re: Inside Out was amazing

Was remained of this mainly because I got a song stuck in my head today. I loved how they had the triple mint gum show up at random times throughout the movie. Speaks so true to what goes on in my head lol.

Wow. This movie was absolutely terrific. Pixar is the undeniable GOAT. It's incredible what they continue to do. Many thought they might be running out of steam because it had been awhile since a strong original from them and then Inside Out comes along. This was their most creative and ambitious project since WALL-E, and they hit it out of the park. Honestly don't even know where to begin with the praise, but it was so amazing and I already want to watch it again.

For me personally, this enters the top tier of Pixar along with the Toy Story franchise, WALL-E, and Up. They've also created a tremendous franchise opportunity with this idea. They can make sequels as Riley ages or go another way and use the idea in another human situation.

Bravo.

Some Spoilers below























I could watch an entire movie based off of Dogs vs Cats.


Also, the teenage boy...

Forget it, Jake, its Cloudtown...

I also was cracking up at the argument over the hats

Also loved the cat just freaking out because the fear emotion caused the control panel to go haywire.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, but I still gotta go with Finding Nemo as Pixar's best. That movie was simply gorgeous and I can laugh even harder watching on the 5th time with my niece than I did watching it the first.

They said it was nothing like they thought it would be and was actually sad to them.

Well, that's sort of the point. Maybe it'll make more sense in a couple years.

Just saw it, great movie with a great message, hilarious too.
The boys mind freaking out, and the cat at the end had me rolling

just got back as well. went and visited the family and we went and saw it

thought it was very good. didn't like it as much as Toy Story or Up, but it's probably my 3rd favorite pixar flick. pixar can world build like no other

---

I agree with this. Saw it tonight. Very well done, right in top tier, maybe not. I'd still say Up, Wall-E, Monster's Inc. and Finding Nemo are probably better. It's right there with TS3, Incredibles and A Bug's Life though.

MINOR SPOILERS











that being said, i feel like riley's storyline was a missed opportunity. i think it was a mistake to make it last the course of the 2 days or or so that it did. the constant failures by joy and sadness kinda wore on me and made it feel a tad overlong for me. i wouldve stretched it out and had more real life stuff happen with school and such. Apparently there was an earlier version of the script that was similar to the one I envisioned, but it was deemed too inappropriate.

Also would've left Disgust out. Liked her design and her spunk, but her writing was notably hollow compared that of the others. It's just not strong enough an emotion to include IMO

---

I kind of agree here as well. I just would have gone another direction. I felt it dragged a lot in the middle. Or I wish that Joy and Sadness getting lost was actually on purpose or for a reason, not just a mistake. I felt they went out of their way to make things make some sort of sense, but let random hijinks control major plot points. Missed opportunities there that keep it from being better.
