They Released a Full Inside Out 2 Trailer While I Wasn’t Looking
Once upon a time, Pixar movies were really, really great. They’re mostly mediocre these days. I don’t remember being particularly impressed with the first Inside Out. I think it was fine? It’s definitely very popular in the public’s mind. So a sequel was a good idea!
Looks good to me! Even if the idea that there are additional emotions was pre-negated by the fact that we saw adult minds in the first film, and none of them had the additional emotions. How you gonna answer that, movie? Huh?!
Ugh, I’m sick this week and my blog banter is trash. Hope you enjoyed the trailer. Inside Out 2 comes to theaters on June 14.

Movie Trailer Monday
We’re back at the start of a new week, to share a couple of movie trailers I missed sharing this past week. There were probably more than these two, but these are apparently the two I bookmarked to share. I’m fun like that.
First up is a trailer for the new, animated Garfield cartoon, where Garfield is voiced by Chris Pratt. Man, everything about this trailer is soul crushing.
What are we doing as a society anymore? I guess we can all be happy for Chris Pratt that he’s still getting work. That’s a good thing, right? Do we still like Chris Pratt? He wasn’t that great as Mario…and, frankly, he doesn’t seem to be trying too hard as Garfield. I’m no Garfield apologist, but…eh?
The Garfield cartoon comes to theaters on May 24.
Next up is Inside Out 2, a sequel to a Pixar movie that didn’t require a sequel. But the world is as the world is.
I like the general idea. A bunch of new emotions that come with puberty? Sure! Granted, we didn’t see any of these other emotions when we peered into the heads of adults in the first film, but why let a little thing like continuity get in the way of a Pixar sequel? Gotta right this ship somehow.
Inside Out 2 comes to theaters in June.

A Short Film About a Girl Who Loves Hockey
It’s genius in its simplicity. A certain Internet mastermind, Jordan Hanzon, has edited the Pixar movie Inside Out to remove all the ‘inside’ parts that deal with Riley’s emotions. What’s left is a touching story about a girl struggling with moving to a new town. It’s just plain neat.
It’s such a simple but brilliant idea. I’m glad someone thought of it, though I wish it were me. I need to become Internet famous in 2016…

Inside Out Comes Out on DVD Today!
Not sure why I made the headline about a DVD release…but just so you know, I’m already off on my way to a week-long vacation in England! It’s the first time I’ve ever been to Europe! Hopefully I’ll have a great time, and I managed to scrounge up some random Internet videos so that my blog isn’t completely dead while I’m gone (tune in for a regular List of Six tomorrow!).
But anyway, Inside Out! We all liked that one, didn’t we?
Pixar’s alright these days. Though I’m not really looking forward to that new dinosaur movie at all. It just…I dunno…But Inside Out was good. And Honest Trailers is always reliable.

The Five Stages of Watching a Pixar Movie
Thank you, Only Leigh!
I saw Inside Out the other weekend and it was very good. Not one of Pixar’s best, but still an awesome flick. Unique premise, fun characters, great ending, quality bits of humor and emotion; solid Pixar all around. Of course, considering it came in at #2 behind Jurassic World (which I also saw), probably means that we’re going to get three more highly profitable Cars sequels before we get another really good Pixar movie.
Sigh.
