    I haven’t legit enjoyed a Pixar film since “Up”. That was 2009 now. Wow.

    Brave was fine (2012). Same with Coco (2017). Pretty but predictable.

        I feel like Luca and Elemental were produced with international audiences in mind. A lot of visual gags, simple language, basic plots, easy to translate, inoffensive stereotypes, etc. Coco was vibrant and fun with complex characters and a twisty plot. They even dropped in plenty of adult humor and mature themes.

          Luca and Elemental had more of a Disney vibe to them. Up was the last Pixar movie to have that classic Pixar movie feeling to it.

        I couldn’t buy Inside Out, I just couldn’t get over that someone could get to be her age and not have any negative formative memories until she moves away.

        No dead pets? Sick grandma? Nothing? Moving away is the thing that breaks her brain? Sorry, I just didn’t buy it.

        It didn’t help that it was a teen angst version of an old TV show called Herman’s Head which was actually pretty funny:
