It's appropriate that Pixar Animation Studios' first feature, 1995's "Toy Story," was centered on the world of playthings. Since then, no entertainment entity has been able to tap into our inner child with more consistently boundless imagination than the team spearheaded by John Lasseter.

This Friday, Pixar will attempt to do it again, with their latest animated outing, "Brave." Here, the studio takes the standard Disney princess and gives her a badass makeover, fiery red hair and a way with a bow and arrow, not to mention a thick Scottish brogue courtesy of the adorable Kelly Macdonald.

It's that penchant for character development that has made every entry in the Pixar filmography a bull's-eye. Which is why Moviefone is making a brave stance of our own and ranking almost every major character (all 118 of them!) from the 13 Pixar flicks. We also split them up into several different categories, including Cute Kids, Cuter Critters and the Adorable Sidekicks. Enjoy!

  • The Celebs

    The studio has lured some pretty good gets from celebrities either looking to impress their kids or earn a stable residual check, but Paul Newman is the cherry on top... or should that be the salad dressing?

  • Pixar Employees

    Even amid the intense pressure to keep topping themselves movie after movie, some of the studio's best and brightest find time to voice a character or two, as did the late Joe Ranft who helped define modern animation.

  • 98. John Lasseter as John Lassetire ("Cars 2")

  • 97. Pete Docter as Kevin ("Up")

  • John Ratzenberger

    The sardonic postal worker from "Cheers" has found a home in every single Pixar movie, and neither snow nor rain nor heat nor gloom of night stays him from doing so. His bad guy straight out of Jack Kirby-era "Fantastic Four" is the hilarious punchline of "Incredibles."

  • 79. John Ratzenberger as The Underminer ("The Incredibles")

  • The Loners

    "Lawrence of Arabia" himself lent an extra air of gravitas to the stuck-up food critic who gets magically transported back to his childhood via a simple peasant dish.

  • 78. Teddy Newton as Chatter Telephone ("Toy Story 3")

  • 77. Bud Luckey as Chuckles ("Toy Story 3")

  • 76. Willem Dafoe as Gill ("Finding Nemo")

  • 74. Jeff Garlin as Captain B. McCrea ("WALL-E")

  • 73. Peter O'Toole as Anton Ego ("Ratatouille")

  • The Bad Parents

    For years comedian Patton Oswalt used Brian Dennehy as a punchline in his act, so it was fitting that the great character actor should wind up playing his garbage eating, philistine rat of a father.
