Ranking The Best Pixar Characters Of All Time
By JOSH SPIEGEL
10. Syndrome
Syndrome (Jason Lee) is a superfan of Mr. Incredible, who dismissed him as a childish pretender when he was a kid. Years later, he became his own kind of superhero.
As an adult, Syndrome is truly dangerous for “The Incredibles.“ He's smart enough to build big gadgets but also knows how superheroes work and wants to kill them.
9. Mike Wazowski
One of the more underrated character arcs in a Pixar film is in 2013’s "Monsters University," which focuses on the one-eyed Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal).
When he was younger, Mike wanted to be a Scarer, but he is friendly, wacky, and talkative, and his power comes from making those around him laugh.
8. Carl Fredricksen
Over 15 years later, there are still very few scenes in the Pixar canon that hit quite as hard as the "Married Life" sequence at the start of "Up."
“Up” relies on Carl (Ed Asner) and succeeds because of his gruff manner. Through the film, he slowly softens and is able to move on from his wife's passing.
7. Elastigirl
Helen Parr, or Elastigirl, is initially one of the most gifted superheroes who’s quite comfortable only ever living the super life in Pixar’s “The Incredibles” series.
Elastigirl's (Holly Hunter) superpowered stretching comes into play less as a cool and show-offy way to impress her kids and more as a way to literally save them from death.
6. Dory
"Finding Dory" put the Blue Tang in the spotlight, but really it was "Finding Nemo" that made Dory one of the most memorable and beloved characters in Pixar history.
Dory (Ellen DeGeneres) is a brilliant foil for the neurotic and intelligent Marlin, blithely swimming through her forgetful life with few cares in the world.
