Inside Out is the best major release movie of the year so far.
It was tough to hold back the tears, and I ain't no fuckin' pussy crybaby neither.
Pixar lately has done the "open with the emotional trauma" thing, which get's people all goopy for the ensuing redemption story... it's gotten formulaic. But to it's credit, it went another way with this movie and it works wonderfully. I don't know if illustrating the subtlety of what makes a child's emotions tick was the goal, but it came across clearly without having to be spelled out moronically. What a nice little movie.

A new poster put an awesome Yelp review that he made about 10 years ago in WBH thread about the UP, or the bridge. I think its on page 4.Rocinante wrote:What is that?

Mad Max without a doubt. I just watched Django Unchained for the first time and that was probably my favorite movie of the last 10 years.

Mad max was crazy, but I don't know if I'd call it a good movie. It was wild eye candy though.

I gave up pretentious about what makes something better than something else. Mad Max was exciting, had a good plot, didn't push a romantic story, etc. It looked great, the acting was good, the action sequences were non-stop, but not ridiculous.
Best movie of 2015.

I guess what I mean is I liked it, but it didn't exactly make me feel anything except that I'd just done a bunch of meth.

Is this movie a cartoon? I hope we can talk about Shoots & Ladders next.

Yes, which should illustrate to you how far major studio releases have fallen. It takes a cartoon to actually strike anything resembling a genuine emotional chord. It's sad. Still, good movie.

Quote fail. If you could be constructive instead of critical, and maybe name some others you think should be considered, I'm all for it.

I've heard it was great. I want to take the kids to see it. Also, if you 'almost' cried, I will definitely cry because I am a fuckin' pussy crybaby.

Oh yeah, you're fucked. Take a handkerchief and make sure you put your sunglasses on before you walk out or you're going to get laughed at by teenagers in the lobby.

Re: Inside Out is the best major release movie of the year so far.
Saw it for the 2nd time today/this evening. Wife wanted to see it. My son spent the whole day telling her about and how she would love it so they dragged me in. Really good. Even the 2nd time around. I kept it together the first time as I was distracted by my 2 year old walking up and down the steps but I may have shed a solitary tear this time at the whole Bing Bong thing. Pretty sure no one saw though so I'm solid.
The scenes during the credits are pretty funny.
The whole concept of this movie is pretty brilliant. The funny thing is I can absolutely see the mind working that way, especially in terms of memories. So well thought out.

I rented this yesterday, watched it this morning. It was a good movie, but nowhere near one of the best of the year. Come on, Roc.

I said best major studio release... also remember this was in July. I'm pretty sure I haven't been to the movies since.
Give me some examples of better ones? I have free time right in the next few weeks.
