We got ourselves a double release for DH

Bruno from Encanto

And Heimlich from a Bugs Life.
Interesting tagteam to release, nice we are at least getting more Encanto characters at least.

@Megalobronia
me too

Who here plays Disney Dreamlight Valley? 🙋

After all this time, we finally got an Encanto character in DH

Beast is also getting a new outfit.

Cruella is coming to DH, an odd choice but she does have Jasper and Horace fighting for her so that makes sense at least.

My mom’s watching Inside Out on Disney+ to refresh her memory before we go see Inside Out 2 on Tuesday.

Except she keeps calling it Upside Down.

Aye yi yi… facepalms

I just got back from seeing Inside Out 2, and I loved it! I think it’s on par with the first movie; the story was really well thought out and the characters all played their part as you’d expect. When the main emotions get sent to the vault of secrets, we see she keeps things like a Bluey/Dora the Explorer character, and Final Fantasy anime character from a fighting game, and a shadowy beast that is just her darkest secret. Joy sents Sadness up to headquarters for when they need to get called back, so like the first film where it was Joy and Sadness on an adventure, now she’s doing one with Fear, Anger, and Disgust.
Anxiety is just what I expected, Envy is so adorable I just love it, Ennui is hilarious and I like they gave him a french accent, and Embarrassment is a good person; he doesn’t talk throughout the movie which I think was a clever choice, and the friendship he ends up having with Sadness was nice. We also get Nostalgia as an emotion, but she stays behind a closed door the whole movie.

Going through Riley’s mind again but with some new editions like the river of thoughts, the “Sar-cassum”, her imagination land where Anxiety has turned it into a workshop for probabilities, and when they need to come up with an idea it creates a brain storm.
Comedic bits aside, I also like how in this movie it isn’t just the memory orbs that control Riley’s mind but also the strings of consciousness which are suppose to dictate Riley as an overall person (she believes herself to be a good person essentially). When the demo crew come to renovate, they alter the console in a way that makes Riley overreact with just the slightest touch, so it certainly shows just how overdramatic teens can be, and of course at the end of the movie the new and old emotions all work together as a team, and Anxiety manages to find the right way to work with Joy so even though they set her up to be the antagonist they found a solution to help each other out. Also we see the parents’ Anxiety just to show that they other emotions exist in other people, just kept in the back.

Overall, I really enjoyed this film and I’m really hoping it does well because Disney and Pixar REALLY need to get back on track after the lousy releases recently; Lightyear was a disaster, and while I enjoyed Elemental it did not do so well unfortunately. I really do want the company to start putting out successful films again, so here’s hope for Inside Out 2.

I just picked up the Inside Out 2 Junior novel. And like I did with “TMNT: Mutant Mayhem”, “Wish” and “The Garfield Movie”, I won’t read it until I see the movie next Tuesday.

Out of all the characters to get announced for the game, I was not expecting the villain from Rescuers Down Under.

The raccoon pheromones really helped her out.

Max Goof is being added to Disney Heroes, we’ve all waited a long time for this to happen.

Judy and Kim are also getting new outfits, though with the announcement of Max I’m surprised the new outfit isn’t Goofy’s vacation clothes

From the cartoon thread:

A new trailer for Inside Out 2 released, and we get to see the new emotions:

SHE’S SO TINY AND CUTE!! I guess it’s perfect for Envy because she’s always looking up to others.

I bought four “Bill Nye” DVDs from Disney Movie Club.

I don’t have visitors, I live in the middle of the woods.

@Dex Stewart
Good luck trying to convince a visitor to not call it garbage like my parents does to every cardboard I collect on my drawers and my closet.

@Hollowfox, Always The Worst Person
It’s my home, I’ll use the space however I want!

@Beau Skunky
I’m just bitter about rabid physical media fanboys who wish death on streaming whenever things change in modern society (even if Best Buy no longer having physical media is a bad idea) and wants to hoard all media without any care for space in their homes.

@Hollowfox, Always The Worst Person
I think there should still be a place for home physical media, and I still enjoy streaming. It doesn’t mean all physical media owners are bad.

Streaming and DLC digital content has it’s issues, and flaws too, so no method of content is perfect.

@Dex Stewart
Yea, even so people will wish death on streaming in favor of wasting space on physical media.

I wish I had the power to force the physical media stans to watch an episode of SpongeBob Squarepants named “Sentimental Sponge”, whether they like it or not. Even though I am not against physical media.

But it’s a start for Sony and Disney to pull a Studio Distribution Services for physical media.

It’s happening.

Sony is working with Disney on home media from now on.
