HILARIOUS! INSIDE OUT 2 MOVIE REVIEW!
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
All right.
It looks like we're ready.
You're going to hold this up.
What?
You're going to hold this up.
Oh yeah.
Okay.
So go.
You go.
It's your show.
All right.
It's our show.
So we went to go and see a movie called Inside Out 2.
Two!
Sequel.
I barely remember anything from the first one.
I don't remember too much from the first one, and I was not super keen on it for the first 10 minutes.
But hold on, I also made somebody else in the theater not super keen on it in the first few minutes.
He had to use the washroom before we went in.
Yeah.
So the guy said our seats were like G14 and 13.
So I walk up.
I remembered that.
And in the theater too.
So I walk up and we're, there's the only two seats empty on that row.
So I obviously, I walked past like four couples who don't seem very happy about me.
Um, one guy's just staring at me.
I'm pretty sure he's giving me like a death stare, but yeah, he doesn't like me because I'm like, I don't know, walking too close to him.
And I sit down in the seat.
And the girl next to me also gives me a stink eye.
People just were not happy tonight, okay?
Well, we came in just at the end of the preview.
It was some Lion King live-action thing.
It was, right?
Yeah.
Pennsylvania!
Okay.
Oh, you're right.
I've got a drinking problem.
Alright, let's see.
You can use this as your ringtone if you want.
Good morning.
My iced tea.
I just want my iced tea.
Oh my gosh.
Actually, you know what?
If you try not snorting it, it can actually be a little easier.
No, I wasn't trying to snort it, actually.
Okay, so, go.
Sorry.
Get to your seat.
Yeah, I get to my seat.
And then I see this guy walk in and shiny head and stuff.
All right, can we switch to my perspective now?
Yeah, go ahead.
So I get in there.
Now you know what it's like when you're trying to find someone in a theater
who's not waving at you.
I was, I was waving at you.
Anyway, so what happens is you wait for the preview.
What the heck is this doing in the middle of the theater?
Smile!
Lord.
These construction workers.
What the heck?
There's not even any good construction.
They're just playing with us now.
There's a big pylon in the middle of the road.
All right, so I'm standing there now.
Of course, I just come in at the end of the line seeing preview thing.
And it's pitch black.
So then it's totally pitch black, right?
I'm waiting for it.
I'm like, come on, give some light!
I mean, if you had glasses or something, it'd reflect off the screen.
So what I'm hoping for, literally standing there, I'm like, please, for the love of all that's holy, for the love of Zeus, can we get a snow-capped mountain scene so that just get blinding white so that I can see?
Yeah.
Anyway, so I get kind of fixated because I think I see you.
And so I go lurching up the aisle- To a black girl, I might add!
Well, first of all- Apparently I look like a black girl!
First of all, first of all, I just wanted to point out that I began to think things might be slightly awry when I saw that she had a drink and a very startled look on her face, and I think what was pepper spray?
As I come lurching in, hey, how you doing?
So anyway, just, just before her father called 9-1-1, uh, I guess I backed out of that row.
And then finally, what, what you did do is you managed to move a finger.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
The entire aisle I was on was like laughing.
Cause I said, no, no, dad, next row.
I'm the white girl.
You didn't hear right.
I didn't hear.
I said it like twice, and the guy next to me apparently stopped hating me and was just straight up mocking me because he was laughing.
I'm like, next row, and then, did someone tell you?
Like, tap on your shoulder or something, it'll tell you, because that's what it looked like from my perspective.
I didn't hear or see anything.
I was in a blind chaos of the big giant nosed guy in the, in the, in the movie, which, oh, we're going to do spoilers too, by the way.
Obviously it's spoilers.
It's a movie review.
Um, but yeah, I thought the girl was like, trying to say to you, cause like further down the aisle.
I'm so sorry.
Don't, don't say where we are.
I just think I'm lost.
We're on this street.
Oh yeah, I'm going to turn around.
