People, Pixar is returning to completely original material! They have been on a sequel/prequel kick lately (Toy Story 3, Monsters University, Cars 2), and even when they make an original film (Brave), it draws heavily on stuff we have seen before. Inside Out is their latest film, and it sounds like something that could be very inventive and entertaining. You know, the kind of stuff Pixar was built on. A new trailer for the film is available for you all to watch.
Inside Out comes courtesy of director Pete Docter (Monsters, Inc., Up) and screenwriter Michael Arndt (Little Miss Sunshine, Toy Story 3). The film concerns with the various emotions and thoughts occurring in our heads and how they interact with one another. That sounds like a very interesting world to explore, and in a Pixar created world, even more interesting.
Docter has been a major component to Pixar since for a long time now, and Up is one of the studio’s finest films. Arndt proved he works extremely well with Pixar with Toy Story 3. So, I hope the two of them, along with a talented voice cast including Bill Hader, Amy Poehler, Mindy Kaling, and Diane Lane, show Pixar is still a viable studio good for original, well crafted films.
I am really avoiding trailers for this one. I like going into a new Pixar movie pretty blind. But for those of you who want to watch it, you can below.
Pixar takes audiences on incredible journeys into extraordinary worlds: from the darkest depths of the ocean to the top of the tepui mountains in South America; from the fictional metropolis of Monstropolis to a futuristic fantasy of outer space. From director Pete Docter (Up, Monsters, Inc.) and producer Jonas Rivera (Up), the inventive new film will take you to a place that everyone knows, but no one has ever seen: the world inside the human mind.
Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it’s no exception for Riley, who is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Like all of us, Riley is guided by her emotions – Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center inside Riley’s mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley’s main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house and school.
