    I finally got the chance to see this in theaters (sans Frozen short). Man I cannot tell you how much I loved it. It is not an unconventional film at all, and I was able to predict (nearly) everything that happened long before it came up with barely any prior knowledge of the story, but I'll be dammed if it didn't execute everything flawlessly. Just a beautiful, heartfelt, emotional film that had me crying. It probably helped that I was in that stage of sleep deprivation where my defenses were lower but my observational skills/cognition weren't. My new favorite movie of 2017 so far and one of my favorite Pixar films period.

    Man Pixar has really been back on their game since Inside Out, and I am loving it.

      Editing … "Man Pixar has really been back on their game since Inside Out" As someone who saw Cars 3 and the Good Dinosaur, imma say they still have a lot of cred to earn back, and I'm a huge defender of Finding Dory.

      Editing … I think watching the Frozen short made me enjoy Coco more. It helped put everything in perspective. Sure, Pixar doesn't hit it out of the park every time, but you want to see what real shit looks like? Well strap yourself in for 20 minutes of cringey comedy and disposable musical numbers. "DEAR GOD, PLEASE LET IT BE OVER, I SWEAR I'LL NEVER POOH POOH BRAVE EVER AGAIN!"

      Editing … I actually enjoyed Finding Dory more than Finding Nemo, which has always felt like one of their weaker films to me, though still good. I think I could relate to Dory more with her troubles than I could with Marlin or Nemo.

      Editing … I like Brave too. A really nice little mother-daughter story. Merida is fun, and it has some great humor, not to mention being absolutely gorgeous. There were a number of editing choices I might have changed, and a couple of plot holes, but nothing major.

      Editing … I haven't seen The Good Dinosaur or Cars 3 yet but I want to. Honestly while the quality has ranged from average to amazing I've liked every single one of their movies so far, and I've seen them all besides those two. They just work for me. Lasseter is their weakest director, though.

      Editing … Not a joke, it actually follows a road trip movie formula. It just doesn't have a car, because they didn't exist yet, because this is a movie about dinosaurs. But it's not a hiking trip movie. It's not just an adventure movie. These are specifically road trip movie tropes.