I got all thrown off by the pylon.
Let's go back.
Do you want me to GPS?
No, no, no.
I've got it from here.
Okay.
Don't worry about it.
Don't worry about a thing.
I will find our destination as easily as I found you in the barrel-inky depths of the theater.
My anxiety receptor is going.
The bad teeth anxiety is up.
All right.
Well, let's go down the train of thought here.
So we go the wrong way, we get lost in an alleyway, and then kidnappers get us.
Human trafficking.
Exactly.
And then we die due to the Spanish flu.
No, but the most awful thing is human traffickers are like, he's too old and gamey.
So we need to throw him back like a bad fish.
That's the plan.
Exactly.
Then you go looking for me in the theater.
So anyway, we got there and I love it when this timing goes well.
We're not exposed to the bad movies that we see coming.
When was the last time, when was the last time you saw a preview that you liked or thought was, oh, this is going to be a great movie?
I thought The Watchers, but then I watched a review of it and it said it was pretty crap.
So.
I just can't see.
No.
I can't see a movie about guys spending two hours checking the time.
Okay.
Can't do it.
I'm actually about to jump out the window.
Where are we?
Turn right.
Ah, there we go.
That feels about right.
Okay.
Oh yes.
There we go.
We ate there once.
I remember that.
That fish sucked.
Oh, I liked it.
I literally, it was a foil.
I'm just going to wait here until it opens.
All right.
It was just an inch in oil.
Delightful.
I felt very, very lubricated.
All right.
That's not something you want.
So, uh, well if you wait till you're over 50, see?
So anyway.
I don't remember much of the first movie, other than there was a comedian from the Jon Stewart show who plays the angry guy.
And that Joy reminds us of Mom.
Anyway, so that's about all I've got.
So, and I was not expecting a massive amount from this movie, but I gotta tell you, I think this is one of the best movies I've seen in I can't even tell you how long.
We've seen some duds, man.
Yeah, man, the last two.
We've gone to a bunch of movies.
We saw the Planet of the Apes one.
Oh my gosh, I was dying.
We were the only people in the entire theater.
We really are.
And that's not a good sign.
There was nobody else there.
Like, literally empty.
And I was, like, filming it.
Like, what is this?
No, I actually think it was full of people of ghosts.
Of people who died watching it.
Died watching it.
And died happy.
I nearly died watching it.
Yeah.
And died happy that they didn't have to watch the end.
So the general premise of the movie is that there are these emotions in this girl, Riley, and each one of the emotions has a sort of characteristic, obviously, a personality or a particular... The core five, joy, anger, fear, sad, and disgust.
Disgust, right?
Yeah.
Right.
So anyway, so then, okay, so it's very much a...
Wait, am I going one way or the other?
Straight.
Straight, yeah.
No, no, it's right.
Wait, no, right, right, right.
So it's, at the beginning I was like, okay, this feels like a rehash.
Like, what are they going to do that's different?
Because, you know, these conflicts between the emotions and, and like the idea in general, and I've talked about it on my show.
My emotions are constantly at war.
Yeah.
Like, no, that your emotions can sometimes be in conflict, but in general, they're all there to help and you shouldn't repress.
And if the emotions, you should accept them, but, but moderate them.
Right.
So, you know, like friends, so that's the range.
So I was like, at the beginning, I was like, okay, this feels like a bit of a rehash because she's got these friends and she plays hockey and blah, blah, blah.
All right.
And I didn't, I don't particularly care about the sports stuff because the sports stuff is always kind of annoying to me.
You're playing sports.
It's different, but.
What do you mean, if you're playing sports?
Like when you're watching sports.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
No, I like sports.
I just don't... The problem is the sports team stuff.
It's all like, oh, I want this team to win.
And it's like, but if you were on the other side, you'd want the other team to win.
It's not good versus evil.
It's just, I don't know, luck and competence versus luck and competence.
