Well, I'll tell you.
At the time Foodfight! was announced, the film was denounced for taking product placement to the extreme, and doing it in a film targeted at children. Kasanoff responded to the controversy by noting that they were not paid money for the brand inclusion and therefore the addition of known brands did not constitute product placement, though the brands were expected to provide $100 million worth of cross-promotion.
As well as being a financial failure, Foodfight! was critically panned. The A.V. Club stated that "...the grotesque ugliness of the animation alone would be a deal-breaker even if the film weren't also glaringly inappropriate in its sexuality, nightmare-inducing in its animation, and filled with Nazi overtones and iconography even more egregiously unfit for children than the script's wall-to-wall gauntlet of crude double entendres and weird intimations of inter-species sex". A New York Times article condemned the film saying: "The animation appears unfinished. The sexual innuendo is flagrant for a film ostensibly aimed at children. And the plot — grocery store mascots come alive at night to fight generic Brand X antagonists intent on taking over the shelves — is impenetrable and even offensive." The New York Times article reported that Foodfight! has been "seized upon by Internet purveyors of bad cinema".
Even the Nostalgia Critic finds it terrible in one episode when he reviews Foodfight!. After a parody of Batman Returns, where like Catwoman the Critic returns home in a daze and goes on a violent rampage on his house's objects, it is revealed that rage was caused by the Critic accepting to review Foodfight! (2012) following incessant requests by his fanbase. Agreeing to do so upon realizing his review could jumpstart it into popularity, declares it not only the worst animated movie he has ever seen, but also one of the worst movies he's ever reviewed, heavily panning the massive amount of product placement, ridiculous and inconsistent plot, horrible and often frightening animation, frequent trips into the Uncanny Valley, hideous racial stereotypes, dreadful puns and horrible sexual innuendos, the latter of which he deems unfit for what is supposedly a film for children. Special criticism is reserved for the fact that the product mascots shown are practically background characters in their own film (despite taking up a good chunk of the advertising) and half of them are bitter, unflattering parodies of the ones the producers could not afford, as well as the fact that the film's budget was apparently $65 million, which baffles him considering the outcome, and how they wasted it on the final product. Additionally, he accuses the film of feeding into unhealthy fetishes, tying into the film's heavy sexual innuendos. In the end, he figures out that the creator of the film must be Jar Jar Binks, who he fires a missile at. Afterwards, he learns that all his suffering was for nothing, as the film never became popular after all due to the "Hipster Effect", leading back to the opening, after which he warns his fellow critics to watch at their own risk.
Um, I'm pretty sure he was kidding when he said that. No need to get into all of that.Â
I know, but I just want to give out a pretty long and good reason why everybody hates the Food Fight! movie. And in case from Rabbit and Pooh's quote from The New Adventures of Winnie the Pooh episode "Tigger Got Your Tongue" that "there is a reasonable explaination for everything!"
Of course!!! Youre absolutely right, and I and everyone else are so wrong!!! How could I not see that??? ;-)
It's kinda far from that position, but I agreed there has to be a reason why some of the audience - including critics - called Frozen "the best ever". I wasn't sure why I was so attracted to it back then, even to the point of obsession (the start of being a huge fangirl). I just knew that I love it.Â
The best Disney film, however...I'm not sure exactly. But I guaranteed Beauty and the Beast and The Lion King (and other Renaissance plus Classics films) hold top spots. And although an unnecessary sequel, I think Toy Story 3 is the best in the trilogy.Â

And I don't think any other animated films have been seen in the top 5 of any lists more than "Pinocchio" and "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs"
My answer is clear from my username ;)
I wouldn't say Frozen is the best animated film of all time, but I definitely think it's one of the best of all time :)
Good opinion.
It's one of the best but to me, it's not the best :)
There are a ton of animated films I think is better than Frozen, for me at least...
Up, WALL-E, Finding Nemo, the Toy Story franchise, Zootopia, How To Train Your Dragon, Inside Out...
Those are just a few :D
