Da Vinci Posted June 24 Author Posted June 24 2 hours ago, illia said: Because Inside Out 1 was so huge too 2 hours ago, kimberly said: it appeals to both children and young adults who fell in love with the first movie. when I went to see it, my theater had mostly adults watching it. 1 hour ago, Kylizzle said: The last big Pixar sequel (Toy Story 4) and WDAS sequel (Frozen 2) both made a billion. 57 minutes ago, Daddy said: Because the first one is a beloved classic. That's like asking why Toy Story 2 was huge. Or finding Dory. That's the thing, I had no idea Inside Out 1 was THAT big let alone bigger than Toy Story, Nemo, Frozen, Incredibles, even Zootopia and Moana felt bigger but idk if those 2 sequels will smash as hard This is literally on track to make $1.5B or more with very good holds and is performing like a pre-pandemic Marvel/Star Wars movie worldwide, stronger than Toy Story/Frozen/etc. and those were actual phenomenons

CottageHore Posted June 24 Posted June 24 (edited) Because it's literally genius. I work as a child psychotherapist and the first movie perfectly illustrates how emotions affect our behaviors and how feeling all our feelings is necessary in order to be a whole, regulated person. They even illustrate how our emotions are at the crux of all our most cherished childhood memories and lifelong memories in a way that's engaging and comprehensible to children. I haven't seen the second one yet, but I'm sure it's just as good. And as someone who's worked closely with children for almost 10 years, Inside Out is MASSIVE. It's one of the most referenced and ubiquitous movies across the child demographic and every new generation of kids will continue to find value in its message. Inside Out HAS been that girl and she continues to be that girl! Edited June 24 by CottageHore 6
GentleEarthquake Posted June 24 Posted June 24 It has a bulletproof theme that appeals to most people
Migs30283 Posted June 25 Posted June 25 I can see Inside Out 2 going down in history as this decade's Shrek 2 in terms of box office juggernauts, which is fascinating because that film came out 20 years ago. Pixar classic masterpiece. Best Pixar sequel since Toy Story 3.

Rino Posted June 25 Posted June 25 (edited) because Kill Bill is the best movie of all time, and people saw that Uma's daughter was voicing Anxiety so they decided to check IO2 real quick Edited June 25 by Rino
Pink Ranger Posted June 25 Posted June 25 Because no matter how hard people try to cancel Disney they will always come out on top with Deadpool coming soon as well it seems Disney will have the top 2 biggest movies the year and win the studio box office of 2024.
Marianah Adkins Posted June 25 Posted June 25 Inside Out the first movie was a huge hit and a beloved classic. Inside Out 2 is also a great movie. Goodwill from first movie + great second movie= recipe for blockbuster. What made Inside Out franchise the success it became was the concept itself. A very original concept that Pixar pulled off flawlessly.
UnusualBoy Posted June 25 Posted June 25 The movie touches topics that adults can relate too, kids may love it because of the graphics and designs but us, the adults will for sure relate to what's mentioned there.
Kevin2803 Posted June 25 Posted June 25 21 hours ago, AbeHicks said: Finally there was something to watch. We can sit here and talk about the decline of cinema going tendencies but movies like Lisa Frankeinstein, IF, The Fall Guy, Quiet Place 3, Kinds of Kindness etc. did not need to be made. No one is asking for these. Of course they flop. This is such a horrible take. You can't compare Yorgos Lanthimos work or some niché horror comedies to a Disney Pixar sequel with an established fanbase. Of course it will make more money, because it's a mainstream family movie that speaks to all age groups. But saying these other movies didn't need to be made is BS, especially when all of these, except for "A Quiet Place" and "The Fall Guy" (although it's only loosely based on a 80s TV show), are original movies. We need them, movies are an art form and should not be about making money, otherwise we will only have sequels and remakes for the rest of our lives, which is already a problem now. And there already were a lot of movies "worth" to be seen on the big screen this year, like "The First Omen", "Civil War", "Dune: Part Two", "Challengers", "Monkey Man", "Love Lies Bleeding", "I Saw the TV Glow", just to name a few. Sure, not all of them made billions but that shouldn't be a reason for a movie not to be made.

But don't tell me The Fall Guy was made with passion and love for art. It was made to make money. And it failed at that. A quiet place 3 is the same, although that might succeed in the end.

I didn't necessarily mean that specifically in relation to the films listed, but in general. And yes, movies like "The Fall Guy" are obviously made with the thought in mind to make money, but i don't think that always means that there is no passion behind it. In the end, it's mostly the studios that want to make money. There are so many examples were directors were very passionate about their movies and their vision and studios interfered because they thought the final film wasn't commercial enough.

I get where you are coming from I do watch many indie movies which were obviously made not to make money but to tell the story the director wanted to tell. About those I wouldn't say they should not have been made. About lisa frankeinstein, which was created just for profit, I would not say the same.