So, and I've never particularly found the sports stuff too gripping.
Right, right.
So I was like, okay, so there's going to be some sports team, but then...
There was a blinking light and the entire movie changed for me.
I remember I saw this in the trailer, the construction team.
And I saw, I thought it was a really bad character design anxiety.
What I saw in the trailer, but as the show progressed, I thought it was, it got a lot better or it really fit it.
I thought, I thought it was just, they were going a bit overboard with some of the new emotions, like exaggerating too many traits, but I changed my mind.
Well, I mean, you're used to such moderate emotions in your family, so I can understand.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Mom, what can I tell you?
Mom, it's either queening or nothing.
I will actually say that I was really moved by this in a way that I haven't been since Tangled.
What?
No, Tangled I found very moving when Flynn Rider went through his death scene.
Anyway.
Flynn Rider dies?
Yeah, and then she brings him back.
Oh, more spoilers!
She brings him back with her hair.
Come on, if someone hasn't seen Tangled, I think it's too late.
Right, right.
So anyway, the characters are all trying to sleep and there's this restlessness and then there's this little button that's flashing and it's called... Puberty!
Now I hope myself to go through puberty someday.
Maybe one day.
I'm just a very, very unhealthy child.
There's always hope.
But I would, so when the puberty thing happened and I realized what They made the sequel for, which is not to retread the original, but to a whole new phase, a whole new chapter, a whole new complexity.
I was like, okay, I'm settling in for a solid story here.
And boy, was I ever not disappointed by how good the story was and how clever and how funny and how insightful it was.
They really did a good job on, I think.
Humor was great.
And the complexity and depth was amazing.
So the fact that everything is being replaced, and it's true because I remember when I was a kid, my emotions were more simple.
And then when you hit puberty, your emotions get much more nuanced, complex, and you get new stuff.
And so I thought that they just modeled that really well.
I think when I was a kid, I had a very warped perception of like myself and reality kind of, just like the world as a whole.
And I think that was partly from the simplicity, but I think when I got older, I got more of like a third person perspective view on things.
Can you break that out a bit more?
No.
Okay.
No, I mean, well, well explained.
I'm baffled.
Okay.
I mean, like, It just didn't really, like, I only saw things from my perspective when I was younger, so, like, there wasn't much... I don't know if the word is out-thinking, which is not really the word I'm looking for, but... Oh, like an out-group thinking, like thinking of the other person and whether you fit in and stuff like that?
Yeah, I didn't really think, you know, whether I fit in or cared about stuff like that, but I think as I got older, and this is probably kind of what they were saying in the movie, although I think they may have overdone it a little bit, which we'll get to later, but there was definitely a bit of, like, As I got older, I think I have a bit more of a third-person perspective on things now, and I can see things more objectively rather than just, like, front myself.
Right.
And, of course, when you were younger, you didn't as much care about socializing.
Now, of course, your peer group is very important, and that's exactly right, because your peer group is your future, and your parents are your past.
So I think that that movie, and I just, so she gets all of these, they just come in and wreck the simple, like five buttons Xbox controller for emotions.
They didn't even need to, like what was the point?
Well, they needed to replace the simple controls with the more complex ones, right?
Yeah, but like they just started destroying stuff.
Well, that's puberty, man.
What can I tell you?
My skin was destroyed.
And then, so then I thought it was very interesting that the simple emotions Get bottled up and thrown into a vault.
I love how excited he was, like, that's such a great idea!
He's like, you can't bottle us up!
Good idea!
That was really funny.
And the more complex and socially paranoid emotions, they kind of kick in, right?
And it's very powerful.
And so I thought that was great.
The fact that she woke up with... I mean... With a pimple, that was hilarious.
She woke up with a pimple.
It never left.
It's just one of those pimples that doesn't leave.
Oh yeah, my head went all this through the Australia tour, immortalized forever.
So I thought she woke up with a pimple and then...
