DEAR. GOD. I was at Chick-Fil-A earlier today, and there was an older couple in line behind me who were talking about movies. And the guy said he didn't want to take their grandkids (I assume) to see Coco, it "glorifies immigration." It took everything in me to not turn around and actually tell him he was an idiot. God, I hate the ignorance in this country these days with the orange one in power. 

WHERE WAS THIS?

 

GIMME THE LOCATION!

 

I WANNA FIGHT.

BITCHES WANNA CALL MY PEOPLE IMMIGRANTS.

BITCHES, KNOW YA FUCKING HISTORY.

I AM TIRED OF RACISTS.

 

FUCK THE KUMBAYA SHIII, THEY DESERVE A DRAGGING.

It didn't have to be a secret. I just have better things to do with my life than continually go on here and say positive things about a movie.

 

If there were anything that could've used more positivity on this forum it was this movie.

Quote

• Lasseter was not allowed to attend film wrap parties without handlers to prevent him from behaving inappropriately toward women.
• Lasseter had an “obsession” with the young actresses who portrayed the Disney Fairies (the product line inspired by Tinkerbell), and he insisted that the actresses be flown to New York for an event. A former Pixar executive was assigned to be an escort when Lasseter took the actresses to drink and party. The exec observed that Lasseter would hug the fairies for extended periods of time and make other kinds of physical contact. “He was inappropriate with the fairies,” the person told Deadline. “We had to have someone make sure he wasn’t alone with them.”

Yeah, Lasseter's not coming back.

Yeah. It’s all but confirmed. Musker and Clements take over WDAS and either Pete Docter or Darla K Anderson takes over Pixar.

Where did you hear that about Musker and Clements?

Those are just suggestions, the only ones capable of handling WDAS other than them imo is Jennifer Lee and Rich Moore. Docter is the only rumor.

Well we all can finally agree and put it to rest: Walt Disney wasn't the worst boss Disney ever had.

So nobody will take over the Disney cartoon czar role from Lasseter?

I don't think anyone's going to do the dual WDAS/Pixar role that he did.

[AniNate]

They may have already appointed successors and just aren't making anything public until after the Oscars as rumored. But as I said I'm not sure Docter is charismatic and political enough for such a role. Lee and Anderson would seem to be solid picks since aside from making it look like they're serious about promoting female leadership they both seem to have more extroverted and authoritative personalities.

Not you and me aligning for once. Truce, hun?

 

I must be missing something. Truce for what?

[The Futurist]

Lasseter ain't going anywhere.

Have you heard of telecomunication devices ?

[eXtacy]

Its IMDB score of 9.0 is the highest I have seen in a long while and given its a original film with no fan-base its even more impressive.

[DAJK]

God this film was incredible. We are no longer in the age of "Pixar's return to form". They're back. They are back as good as they ever were!

[The Futurist]

So many rules in this movie, they spent  half the movie explaining them.

We'll see what we're saying once Toy Story 4 comes out.

[AniNate]

They're back in the sense that much of their veteran leadership has been. Have to wait and see if any of their more nascent filmmakers rise up to their level. TS4 and the Scanlon project will be indicators in that regard.
