Mercury33 Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I can’t tell if I’m growing out of Pixar/Disney(at age 40) or if they really have had just a lot of crap and boring ideas for the last 10 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silentbob Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 It looks cute enough, and it will be cool to see Toronto front and centre for the movie. From the same director/writer of the short Bao Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While they still make decent movies, with some downright brilliant (Coco) they aren't consistently great the way they used to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chakoo Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 I like the use of a red panda but not a fan of the design for the girl character. I'm curious to see how this evolves over time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghost_MH Posted July 14, 2021 Author Share Posted July 14, 2021 I so loved Coco. It's Pixar's best movie since Inside Out. Moana is easily Disney best CG musical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamusha Posted January 8, 2022 Share Posted January 8, 2022 How many Pixar movies have been dumped on Disney+ now? All of the Disney animated movies have received proper theatrical releases and the Pixar movies have become streaming exclusives. I heard last year that there was unrest at the studio over the treatment of two Pixar movies in a row skipping theaters. Now it’s gonna be three.

Guest Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 The treatment of Pixar is really strange. They have put all the DFA and even Ron’s Gone Wrong into theaters over the last year, but not Pixar stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Commissar SFLUFAN Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 I wonder if the eventual goal is to fold Pixar entirely into Disney Animation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 i can’t imagine the buzz lightyear movie will go to disney plus maybe this movie is just the victim of bad timing with omicron? it’s def weird that pixar keeps going straight to D+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how it would go down in that house at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamusha Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 This is easily one of Pixar's best within the last decade. I feel like they've been starting to become a little too beholden to that "Pixar formula" but this one feels very fresh and as a unique and stylized aesthetic. And from someone who grew up with an overly-controlling mom, this movie has a great message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kal-El814 Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I haven’t seen this movie yet, but online reactions to it are a litmus test for horrible white people and people who clutch their pearls while screaming “won’t someone think of the children!” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Them moving the movies to D+ didn't change their marketing budget, they've been advertising the hell out of the stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kamusha Posted March 14, 2022 Share Posted March 14, 2022 I've heard speculation that Chapek doesn't doesn't value Pixar because their movies, outside of Toy Story and Cars, doesn't sell the same amount of merchandise as those from Disney Animation. Which is why the last few Pixar flicks have been exclusive. Could have some truth to it but funnily enough Turning Red is about to sell a shit ton of red panda plushies. Hell, even I want a plushie now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen a few parents say the film is saying kids should disobey their parents, but they are obviously missing a lot of nuance from the message because it's definitely not saying that.

That it sexualized children, that the content is too mature for the intended audience, that the main character isn’t relatable because she’s Asian.

It so lame conservatives are making a big deal about a movie depicting puberty. The average cis-girl has her first period at 12. That’s still a child and they should know about it by then. One of my students is fifth-teen and she was telling me that she wished more stories normalized periods. She said it only makes it scarier for children to not mention them. Another one of my students is ten, I’m assuming too young to experience what the movie is alluding to, and she loved it so much she watched it three times.