Um, the emotions, right?
The high and low and up and down emotions that everything, you just touch it a little bit and it's like, I thought that was very funny and well done.
And I also liked, of course, how they jumped into other people's emotions as well.
Like the mom's like, oh, here's the next 10 years.
I love when they do that.
That was, that was one of the funniest things.
I think they did more in the first movie, but that was still cool.
So, I thought that they really got well, the past and the future, right?
So her friends are moving away.
I can't remember the names.
It was the black girl and the Hispanic girl, right?
I think Asian.
Asian.
So her friends were moving away.
So she had to find new friends.
I mean, that's an absolute, right?
You have to find new friends when your friends are moving away.
Yeah.
She didn't have to be so hostile about it, but when anxiety was like, no, we need new friends, this is our next four years, I thought, yeah, this is great.
And I was kind of irritated at the other emotions or characters, whatever you want to call them, because I was like, no, forget the old friends.
Honestly, you're not going to see them again after this next three days.
So, you know, say your goodbyes.
Maybe don't be harsh about it.
You know what?
Everybody says, oh, we'll still be able to hang out.
No, you won't.
It doesn't happen.
Well, that's like, you know, the people who break up and are like, we can still be friends.
You can be friendly to each other, but you can't really just, you can't be friends.
Cause friends tell each other about their dates.
And you just like, if you broke up with someone, you're not going to say, Hey, I met this new girl.
She's great.
So I thought that, um, The puberty thing was like the angle that was needed.
And then she's like, oh, well, there are my old friends.
And her old friends were kind of goofy and immature.
And that's part of just, you don't want to get stuck in a social group that keeps you stuck from moving forward in life.
And her friends were jeopardizing that because the older girls were cooler and the younger friends were making all these goofy faces and so on, which can be fun, but you don't want that to interfere with the forward moving of your social group.
When you hit high school and I mean, I don't have too much experience, because I didn't do middle school, and I only got to high school when I joined, like, the homeschooling community.
Oh, yeah.
But when I hit high school, you definitely can't... you have to move on from your childhood.
It's just how it has to work, because when you join, you're, like, the youngest kid there, especially for me.
My birthday's, like, the end of the year.
Yeah.
I know earlier... I think I was the youngest kid in my entire group.
Your friend group?
You mean now?
No, I was when I first joined.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
All of high school, I was, like, the youngest kid, so you really have to...
Go ahead and kind of boost, like, boost your maturity almost.
You do!
Now, if you've... Sorry, you go ahead.
Just because older kids are... Even if you're not the youngest, maybe you're the oldest in your grade, there's still three grades ahead of you where there's older kids.
Yeah.
You really have to boost your maturity.
That's what I'm saying.
And everyone's trying to... It's drawn to the older kids because they're cooler.
And if you have friends that you've had for like five or seven years, you just have a younger mindset with them and it's kind of hard to move forward.
Yeah.
So, you know, I've sort of gone through a process every, I don't know, eight to ten years.
I basically shrug off friendships and get new ones.
So I thought that that challenge of, you know, wanting to please your parents, which I know is every child's obsession.
Like, you want to please your parents, and you want to be friends with your friends, but there's also cool new friends.
Sorry, I want to interrupt.
I would say one thing I have not noticed in a lot of, like really any teenager I know, is the want to please their parents.
Maybe it's more like not want to disappoint their parents or not want to upset them too much.
That's I think more childhood.
But what I've seen at least a lot with teenagers is... Parents play no part in their calculations whatsoever.
They play a big part.
They want to be like revolutionary.
Oh, rebellin'.
Oh, okay.
That's one thing I'm gonna become as a writer.
Yeah, so the kids will start writing.
I mean, that's what you did.
You became a philosopher and your mom said, like, don't think.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I mean, like, you must understand!
That's different.
It's totally different.
Back in my day.
Back in your day.
The dinosaurs were very different back in my day.
Back in your day.
