WALL-E wasn't a flop, but it wasn't exactly a major success, either. And like leemac, I'm surprised they took him back. Must be Nemo2.

I have never even seen any of the Cars films... the concept just didn't appeal to me. I've also never much liked the Toy Story films... probably for much the same reason. If I want to watch talking toys, I'll watch Chucky! lol I have to say I did like Brave, although it didn't seem like a "Pixar Film" to me. It reminded me more of Tangled than anything that Pixar had previously done.
