is Inside Out 2 any good?

[@angeles252]

What keeps the audience emotionally invested is that the stakes of Riley’s real world keep getting bigger and more significant. Will she make the team? Will she lose her old friends at the cost of new ones? Can she hold to her code of ethics?

[@mrmikejsteele]

(Spoilers, maybe?) Riley grounding herself was the only spot where I had tears. They captured that breakthrough well, both inside her head and in the penalty box. Totally agree on the “maybe too complicated for its own good” observation. I liked it, but it felt clunky (and not just in the puberty-is-awkward way)

[@bharatnair15]

Why didn't they call the sequel 'outside in'? Are they stupid?

[@MYMOTHERISAFISH-ci2ts]

Please no ASLUME here 😭 I am not proud of you

[@Linkman8912]

They clearly are stupid

Love the Bringing Up Baby and La Dolce Vita posters in the back

*SPOILERS* I'm someone who has dealt with anxiety disorder for a few years now. I think a huge missed opportunity the movie had was being more creative. It follows beat for beat a lot of things from the first movie. It reminds me of the SNL sketches that have almost the same script but only change the guest star. It even has the "Joy starts crying because Riley is changing" part which never worked for me even in the first movie. But I think that seeing Riley's teenage years, seeing her deal with those emotions through high school and have her make big mistakes would've allowed the story to go to unexpected places. Anxiety isn't the type of thing a teenager gets and controls in 3 days, it would've been interesting to see how that affects you long term. I disagree with Jake here because I think the movie was not complex and was very simplistic. BTW, I've had panic attacks and I'm tired of people saying "Wow, they portrayed an anxiety attack" as if it was something new, haha. Having said that, I LOVE the core beliefs addition, when Anxiety dropped her last memories and her new sense of self was formed and it simply said "I'm not good enough"...oof, I cried, it hit too close to home, ngl. Overall, it was very personal to me and it's very special, but on the other hand I felt the story was very lacking.

I live in the Netherlands and for some reason this is only playing early July for some reason. This hyped me for whenever I get to watch it great review, also week 6 saying you guys should check out Ryusuke Hamaguchi :)

[@andrewdaniel9337]

Great review guys!

[@Internatube]

I couldnt disagree more with MCT's analysis of the film. As someone who has had to deal with racing or anxious thoughts and complex feelings of inadequacy and masking my internal racing anxieties on a near constant basis, this film made me feel SEEN. I like the first movie as a solid coming of age story but the climax of this movie was so critically resonant that it felt like going to therapy. Anxiety is the best new emotional character and Maya Hawke did a phenomenal job giving voice to her. I feel like years from now the themes and ideas from this movie will be taught in schools ro explain how neurodivergence works to kids.

I liked it. Good message about learning to control your emotions as you go through puberty

I was very mixed on this movie, I didn’t feel nearly the emotional power of the original, but I thought Anxiety was an inspired character and Maya Hawke’s voice performance was very good.

[@CommentaryCommenter]

I recommend watching Godzilla (1954), specifically the Japanese cut. It’s really interesting, especially if you know all of the history behind it.

[@PuffinDude]

When we went to watch it, this old man started to choke in the saddest scene of the movie. The only thing you could hear at that moment was the old man coughing, but I couldn't hold back my laugh. Anyways F in the Chat for that one Guy!

[@realarniegrape]

Jake sniffs to assert his dominance over Nadia.

[@gizzardgizzard3583]

I feel like a crazy person but I thought the first one was bad and forgettable (like most pixar films after like 2011)

[@TummyRubz]

Yeah the first movie left me completely cold, I thought the premise was fun but it was so forgettable. Hearing Jake say he cried during it was fascinating and makes me wanna rewatch it to check if I was in a bad mood or my brain wasn't working on first watch

[@leonkuwata4510]

@@TummyRubz It's Bing Bong. He's literally the entire problem. He's atrociously annoying at all times, acts like Adam Sandler's Jewish grandparents from "Eight Crazy Nights", and completely derails the core plot.

[@rickyrougs]

i rewatched the first one and it has nowhere near the depth of the new one. yes it ushered in an interesting concept and world but i thought 2 executed way better.

[@jianyuyj2016]

What is with the Kpop idol cut?

[@LocoGeorge123]

Idk isn’t it similar to the boy band cults of the 90s?

[@leo785587]

This guy needs to realize that the movie is meant for kids.

[@Blocparty01]

Why? He gave it a positive score. Plus he's an adult and i don't think he has kids so he is going to judge it based on his enjoyment and how well he thought they made it.