There's a quick little thing I wanted to mention.
Oh no.
My history class was teaching the 1980s.
Now, but it wasn't in the ancient history.
Um, it was right after.
Right after.
It's like the Mesopotamian empire.
And then guys with funny hair.
And this thing wasn't even, it's not even like it was written this year.
I think the course was made like, Maybe five or ten years ago?
Yeah, we don't really have to go into the details.
I mean, half a century?
Wow.
The backstory, yeah.
It is really funny.
And they were teaching 1980s.
Imagine, like, 1960s.
No, I'm kidding.
Well, no, it's funny because I was doing a call, a private call the other day, and somebody was like, yeah, my mom's 52.
I'm like, 52?
That's kind of, oh.
Oh.
So, the puberty thing I thought was great.
Now, I thought, I mean, there was lots of great funny bits.
The vault stuff?
Absolutely the best.
I clearly have a thing for vaults.
I love Fallout.
I felt this movie was re-vaulting.
Oh, that was the sound of your soul leaving your nose.
I just got stabbed.
Yeah, yeah.
Stabbing would be quicker, wouldn't it?
It'd hurt less.
The stomach with the acid.
It'd still be better than this.
Alright, go on.
I honestly just thought it was... I loved it.
Oh, look at that moon button.
Oh, it's orange.
Is that orange?
It's behind the cloud there, right?
Oh.
Do you see?
Wow, that's bright.
It's a big cloud and it's just streaming over the top, right?
Yeah.
That's lovely.
Sorry, go ahead.
No, I thought it was so funny when they go in and this is a video game character.
I thought it was from Legend of Zelda, like the older ones, because I don't know the game too well.
I know enough about it.
I mean, hey, I know every lore about everything because that's me.
I don't, but I know a bit about Legend of Zelda and I've seen some of the characters and they're just like, yo!
And I'm like, nah, they don't have purple hair.
Great.
Where do I go from here?
Uh, turn right.
Yes?
I'm leading us astray, aren't I?
Alright.
Eh.
They believe you.
Worst comes to- yeah, turn right.
I'm sorry, left.
I meant left.
What?
Left?
No, really?
Yeah, I meant left.
I really feel like I should know this.
I may have over-relied on GPS a tiny bit.
We are going the right way.
Alright, so the video game character was hilarious.
Did you notice?
Of course you did, right?
He was even pixelated.
Yes, I did.
Brilliant.
That's when I thought about the graphics and when he ran into the wall!
Rolled into it?
No, ran into it!
When he was trying to exit the door, he, he... Oh yeah, he glitched, right?
He did like a full skate 3 glitch thing, right?
That's like having a crush on a video game character, which is what Riley had.
Yeah, yeah.
And it was literally the most stereotypical, like... Although he was fantastic!
...teen girl thing I've ever heard in my life.
I am a fighter with a heart.
I just did terrible history.
I thought it was, yeah, really well done.
I cannot... I'm a hero.
Yeah, and I loved it.
You almost died when he did that, because we went bowling the other day.
So when he does the roll and he just rolls right past the, um, the cops and they're like, what is he doing?
I am a, I am a brave warrior with a weak attack.
I thought that was it.
Yeah.
I think that was just brilliant.
No, I loved that.
That was honestly, I think they could have made a whole movie about it and I would have watched it.
I was desperate for him to come back.
I know he should have come back at the end.
Especially the, like the giant sword that he looks too weak to wield was just fantastic.
I can calm you with my roll attack.
Like they went around his back.
Oh yeah yeah yeah, I like that.
He's like a ringworm.
He should have been Riley Salvation in the end.
Like when anxiety was going crazy, he should have come in and been like,
I am the hero!
I could come you with my roll attack.
I shall attack.
Yeah, I thought that was, that was really, and we never did find out her deep dark secret.
Nope.
Um, I thought the dog was funny.
Uh, because you know, like talking to the audience, and then you see a sad shadow against the wall.
