‘Soul’ Will Tackle The Most Difficult Metaphysical Question, Stars Pixar’s First Black Lead

Right before the release of Toy Story 4 a few months back, Pixar surprised us with the announcement of one of their 2020 films. It would be Soul, directed by Pete Docter, who last directed the magnificent Inside Out. There are high expectations for Soul because of how good Docter’s last films have been, which also includes Up. Today, at the D23 Expo at the Anaheim Convention Center, Docter and company shared a bevy of details about the upcoming film! [Read more…]

Review: ‘Inside Out’ Is Pixar’s Best Film Since ‘Toy Story’

In just under 30 years of existence, Pixar has amassed an incredible amount of goodwill from audiences around the world, giving the studio more respect than any other film studio in Hollywood.

Even though both Brave and Monsters University were quality films, this year’s spectacular Inside Out will be the film that reminds viewers that Pixar has no equal in the film business.

‘Inside Out’ Could Forever Change The Way You Think About Emotions

Pete Docter is no stranger to telling ambitious stories. The Pixar director’s last film centered around an old man grieving for the loss of his beloved wife and then finding a way to move on by flying his house to South America using balloons. His upcoming film brings us inside the mind of an 11-year-old girl, with her emotions playing the main characters. After the break, find out what Docter told me about Inside Out, and you will begin to see that you may never view emotions the same way again. [Read more…]

I Watched The First Hour Of ‘Inside Out’ And It Was Mind-Blowing (No Spoilers)

Going all the way back to Up‘s release in 2009, there has been no Pixar film I have been more excited for than the upcoming Inside Out.

Last week, I had the privilege of visiting Pixar’s campus in Emeryville, California. While there, I watched the first hour from Inside Out, and I am happy to report that even though I walked in with the highest of expectations, I walked out fully impressed. [Read more…]
