"I saw this movie for children and it reminded me of children's media, therefore everyone but me is retarded," is...quite the take, I must say.
Don't be a disingenuous faggot. You perfectly know what he meant. Inside Out 2 is shit tier compared to Pixar's best and it's still the most decent thing they've put out out in years AND they are getting rewarded for it.
Thanks, I hate it. Ugly lesbian woke character design for the female. Who of course has confidence. The male is of course shy and awkward. Why do they always push men to think they should be betas? It's different than Peter in the Rami films, he wasn't a beta. Now everything is Beta cucks.
Because beta men are timid faggots that are inofffensive for the most part (at least till they go from nice guy, to incel, to tranny) and showing any semblance of confidence is toxic masculinity. We can't have boys actually being confident!

make people feel real feelings because they're just cartoons
fun fact, psychologists are still trying to figure out that paradox (you rationally know it isn't real, but you still react the same).

This is all from the Grimm's 1812 version of "Kinder- und Hausmärchen"
not to mention all the weird shit that got sanitized. snowwhite gets fucking poisoned by a relative, the hunter in little red riding hook cuts open the wolf alive, hansel & gretel burn the witch alive, literal child abuse and bullying in cinderella etc., grimm tales don't fuck around.
and that's before you get to struwwelpeter that would push most anglo parents into an hysteric fit: https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/12116 (EDIT: and yes, that was still pretty common when I was growing up. probably much less these days).

I keep hearing that our brains haven’t evolved a “subconscious” filter yet. We (in general) consciously know fiction isn’t real, yet our brains take it to heart. It still becomes part of our experience. It’s, for lack of better words, in the sweet spot of “psychological distance.” Like a reverse uncanny valley. It’s far enough from reality for suspension of disbelief, yet close enough to have some realism. That’s why cartoons bouncing around is fine, yet some idiot doing it on TikTok makes you want to punch him.
 
Went back and watched the Huntsman films. Charlize Theron carries the films on her back. It reminds me of Michelle Pfeiffer in Stardust, and she was perfection in that.

Gal Gadot will never be able to match up to that or the original Disney film...or any of the adaptations, even the anime versions.
 
People want something to see with their kids. So what?
You can also watch the Land Before Time... XIV?! There are 13 fucking sequels?!... anyway you can watch any of the sequels with your kids and they don't hold a candle to the Don Bluth one.

Pixar was the "movies that kids and adults can thoroughly enjoy" studio till they went to shit 5 years ago. Inside Out definitely fell into that for all ages, 2 very much does not, it's just mid. It's a film that would have come and gone in a time where films weren't absolute ass constantly.

The bad part is not that adults are watching films with their kids, it's that standards have fallen so far off a cliff that Inside Out 2 is considered a highlight.
 
The Snow White movie with Sigourney Weaver as the Queen is good. She has a reason to hate Snow White because that brat is a fucking cunt. Eventually Weaver starts chewing the scenery as she gets more evil and it's a blast to see her cut loose. Sam Neil is good but a little out of his element. The dwarfs are only a little rapey at first and most of them die at some point along with most of the rest of the cast. Great costumes and real locations in Czech Republic.

Never saw the Huntsman one but for some reason it got added to my account when I signed up for Movies Anywhere. That one always struck me as shitty cgi fest kind of like most post-LOTR fantasy.
 
and its the 10th highest grossing film of all time, and the highest grossing animated movie of all time. We might whine, but the movie watching public is literally that retarded. Which is why they're cranking out sequels, now that they know the bar is as low as Inside out 2, they're going full retard

come on now
They know their originals aren’t making money, so they are pretty much reliant on nostalgia-baiting and sequels now. Get ready for Toy Story XV with Tom Hanks’s great grandson and Inside Out 18 with a million fucking personalities.
The only good part about the movie was when Yongyea showed up to voice that video game dude.
I was surprised that Yong Yea of all people voiced a character in that fucking film.

The Lily Collins Snow White (mirror mirror) wasn't the greatest, but it was a fun enough live action adaptation for kids, being an action/comedy and all.

Disneys Snow White and the Dwarves isn't that strong of a base.

Aside from the dwarves the original didn't have a whole lot going on for kids, and they butchered those. As a kid, I don't think I knew a single kid that actively liked Snow White over the age of 5.
The movie doesn't have any strong musical numbers either, ffs the 'epic' trailer song was whistle while you work.

