Every time I watch this film, I can't help but wonder what the state of mind of people who haven't been able to get out of depression is in their heads. The control table should be locked with some emotions missing at the mental station; they are lost 😢
I don't know if I had any imaginary friends...I don't know anymore...if I had any, then they disappeared like Bing Bang. Sorry for my imaginary friends that I may have had in the past ^^"
10:56 “how to change a good memory into sadness?” - my answer is; by having another point of view of the situation. I think that if one of these emotions were to represent me in my head, it would be sadness because even if the moment is happy, I always think of something that hurt me or made me sad and unhappy.
I moved when I returned to CP. I think the transition went smoothly because my family and I went to the new house to see how the work was progressing. So when it was time to actually move, I was already a little used to it. What was hard was getting into my new school. I had no friends initially, but it remained complicated for me to integrate.
For me, this is how it happens in the brain. Of course, Pixar personified things so that we understand. Personally, the first time I saw this film, I said to myself "waaaaah...but it's so logical actually!" because I guess they had to do scientific research to make this film in order to stay consistent with our reality.
Two things I especially love about this movie: 1. It illustrates how depression is about much more than simply feeling "sad" all the time. It's feeling like parts of yourself are starting to go missing, along with your ability to feel the full range of feelings. Not amnesia, but a sort of incompleteness, an emptiness that starts to take over. 2. It illustrates how Sadness has value all on its own (not just as a way of "appreciating joy" or whatever). It shows that sadness is a crucial part of processing bad experiences, and then moving past them. And also that sadness is a big part of how we signal others that we need help - and what allows us to feel bad for other people in an empathetic way.
It's also interesting how joy is the only one with 2 colors, the bright yellow, the blue hair and the blue eyes. I think it's a way to show, that there is no joy without sadness.
You mention about mom & dad's emotion crew, and how they reflect the outer human. There was a whole discourse around this (including why Riley has mixed-gender emotions, but I'm not going into that here: since Disney have doubled down on the 'phobery, I don't think that idea's got legs and I'm sure not going to project credit where it's not deserved). Instead I want to put out a thought I had: whilst Riley is the protagonist, the story is told from the POV of Joy. She is the Narrator, so what we see in Mom & Dad's minds is Joy's understanding of what was (probably) going on in there. The characters' appearance is reflected on what Joy imagines that crew to look like. And the five work in a way that she is familiar with. So perhaps as she tells this story of how Riley went through a bout of mental unwellness, and how she understands it may have been for the people around her. Also, cf the end credit clips, same idea.
Man one of the last movie i enjoyed before my phase of growing out of watching every animation movie possible haha. Loved your reaction to it, i hope you do the next one soon (if you wanted hockey youre getting hockey in this one haha), its veeery deserving of his title as Disney’s new biggest hit i think 🙃 great video as always man 😉
Oh wow! I moved from the states of New Mexico to Oklahoma, and my emotions freaked out enough about that, I can’t imagine that moving across countries was even more of a culture shock for you!
Inside out two is even better and it to dives into even more more emotions and and everything in between check out part two you will enjoy it even better
The muted, gray colors: that's just the marine fog layer in the San Francisco mornings. It burns off and makes everything brighter for the rest of the day. It's all beautiful.
As someone who has dealt with depression most of my life, no, being sad is not depression. When Riley is running away from home and the console turns black, THAT is a much better representation of depression. Emotional states as a whole become screwy, and negative emotions such as sadness and anger which are easier to slip into become the norm. For me it led to a long period of feeling perpetually tense and guilty all the time. Sadness in and of itself is not the culprit, it's a symptom to be sure. But believe me, nothing feels worse than suffering from depression and having someone try to empathize by saying they feel sad sometimes too. It's a whole other world when that sadness converts from hours, to days, to weeks, to years. I've been on a better track to mental health for the past few months now and it has been night and day since I began getting some medical assistance for it. But I cannot express just how awful it made me feel when people tried to empathize and would say that they feel sad sometimes too and that you just have to get over it. It really doesn't work that way, and all it ever did was make me feel even worse for the fact something was wrong with me and I couldn't just overcome it.
52:11 this was indeed a reference and it was a reference to the film Chinatown. At the very end of the film the guy says 'Forget it Jake, it's Chinatown'
I love this movie. The sequel's good too, but this will always be one of my favorite movies. The way they portray emotions is beautiful and so real, and the music sets the mood so well.
Many reactors are the same. It's often not until joy and Bing Bong fall into three place of forgotten memories and joy learns Riley's need for sadness, and that it helps to tell others that you need help that the reactors start to learn it too.
I don't like pineapple period, on pizza or not. I don't like broccoli either, but I have never heard of anyone actually putting broccoli on pizza, I think it's a running joke in the movie, Riley really doesn't like broccoli, remember her broccoli tantrum as a baby, there's also the broccoli forest in her subconscious, darkest fears.
I love how they emphasize the importance of "negative" emotions. Fear protects you from danger, disgust keeps you healthy, Anger gives you a sense of fairness, and sometimes, you really need a good cry.
Also consider this: the purpose of negative emotions in our day-to-day life is mainly to alert us of negative beliefs or definitions we are holding onto, for example, the belief that “I am not good enough”. Emotions do not exist in a vacuum, so the only reason you have emotions is because there is a belief system generating the emotion.
"Take her to the moon for me. Okay?" Bing Bong's death scene gets me every time. The VA, Richard Kind, actually cried while delivering that line. The voice break is real.
That scene hurts for some dark reasons due to my childhood trauma, won’t get into it but knowing that Richard Kind actually cried just sends me over the edge 😢😢😢 this was such an impactful film!
I love the "How to train your dragon" movies. The third one is my favorite! I really like the second movie, but my god... the death of Stoick breaks my heart every time. It's so sad! Why did he have to die just when he got his wife back? 😭💔
I absolutely, not in a million years, was ready or thinking that Stoic was going to die. That was just...insane. And yeah, right after getting his wife back.
Just like the first movie, this one just does so many things right. Hiccup and Astrid's relationship is adorable, Valka is a great character and addition to the cast, Drago is such an unstoppable force of a villain, Eret's redemption feels earned, Stoick's death was extremely emotional and impactful, (it still makes me cry,) the climax is just plain perfect, and as always, the animation and musical score are fantastic. A pretty damn great movie and an amazing sequel.
It is one of the best sequels I've seen. I feel like usually second movies are a bit meh, but this one definitely breaks that status quo. Easily a rewatchable movie. Stoick's death too, super impactful and completely unexpected. I was not ready for that level of seriousness in the movie.
One more to go in the trilogy! Are y'all looking forward to it? Don't forget about full length reactions on Patreon if you're interested! twitch.tv/soeverdream
The Lily Orchard hate video falsely described the songs in the movie as being over dance beats so I was expecting something a lot cooler and more interesting then what we actually got. Can you imagine if they used a hard style drop to represent fusion or something like that?
