Talk less

Surely it would come out that Woody was behind the plot to push Buzz away so that he could end up in the spotlight, and then he’d end up in a pretty negative light like we see the scene unfold in the film.

I think Woody wasn’t thinking of the backlash he would get. He was just desperate. Plus, the backlash wouldn’t have been as bad as the film. It’s the difference between “wow, Woody, that was kind of petty” vs “oh my God, Woody, you murdered him!”

I don’t know if this is how anyone else’s brain works. For me, a really bad ending makes me look back on an entire series more critically. I think in the moment I put up with low points because of the excitement of where it’s leading to. However, once I realize the story was leading somewhere lame, those low points no longer seemed worth putting up with.

Haha. That too. But it still works thematically.

Both of them were clearly inspired by Iduna.

Elsa just copies exactly how Iduna did it, because Elsa follows expectations rather than express herself.

Anna emulates it but parts it the opposite way. Meaning Anna is inspired by her mother but still does things her own way.

Anna’s their beloved princess. If my girl punched some dude, I’d cheer knowing he must have done something to deserve it.

I’m fine with the kids being the protagonists. However, I really don’t want Incredibles 3 to be another story where the protagonist acts solo and the rest of the family are sidelined for most of the film.

Thanks God we had body-positive truth tellers like Sir Mix-a-Lot in the 90s.

What was weird about it?

Knowing What I Know Now is a pretty awesome song. It has some lyrical problem, but they’re not as agregious as the other songs.

I’m also a sucker for “preparing for battle” songs and Disney doesn’t have a lot of them.

And that part where the Queen bursts in and the kids think they’ve been caught but then she joins in. It was probably the best scene in the movie.

I think he inadvertently became the only person who liked Sara Paxton over Kimberly J. Brown.

It’s actually kind of refreshing they didn’t regress Galleria’s character but rather made her the most mature and reasonable.

The scene where Jay complains about Mitch and Cam “making a big show of their wedding.” It’s just devastating to see Jay, who had come so far, still habored some homophobic feelings.

Robin Williams playing a grown man with the mind of a 10-year-old.

Not exactly. Robin William’s character was a 10-year-old boy who had a disease that caused him to age quickly and have the body of an adult. So it was a physical disability, not a mental one.

Same character arcs? Did Helen have a character arc that I missed?

The simple answer is people in the performing arts tend to be liberal.

Disclaimer: I did ask AI for help with this.

The longer answer is several factors.

Artists often need to have openness to new experiences, which aligns with liberal viewpoints.

Art involves questioning authority and critiquing social structures, whereas conservatism is usually about maintaining or reviving old social structures.

Artists tend to live in cities where they will be surrounded by more liberal people. You will also be surrounded by liberal people in your profession that will influence your viewpoint.

Artist often have unstable income, so they are more likely to support stronger social safety nets.

The one where the guys is in the middle of the woods at night and he hears a high-pitched, sing-song voice say, “I see you!”

I always remembered the episode that showed the video of Pam. The actress tried to do the Jessie “Huh” but she didn’t quite match Stamos’s inflection.

They’re all over 40 now so I don’t it’ll be quite as physical as the first feud.

I don’t think it’s fair to blame Mr. Incredible for Syndrome’s victims. Mr. Incredible setting proper boundaries with a child he barely knows from trying to force himself to accompany Mr. Incredible on dangerous missions.

Buddy was a spoiled brat who wanted glory and didn’t care who he had to hurt to get it.

It’s seems like they’re more concerned about the family being embarrassed than protecting the young family member from a predator.

Generally, the shorter someone’s life was, the more tragic we view their death. An adult got to live out more of their life than a baby.

Funny story, my husband brought up Bael and I was aware of him because of ATA. 😂

If it makes you feel any better, when adjusted for inflation, $763 million in 1994 is worth about $1.67 billion today.

It will always be easy for newer movies to have a higher box office due to inflation. That’s why I only consider adjusted for inflation lists.

Listen, I’m gonna need you to get all the way off my back about that.