Unlike the remakes of little mermaid, lion king, aladdin etc, the parents of current children (and the more prolific childless disney adults) dont have that much nostalgia towards Snow White. It was the movie of gen alpha's great grandparents.

Other life action remakes based on the older movies changed a lot, maleficent, tim burton alice in wonderland, cinderella to a lesser degree. Fairly big changes to make them appeal more to teen girls/older audiences.
Leaving those older movies childish but with some woke shoved in just doesn't work, see life action Dumbo, Pinnochio and Peter Pan.

And the only two real (not cgi) actors seen are woke snow brown and gadot, both causing people to boycott the movie for different reasons.

Can they even have Gadot transform into the ugly witch with the huge nose, or would that be 'antisemetic'?

Seriously, who do this movie appeal to?

While the sequels may indeed just be cashgrabs, they at least  know they are cashgrabs. They dont aim to be something other than fast, fun entertainment for kids.
Pixar and Disneys issue is they are trying to claim all these sequels and desperate ploys for nostalgia are somehow of a higher plane than just wanting money off parents/people who want to remember the 'good old days', and also being creatively bankrupt, despite there being tons of interesting ideas and stuff they could do instead.

You bring up Land Before Time which is a good illustrator of the cycle. Dom Bluth and Spielberg had a hot streak in the '80s and '90s that lasted about as long as Pixar's. It produced Land Before Time, Secret of NIMH, An American Tale, (and the sequel which IMO has merit), All Dogs Go To Heaven, etc. Towards the end things started crapping out (Rock-A-Doodle, the LBT sequels) and finally flatlined with Titan A.E.

These things happen. It's not unique to Pixar, or to Disney for that matter. People come and go, budgets change, leadership changes. It's one thing to appreciate that we seem to be at the end of a creative hot streak and be bummed about it. I just don't think there's value in overreacting to it. Pixar not being the studio it was 20 years ago is not a sign of the downfall of western civilization, which is the vibe I'm getting from some people here.

I won't pretend to understand the intricacies of studios and production but I think one reason for this might be the fact that so much of the entertainment world feels controlled by a singular entity. Which is all happiness and rainbows when they're largely pushing out what people want to see (e.g. Disney Marvel's heyday and how a fair amount of people wanted every Marvel property under the same banner because of the confidence people had in them back then), but doesn't work when they're seemingly fighting against their consumers.

Worse still, every company with a foot in the door seems to have a singular message to put across and because it's The Message above story-telling, we're experiencing a terrible draught where things go wrong long before a storyboard is even presented. People don't hire talent and creatives, they hire checkmarks and prophets and yes men who all want to push the agenda. When considering how to make money or attract attention, being a fleeting trend on social media is more important than leaving a tangible impact with good advertising and trying to understand or milk what audiences want, even a little. 'You get another black female lead because we said so!' vs. 'Here's the 50th tough guy action film this month; you guys still like those, right?'

On top of that, whoever works in finance in Hollywood must have taken an indefinite vacation because money is poured into the worst projects or put into all of the wrong places constantly and these companies seem confused about where they should be cutting and spending. The mid-range movie dying out for a time is an example of Hollywood seemingly forgetting about the existence of niche and reliable, albeit rarely ever bombastic, audience bases after being blinded by all the zeros some superhero films were pulling in.

When it's the same problem is so many different areas of entertainment, I can understand how stifling it can feel. And it's likely a situation similar to this has already happened in history, but reading of it and living through it are two very different perspectives.

This is all to say I agree with you overall though, creatives and studios and projects that one finds entertaining and fulfilling will pop up, likely just from different sources and often when one doesn't expect it. The most disheartening thing about all this personally is how so much of the awful stuff we've seen as of late could have so easily been avoided. But those are Disney's lost millions, not mine.

I feel like if it was just Pixar and Disney (or even just the entertainment industry) falling apart, people wouldn’t be calling it the downfall of western society. The issue is western society falling apart on a social and economic level as well. Whether Hollywood’s downfall is related to the greater societal collapse going on or not, I don’t know. But this is people see one thing falling apart, see another thing falling apart, and assuming they’re related.
