Pixar's Inside Out

[MadVillainy]

I wonder if the rest of the body is "alive" too. Like Osmosis Jones or something

 

[BoredGuy]

haha totally

the Sequel will be Riley's teenage liver learning to accept its newfound responsibilities

 

[terry78]

Well, you saw the puberty button.

 

[MadVillainy]

I honestly wish we'd get a sequel son, but I doubt we'll get it until 5 years at the earliest going by Pixar's history

 

[Snow Queen]

Honestly, this might be one of the ones I wouldn't mind seeing get a sequel. It'd make more sense than Cars 2, Finding Dory and Monsters University. I could see a really solid trilogy being made out of this.

[BLACKOUT]Ending with Riley becoming an astronaut and finally going to the moon. [/BLACKOUT]

 

[BoredGuy]

yeah they could easily continue it, showing some of the other big moments in her life and how her emotions process them, and as long as they have a good idea for how to do it, Pixar could have another Toy Story

I was literally just about to type that.

This could be this generations Toy Story. ANd I usually hate that "___'s generation" stuff but I really feel that for this.

Riley was shown in middle school, they can show her in high school, and then as college or as an adult.

A new dominate emotion could be introduced. I think "Love" would be a good one. Love is the only one I can think encompasses joy, anger, sadness, disgust, and fear

I did like this movie, but it's certainly not among my favorite Pixar films. I'd probably rank it with Ratatouille. There were some real funny bits in there, like the "Tripledent gum" song. That cracked me up, or the "dream theater" sequence. I absolutely hated the Pixar volcano short at the beginning.

I just don't really see how you do a sequel to this one. I certainly don't see a toy story franchise, but it's apparent alot of people liked this one better than I did.

My favorite Pixar films have been Nemo, The TS films, Monster's Inc, and the first Cars (Cars 2 was by far the worst Pixar film, only because Planes was done by Disney proper not Pixar).

I'd probably rank this one with Ratatouille, it was fun enjoyable, I laughed, but probably not one I'll own on blu-ray.

8/10

Really?

Making a sequel to this seems like a no brainer.

-How does maturing and growing up change your personality and emotions. Her "core foundations" or whatever they are called can change.
-Puberty (they even teased this one)
-Romance and it's effects on the mind

And those are just 3 simple ideas

Just saw this film and what an affecting film it was. Tremendous stakes, wonderful creativity in bringing such an abstract concept to life, and a intensely personal story. I do think it's the best Pixar film in years and one of the year's best hands down. The voice acting was fabulous!

The thing I kept wondering about the film is a how a sequel would tackle other aspects of growing up. (I suppose all adults thought about this) They hinted at a lot of this with the end of the story. With regards to puberty, I kept on expecting there to be a Mustapha Mond-esque character, someone who transcends the 5 emotions of the story and who Joy would meet in order to learn about puberty and how emotions/people change as we grow up. From my adult's perspective, I kept on imagining Joy having a personal crisis as she in a sense, shed her own innocence and ends up becoming even more interconnected with the other emotions as well.

I think the magic of the film is how it causes adults to reflect upon our emotions, in relation to the people we care about and ourselves as well. I love how it depicts growing up and that how we can lose and recreate aspects of our personality as our understanding of the world grows, and how for our memories to be whole we need all of our emotions. In a way, it was very Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, as it showed that Joy could not keep Riley happy alone.

But yeah, a sequel is a no-brainer for something like this. There is tremendous stuff to be mined here! Christoph Waltz for schadenfreude! Morgan Freeman for the superego!! Joking aside, there's just a ton of fun stuff you could play with here. Such an ingenious concept, I kept on wondering if I could have an adult version of this.

 

[terry78]

I did like how they alluded to basically the emotions not being present and not pushing any buttons being the equivalent of a mental shutdown.

The R-rated spin-off that follows the emotions inside of the mind of a serial killer.

I purchased it on iTunes.

The problem is the interesting stuff was inside the brain. I didn't find any of the stuff with the family compelling. It was the total opposite of Toy Story for me, where what was going on with Andy and the outside world was as interesting as what the Toys were doing.

Just let Lewis Black, Mindy Kaling, Bill Hader, Amy Poehler, and Phyllis Smith go to town!!! I'd also think it'd be funny if we could add more emotions and they could be played by like, Aziz Ansari.

Interesring perspective, aince I very much disagree with you and my rankings of Pixar films are pretty much polar opposites with WALL-E, UP, Ratatouille, and The Incredible being favourites and Cars, A Bug's Life, Nemo, and Monster's Inc. being rather meh for me personally.

with the ideas I presented that's all still stuff they can show the changes happening in the mind.

Yup.

 

[spiderman2]

Just saw this movie last night and it was very different and good. There where some very funny parts where I couldn't stop laughing like the girl girl part. Not as good has toy story but still very good.

 

[Steyin]

The only thing lingering on my mind are the sexes of the emotions. We saw that in other people's heads all the emotions were either male or female, not mixed like in Riley's. Perhaps its because she's a little tomboyish? Thought it was interesting.

The parents' emotions were not only all one gender, but they were also much more "level," so I was thinking that the emotions are so varied in Riley because she is still a kid and finding herself.

Or it could be that they just picked whatever they thought would work best for the looks/voices and the story.

 

[terry78]

Now I'm wondering as she gets older if Fear and Anger will change sexes. Hilarity in itself.

 

[Smilodon]

I thought it was curious how Riley basically had Joy as the main personality in her head, while her parents had Anger and Sadness respectively. Probably just something they did to differentiate the characters, but I did wonder if adults' default emotions were either anger and sadness (or maybe those are my default emotions T.T)

I was reading about that. But then again her parent's emotions seemed much more in tune than Riley's despite who was the dominant emotion. Probably because mom and dad are a lot older and have more or less settled into who they are.

 

[BoredGuy]

Yeah I took it as, when you get older you gain more control over your emotions, so they essentially homogenize into the overall personality of the human they inhabit. So while the father may have temper issues, and the mother has occasional depression, their emotions work together to create more balanced experiences and responses. And after the progression we saw in Riley's mind in the story, her emotions are now on their way towards coalescing, with a less overly ecstatic Joy probably still in control.

As for the genders thing, perhaps that was Pixar's statement on the fluidity of gender. We all start off biologically as women, so maybe the emotions are both masculine and feminine until a person settles into their preferred (societally-defined) gender role.

that sounded kinda smart, right?
