What’s their problem?

Inside Out 2 was a dead cat bounce.

>>149128103 (OP)
Pixar has been bad for years

>>149128103 (OP)
Inside out 2 was the odd one out, not a sign of renaissance

Inside Out 2 was riding on a legacy IP. This just feeds into the idea that Pixar can no longer make new things and can only coast on its popular IPs, up until they run those in the ground as well.

>>149128208
So, why DON'T we go out and support new ideas?

>>149128208
it's pretty weird to claim this is anything to do with pixar and not the natural state of all movie production. original IPs are massive risks unless they're very cheap to produce.

One good movie doing well isn't going to negate all the bad movies that bombed. Especially if they are as expensive as Elio is at $300. This is why Deadpool & Wolverine did not save Phases 4 & 5 of the MCU. You can't survive on just one good movie. You need several good movies doing well.

>>149128235
Because their new ideas are shit? Nobody likes that beanmouth shit.
>but then they'll just make sequels
Yeah, and that's why Pixar is dying. They'll eventually just crash all of their IPs with idiotic stories or decisions.

>>149128235
Because that's risky money.
>as opposed to doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results?
You really don't understand managers, do you?

>>149128103 (OP)
IO2 was shit

People were already crying about the death of Pixar in the 2010s when they were doing nothing but sequels and Brave sucked.

>>149128103 (OP)
Why the fuck does a PIXAR character have bean mouth?

>>149128235

>>149128157
Elemental also did better than expected

>>149128235
new ideas aren't necessarily good ideas

>>149128235
Because we want to support GOOD ideas.

>>149128352
Pixar has been aping Steven Universe's art style since Turning Red

>>149128103 (OP)
pixar has been terrible for years, perhaps decades
inside out 2 was trite shit

>>149128415
Both Inside Out 2 and Turning Red did that annoying "I have an embarrassing anime crush, I'm such a weird girl..." crap.

>>149128400
I just looked at the Pixar timeline and literally everything that came out since Lasseter left has been garbage and the last couple years/films just before that weren't great either. It seems like everything since The Good Dinosaur has been one increasing failure after another.

>>149128103 (OP)
>What’s their problem?
Disney+

Why the fuck would I bother to see a lukewarm Pixar movie when I can just wait 3 months and see it on a streaming platform I'm already paying for? In my nice comfy home theater setup with popcorn that doesn't cost $12 per bag. Pixar movies just aren't spectacles enough to warrant the theater experience.

>Bean mouth
:(
>Bean mouth 3D
Also :( you stupid faggot.

>>149128360
Aww, that adorable face! Very good movie! Thank you.

>Buy an 8 oz popcorn machine, big bag of popcorn kernels, flavocal butter salt, five gallon jug of coconut oil, and one gallon of butter topping with a pump
>Cost $200 for everything
>Pays itself off if used 10 times with theater prices
>Been using it a couple times a week for two years and still have half my supplies

Honestly, popcorn isn't obscenely overpriced. It's outright financial rape.

>>149129632
I have a popcorn popper (just one of those stir-crazy things), should I be buying coconut oil for it?

>>149128235
>support new things for being new
I support good things. It doesn't matter if it's new if it is bad.

>>149129784
Coconut oil is a placebo, just make sure you specifically get flavacol if you want movie theatre flavor popcorn.

>>149128103 (OP)
Hey that's /co/ thing! They're copying us!

>>149129805
good to know, I'll look into it.

>>149128103 (OP)
>forget Inside Out 2 happened
Inside Out is bad though

>>149129784
Coconut oil has the least amount of flavor altering effect in my opinion

However,>>149129805 is 100% correct in that flavocal will be the absolute biggest factor in getting movie theater popcorn flavor.

>>149128152
this

>>149128235
(non-)Trauma dumping by faggots with bad art direction is very old and tired.

So we'll just have sequels forever, huh

>>149129784
Coconut oil basically tricks you into thinking you've made a difference. I fell for that meme for years and kept assuming I was just doing something wrong, it barely changed anything. What you need is flavocal, if you want something that tastes like movie theater popcorn, that's your way in.

Blood in the water, simple as.

>>149128103 (OP)
People have always been so cruel and shitty towards Pixar. Even during the Golden Age, they would always try to compare the newest film to Toy Story and The Incredibles
