I read the piece again and became even more disappointed.

2026: "Docter said Pixar found some parents didn’t want entertainment to force them to have a conversation they weren’t ready for with their children. “We’re making a movie, not hundreds of millions of dollars of therapy,” he said."

2009:

Man, I miss the days when a Pixar movie was an opening weekend must-see. I haven’t even seen most of the recent releases at all.

They have new releases???

Haven’t seen anything since, um, Red?

@futuresprog @rick_baumhauer “Inside Out 2" is a fantastic movie, one of Docter’s, and released in 2024. Best depiction of anxiety I have seen in any movie. Which makes it even more obvious that his “We’re making a movie, not hundreds of millions of dollars of therapy” line is a bullshit excuse.
We did see “Inside Out 2” in the theater.