Like, all of the jokes were so good.
Yeah, they were, all the jokes were just so, so good and, and thoughtful and, and man, they must have just racked their brains.
Other, other jokes that, that sound like a OneNote joke, but were really good.
So there was the, um, sarcasm.
Yeah.
Like that was great.
Then the fact that they call across, uh, you look like the greatest construction worker.
You look like the greatest.
Yeah.
You look like the greatest construction worker ever.
I liked the brainstorm with all the ideas.
I just, I felt myself die a little.
Me too, actually. I think I need to stop.
You did too, right?
That's worse than like the Jene brain rot.
Uh, I liked the, uh, the brainstorm with all the ideas.
That was really good.
That was really good.
That was funny.
I liked the idea, you know, just sort of philosophically speaking,
I liked the idea that when she's going to get the coach's book,
that morality has something to do with sadness.
Like you're sad at what you've lowered yourself to or what you've become or something like that.
That's rage.
What am I doing?
Right, right.
No, I mean, because for some people that is what morality comes to.
Can you do me a favor with the GPS?
Yeah.
You sure?
Yeah.
Alright.
You were right yesterday.
I'm sure you're right today.
Alright.
So... I think, yeah, well, you know what?
We'll just run out of gas and just sleep there.
Oh, look!
Yes!
Oh, I know!
I'm in town!
I know!
Okay.
Alright.
I do not know what that was.
Um, and now I thought that the storm of anxiety and, you know, like you can't define who she is, like all of that kind of stuff.
I thought so good.
Yeah.
So good.
Trust me.
It's not just teenager.
I love your pants.
And then inside, I'm like, those pants are ugly.
Oh, like with other people.
Right.
Right.
Was that with just mom or just kidding?
No, I was with my friends.
They were, you know, thinking back, they're cool pants, but I just kind of blurred it out because I wanted her to like me.
And it was like, I mean, we're okay friends.
The part that gave me absolutely existential spinal column agony was the fact that she blurted out she was from the wrong place and had to live with it for the next four years.
Yep.
I'm from any town, any place, or whatever she said, right?
So that to me is, I don't know if it's a British thing or something, but that to me is like a worse than nightmare.
No, sorry.
I'm actually from Mississippi.
I'm not from Michigan.
I just said that because I was nervous.
No, she didn't say it.
The other girl misheard and thought it was Michigan.
She didn't say she was from.
Oh, she didn't say she was from Michigan.
The other girl misheard it or got it, missed it.
So it's kind of like, uh, that there's this sort of joke in the corporate world that, you know, somebody misinterpreted your name as Bob, like four years ago.
And you just, it's way too late.
Yeah.
Just, you just have to change your name.
Or like that woman who's like, she made a mistake in boarding her flight.
Now she's in Poland starting a new life.
Like she can't go back.
Yeah.
It's just, it's happened.
Yeah, so I very much understand where that agony comes from, and it's like, for me it's like, do it now because it just gets worse from here.
Sorry, go ahead.
My agony right now, I have like the worst hiccups coming on because I drank my tea too fast, it clearly failed, and now I'm recording.
And apparently part of it through your eardrum.
Now I'm going to be hiccuping for the rest of this recording.
Excellent, excellent.
Yeah, can we talk about voice cracks?
They could have done something with that.
I have been plagued by voice cracks, okay?
Like, my entire last, like, three years, they haven't gotten better.
You're really milking that.
My voice cracks are worse than my male teenage friends.
I thought you were just yodeling.
They mock me for my voice cracks.
They should be the other way around.
I will say that sometimes I will provoke you to great passion just to listen to the yodels.
Yeah, and when I want to do it, I can't.
That's the issue.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
It's involuntary, definitely.
Yeah, it's involuntary.
Definitely.
And I'll try and say something serious and my voice just go, haha!
And it's like, okay.
