Inside Out 2 - What did you guys think?
Inside Out 2 - What did you guys think?
This is the movie I probably would have seen this weekend if they hadn't shut down all of the Alamo Drafthouse theaters in my city. Was it a good time?
It was, for most of the movie, absolutely not a good time, but that was exactly the vibe they were going for. It's cringey, anxiety-inducing, and in a lot of parts like watching a train wreck in slow motion. Definitely worth seeing, but probably not one I'd rewatch in a heartbeat.
I thought it was good but not as moving as the first. I like that they explain the function of anxiety, similar to how they showed that Sadness had a function in the first. Originally Anxiety was going to be the villain, but they avoided that trap.
Some of the teen stuff is cringey. And there's nothing on par with the Bing Bong moment in terms of sheer emotion. But overall it was a good movie.

that permanent or temp?
So the theaters in several cities were run by a franchisee. They suddenly without any warning declared bankruptcy and closed all the theaters they managed in all cities and fired all their employees. The corporate entity that is Alamo Drafthouse (I didn't even know these were franchises) has stated that they are working to reopen in the closed cities, but at this point it's lip service. They seem to indicate that they also didn't know the franchisee was going to take this action, so to some degree it seems like they were blindsided as well. I have become so accustomed to the superior experience at the drafthouse I am having a hard time trying to convince myself to start seeing movies in other theaters (not to mention, their theaters were pretty much the closest to me any way so going somewhere else means driving further for a worse experience). Sigh. This all happened before Sony bought the corporate entity so there are a LOT of unknowns.
It was AMAZING.
as good as the first.
There were a few small moments that were kinda stupid, but their representation of anxiety was spot on.
There was a moment where the girls were taking off their skates while on concrete and the hockey player in me just cringed at the idea of it….
But it was fantastic
Did you notice much of a difference in the voices for Disgust and Fear... since Mindy Kaling and Bill Hader weren't reprising their roles?
(due to Pixar's studio heads' greed)
Tony Hale as Fear was great
