The 2014 Oscar Best Picture Nominees as Pixar Films are, Well, Perfect

Well if this isn't just the most adorably perfect mash-up of things we've seen all day! Imagine a world wherein your favorite movies — or at least the 2014 Oscar-nominated ones — were made by Pixar. Replacing every actor would be a lovable rat, a talking dog, some over-eager superheros, or even a robot or two. It would be, in a word, glorious (if you just so happen to be a child or lover of adorably charming things).

Luckily, we need not rely on our own imaginations to find out what that world would look like, because Todd Spence over at Break has done the heavy-lifting for us, transforming all 10 of the 2014 Oscar Best Picture nominees into Pixar-ilzed posters.

You can head over there to see all 10, but first why not take a look at our 5 favorites and the mash-up films we've imagined to go along with them, eh?

The Syndrome of Wall Street

You may have thought that Syndrome was dead after The Incredibles — but you were wrong. Thanks to the magical healing powers of quaaludes, Syndrome is back and more determined than ever to take over the world. Only there’s a hitch: it took awhile for the quaaludes to bring him back to life and things have changed dramatically since he was last alive. So he adjusts and quickly formulates a fool-proof ponzi scam that turns his life upside-down, inside-out, and higher than he’s ever been before.

Her-a

In the not-so-distant future stands a robot alone, Wall-E, on the hunt for signs of empathy and a revived emotional quotient from his evil human overlords.

Until one night he stumbles upon the archived and disembodied consciousness of a once-iconic star named Barbra Streisand. Through song and learning to love, the two strike up an intimate relationship the world has never before seen.

NebraskUP

Carl Fredricksen has just won a million dollars, much to the disbelief of his friends and family — and anyone who looks at the letter and sees it’s a scam. Still, Carl is insistent to pick up his winnings, but there’s a catch: in order to do so, he must journey to Angel Falls in Venezuela. Afraid to leave his home for the first time in 20 years, he and his son Russell decide to go for broke and end up on a truly outrageous adventure that brings them closer together.