So when I was, I liked this girl when I was about your age, and I had, you know, my voice is sort of somewhat deep-ish, but But I really wanted to sound mature, so I spent the whole morning walking down here.
And basically, I think the guy thought that God was calling.
I'd like to speak to Kathy, please.
Are you my conscience?
So anyway, but because I... Bro, that's Kathy.
He has some shady friends.
That's right.
Are you a drug dealer?
Does she owe you money?
No, I'm from the sewers.
That's right.
I'm from the future.
Plankton.
What?
I don't know.
A whale?
Excellent, excellent.
I was thinking like brain-eating amoeba.
What?
Okay, I'm not brain-eating amoeba.
Was that amoeba?
Amoeba?
Okay, anyway!
So I was working on my deep Barry White voice the whole time, but then it cracked and just happened.
Like from absolute depths to absolute heights instantaneously.
I did this, you know, like, girl, I don't know, I have like, not an, there's like some girls I know that just have a high-pitched voice.
I'm just not one of those.
I'm the girl at bowling!
What?
Oh my gosh, yeah, okay.
Helium.
Just a lot of girls.
I've definitely got, like, the deepest voice out of the girls I know, which is not a bad thing, but when I was, like, probably a year ago, I thought, oh, well, maybe I should talk in a higher-pitched voice.
Oh, did you try that?
I did.
Do you know what happened?
You cracked more?
Yeah.
Constantly.
Oh, that's why there was a beluga flopping down the street.
You were calling out to it in some fashion.
I was talking... You reversed Elizabeth Holmes.
Honestly, but I was talking like this kind of in a higher-pitched voice.
Hi, I'm Prezi!
I wasn't like this!
I was like this, but it was kind of like, you know...
I sounded like those freaking aesthetic TikTok 20-year-olds who kind of like went to college for an art degree and realized their life is over and now they make TikToks about their crocheting and their drinks and their life at the Twitter thing before they got fired.
So I realized that this wasn't going to be my life and I had to revert to my old normal voice.
You can't do that your whole life.
It gives you a sore throat.
But I must say that it really doesn't match your personality too well.
It'd be like me not having an hysterian person-like voice.
Oh, be careful out behind.
I fart.
So, I thought, to be honest, I thought it was quite moving at the end when they're trying to control the anxiety and she's basically having a panic attack, right?
Yeah.
And I just thought it was really good, the gentleness, they really, because the movie's kind of manic, obviously, and the stillness.
I like it when Fierce says, I preferred it in the jar.
I wish I was back in the jar or something.
Like, I thought that just, they gave each character... Oh, that's me when I go to, like, if I remember an event that's really lame.
Like, I should've stayed... Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, so I thought it was really good.
I thought the ending... Oh, gosh.
Okay, it was very clear what happened because she smiled and she looked excited.
But you were like, you were like, they didn't tell us and I heard the people next to you that gave me the stink eye laugh.
Oh yeah, because I had the guy who was just the murmurer.
Oh yeah, don't do that.
Oh no, that's a bad idea.
Oh, that was funny.
You have a different version.
I got side titles!
What you do is when something happens, you go... Well, also I grip your leg when there's something embarrassing to the point where you lose blood flow.
I think I genuinely have like...
Three toes fell off for lack of blood flow.
Only three?
Only three.
That's progress, I would say.
No, so, actually, you know what?
Oh, never mind.
Excuse me?
No, I think it's probably best I don't continue that thought.
Alright, so.
Is it fair for the guy who wrote the novel The Present to complain that the ending was not fleshed out?
Let me tell you... But you don't even find out, yeah?
And we were like, come on, you can't do this.
You're like, yeah I can.
I'm like, but don't because that sucks.
And you were like, no.
I'm like, okay.
So maybe...
Maybe we shouldn't do that.
Yeah.
Okay.
Delete.
Delete.
Quick edit.
Delete, delete, delete, deet, deet.
All right.
Uh, so I, I would highly recommend this.
