that anthropomorphizes elements, like fire element protagonist Ember Lumen (Leah Lewis).<\/p>\n

66. Wade Ripple<\/p>\n

In “Elemental,”\u00a0Ember ends up meeting water element Wade Ripple (Mamoudou Athie) during a moment of stress, and the two clash … obviously.<\/p>\n

67. Mabel Tanaka<\/p>\n

In “Hoppers,” heroine Mabel Tanaka is so passionate about conserving habitats for beavers that she places her consciousness into a robotic beaver to join forces with them, and she’s voiced by Piper Curda.<\/p>\n

68. King George (Mammal King)<\/p>\n

As Piper tries to save her beaver buddies in “Hoppers,” she aligns herself with King George (Bobby Moynihan, also known as the “Mammal King.”<\/p>\n

69. Sid<\/p>\n

When we first meet Sid in “Toy Story,” he’s a sadistic, weird kid who likes breaking his toys, and he’s voiced by Erik von Detten.<\/p>\n

70. Zurg<\/p>\n

Voiced by Pixar’s own Andrew Stanton, Emperor Zurg often shows up in “Toy Story” as Buzz Lightyear’s alien antagonist.<\/p>\n

71. Stinky Pete<\/p>\n

In “Toy Story 2,” Woody and Jessie are nearly sold to a museum in Japan … and they escape despite attempted sabotage by another member of their set, Stinky Pete (Kelsey Grammer).<\/p>\n

72. Evelyn Deavor<\/p>\n

“The Incredibles 2” brings back the central superhero family but also introduces the new antagonist Evelyn Deavor, a tech whiz voiced by Catherine Keener.<\/p>\n

73. Lots O’ Huggin Bear<\/p>\n

By the time “Toy Story 3” rolls around, Woody and his pals find themselves in a daycare center run with an iron fist by the seemingly benign\u00a0Lots O’ Huggin Bear, voiced by Ned Beatty.<\/p>\n

74. Bullseye<\/p>\n

With vocal effects by Frank Welker, Bullseye, Jessie and Woody’s loyal horse companion, is a highlight of any “Toy Story” movie.<\/p>\n

75. Mam\u00e1 Coco<\/p>\n

As H\u00e9ctor’s daughter in “Coco,”\u00a0Mam\u00e1 Coco, voiced by Ana Ofelia Murgu\u00eda, is a source of wisdom for Miguel.<\/p>\n

76. The Aliens<\/p>\n

Voiced by\u00a0Jeff Pidgeon, the Aliens, which came from a claw machine in “Toy Story,” come as a set … and react as one too.<\/p>\n

77. Ellie Fredricksen<\/p>\n

Ellie doesn’t speak during the opening of “Up,” but her silent, doomed love story with Carl will move you to tears.<\/p>\n

78.\u00a0Henry J. Waternoose<\/p>\n

The CEO of Monsters, Inc. in “Monsters Inc.,”\u00a0Henry J. Waternoose, voiced by\u00a0James Coburn, seems like a good guy \u2014 until the twist is revealed.<\/p>\n

79.\u00a0Dean Abigail Hardscrabble<\/p>\n

In the prequel “Monsters University,” a young Mike and Sulley learn from Dean Abigail Hardscrabble, voiced by British treasure Dame Helen Mirren.<\/p>\n

80. Auto<\/p>\n

This sentient machine from “WALL-E” was pretty clearly inspired by HAL from “2001:\u00a0A Space Odyssey.”<\/p>\n

81. Andy Davis<\/p>\n

Voiced by John Morris, Andy Davis is the owner of the toys in the “Toy Story” movies … until he grows up and goes away to college at the end of “Toy Story 3.”<\/p>\n

82.\u00a0Mam\u00e1 Imelda Rivera\u00a0<\/p>\n

Stalwart character actress Alanna Ubach lends her voice to “Coco” as Mam\u00e1 Imelda Rivera, wife of the late H\u00e9ctor.<\/p>\n

83. Bruce the Shark<\/p>\n

A friendly “vegetarian” shark found in “Finding Nemo,”\u00a0Bruce the Shark, voiced by Barry Humphries and named for the “Jaws” animatronic, constantly reminds himself that “fish are friends, not food.”<\/p>\n

84. Sally Carrera<\/p>\n

A sleek Porsche in “Cars,”\u00a0Sally Carrera dreams of reviving Radiator Springs and is voiced by Bonnie Hunt.<\/p>\n

85. Bonnie<\/p>\n
