    Probably not as good as you say, but not as bad as people think of it.
    What I wonder is, how does this movie cost more than Spiderverse andother movie convined.
    If the stuff they are making is so expensive, how do they expect a return? you cant just inflate the budget and expect to make everything back.

      I really hope the narritive changes from whether or not it's good or bad and over to how every Pixar movie is trying so hard for a gimmick that they end up not telling a story worth hearing. It's like their huffing their own farts about every Twidiot ranting about how Bugs Life is actually about workers rights or whatever.

      How the hell can you consider it a 10/10, though?

      The movie is okay. Nice visuals. Weak plot. Ember and Wade were sorta cute, but that wasn't the whole movie and certainly didn't carry it.

      Because Pixar actually develops groundbreaking new tech for almost every movie, it may not be tech the public notices but from a technical and artistic standpoint this movie is about 2-3 times more impressive than Spider-Verse, which looks like a 00s games at times, it's just slathered in post processing to mask it. Normalgays care for the flashier thing though to no one's surprise.

        At one point, while flying around in an improvised hot air balloon, Ember and Wade float by an earth couple's apartment where they're picking fruit from the trees sticking out of each other, then the couple looks out the window and sees their weird sex thing is being watched. I actually don't remember if pruning was the euphemism the couple used to deny they were doing a weird sex thing, but that happened.

      You know, even people who like woke stuff (at least those who can use logic) hate racism metaphors or allegories that give a logical reason for being racist.
      It makes sense that fire people can’t rent or live in flammable homes. She even burns the doorbell by just touching it. It’s reasonable and understandable why they would be denied. It’s not like real life where there’s (usually) no good reason. Like unless they have shit credit or bad history.

      >Was it at least better than the mario movie?
      Eh.

      Mario obviously leaned a lot more on nostalgia, to the point where people probably went back to find callouts rather than to see the movie again. Elemental looks better. Elemental's characters are more interesting. Elemental's plot is more interesting, even if it trips over itself and doesn't tell the best story.

      But Mario's more simple plot and more basic characters are more memorable. I can guarantee you that Jack Black singing "Peaches Peaches Peaches" is going to be remembered better than anything Elemental does. I like what Elemental was trying to do, just not what Elemental actually did with it.

      It's not awful. If you go to see it, it's a nice kids movie. The biggest thing you'll miss out if you watch a streaming website is that the visuals are really nice, especially the subtle fire effects.

    I'm getting the impression people don't like that I said I loved this movie. Seeing random nerds calling me a "Disney shills" for loving a movie is so weird.
    So I'm going to double down!
    I absolutely adored this movie. The entire time I was watching the movie I had the widest smile on my face because I loved seeing everything unfolding in front of me. This movie is the absolute peak of animation. I would put it in the same tiers as the greats such as Shrek, Shrek 2, Puss In Boots The Last Wish, and Spirited Away.
    To say I was enthused and completely captivated the entire time would not even begin to describe how much I loved this movie.
    The highlight of this movie would be the scene where "they have chemistry" with each other. I could absolutely feel the love and intimate passion they had for each other and I am not afraid to admit i had a tear coming out of my eye. To see a display of pure unfiltered affection with not a hint of irony or cynicism was beautifully immaculate.
    I would go as far as to say it is THE BEST movie of 2023 and is vastly superior to super Mario Bros. And Across The Spiderverse. I say this with no sense of irony behind it. This is what I genuinely feel and believe in and nothing can ever make me think otherwise
    I am absolutely going to watch it again and I can't wait!

    I had low expectations for this movie, thinking this is going to be a reskinned Zootopia and I was really surprised how well this movie really is.
    This is Pixar's best movie since Onward. The plot is cliche and it's shorter than I wanted it to be, but I love the environment and characters. Such a shame that Disney is trying to bomb this movie so they can have an excuse to ditch originals and produce sequels and remakes.

      Like I said here

      It could have worked as a short. It looks like it's for babies and that's why adults and teenagers didn't show up. It really sucks that Disney let Pixar frick up Lightyear so bad because they're not going to survive back to back flops. Pixar haven't had a hit since Coco, and now they're probably going to get folded into Walt Disney Animation Studio.

      it should have been a short. In a 5-10 minute long movie you don't think about this shit. In a 90 minute long movie you can only suspend disbelief so far before you lose the adults.