I think there's a lot of stuff to talk about.
I, I also liked how the personality wasn't just one thing or the other thing, but then became a complexity of things where you have, yes, I'm courageous.
Yes.
Sometimes I'm afraid he can't like all the things that are just part of life.
No, I thought that was really good.
And how the joy at the beginning, and I remember thinking this at the beginning, like when she was saying, well, we'll just take all the bad memories and we'll just flush them away to the unconscious or whatever.
And I'm like, I don't think that's right.
No, it's right.
Is this right?
That's right.
Otherwise you're up at night.
Well, it's all right.
You're still in the middle of the movie.
Uh, personality wise.
Uh, but no, I, so when, excuse me, I'm like, what do you mean middle of the movie?
I'm in my junior year now.
Yeah.
She's like barely a freshman.
Yeah, that's true.
That was so me with the music taste though.
Uh, you can't say anything about the music taste, right?
I can't say anything about my music taste.
And there was also some negative comment about her father's ancient rock and roll.
That was just appalling.
Oh, don't even get me started on the whole argument I had with people about the Beatles the other day.
Oh yeah, that was something.
That was mean.
Not on your part, but yeah.
Not me.
I was saying like, people listen to the Beatles, no they don't like you.
You?
Like who?
You?
Or like, people who wish they were born in 1974?
So I thought that when Joy also realized that she'd been controlling Riley's personality by flushing the bad memories, Also, when they're on those memories, I couldn't help but thinking of that little touch game we played on the planes from time to time.
Cause they, or like, what was it?
Magnet balls or something?
Yeah.
Yeah.
It was really, it was really, that was pretty kind of neat.
So I thought it was very clever, very funny.
Um, and they really do create a vivid world.
I liked the fact that the father went back to the game every time, every time.
Yeah.
It sounds about right.
So I, I thought it was really, really well done.
And also I just like to see a functional family, you know, cause that's kind of rare these days.
Like everyone has this.
I don't know, weirdness and darkness and stuff like that.
It's a big secret.
It's not functional.
That's the big secret, yes.
So I thought it was just really good and really clever, very funny.
I really, really had a big smile on my face throughout like half the movie.
Me too.
I was like looking at myself and I'm thinking, wow, I'm smiling.
What the heck?
And then I like stopped smiling.
Wait, I did spend a fair amount of the movie there glaring at you, didn't I?
Yes, because every time something happened, it was literally right on my face, like two inches away from my nostril.
So, no, I thought it was a great, great movie.
I highly recommend it.
I want them to make a tri-tri-triquel?
A third one?
A triquel.
A trilogy?
A triquel.
Okay.
Um, where they have her as like a senior in high school.
Oh yeah yeah yeah.
Because that would- I want to see- No, the dating and the boys.
That's what I want.
I was expecting boys.
When I first saw the photo of Riley, or not Riley, of that girl she liked, or wanted, not liked, but wanted to be friends with, on the thing, I thought it was a guy.
Oh, yeah, yeah.
And I was like, oh, there we go.
But no.
So what they need to do is they need to make a triquel Nuclear!
No, I'm kidding.
A tree hole!
Where she's, like, later in high school when the dating comes in and then, like, more school stuff and, like, more embarrassments.
I needed to be around long enough for nostalgia to come back, because that was a great running joke.
Dude, I don't understand why nostalgia comes in when they're in their 20s.
I had nostalgia when I was, like, 12, okay?
Nostalgia comes in early.
My turn.
I had nostalgia before I had boredom.
I will survive!
I don't know what's going on.
I just navigate.
Oh, you suck.
And this is why I don't drink anything at the theaters, because people will give me CPR.
Not in the way that I like.
Sorry, what?
Sorry.
Appropriate.
All right.
So, I would highly recommend the movie.
I will say this is my dying words, apparently.
Go see Inside Out 2.
Inside Out.
Oh, you know what?
My inside is now out on the windshield.
