@ela- It seems like the things that are closest to you at the moment really hit you hard. I had a hard time at that part too, though I think it was just because of the family moment. (BTW, I really miss you and Eria! I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing an emotional move =P)

@Ariel- TRUE! Some people forget their opinions are JUST opinions...not facts 😉

Oh yes the facts and opinions crack me up! But you're right Ariel, kinda scary at the same time!

Stuff like memory dump, short- and long-term memory, and the recall tubes were both "ooh, yeah, I totally get it!" and "wow, it actually makes geographical sense... that's cool!"

I don't have a favourite character at this point (though Anger and Disgust amuse me and I empathize pretty easily with Sadness).

Ah, that is the one called Vice Versa in French translation?

I first thought it was that other Vice Versa with the Garuda stone ...

Anyway, in case anyone ever though Narnia was an "allegory", Inside Out is what "allegory" (as a literary form) is really about. Since sadness and the rest are not really persons.

@hansgeorg: Yes, this is called Vice Versa in French. 🙂 I take it you've seen it too?

No, living on the street I have not had enough money for a cinema ticket.

I have seen publicities for it all over the place, though. At first I wondered where the train ride came in and why they had added a couple of daughter and mother on top of the son and father (or replaced). Ha, then I saw there was no Garuda stone anywhere in sight.

Suppose the Frenchies who called it Vice Versa had not idea of that other story.

Ah, I understand.
Well, there have been films under the same name but with entirely different stories. Can't think of any at the moment, but I know I've seen a couple myself.

So here's a random question for you all: of the five emotions in the movie, which do you think would be the dominant one in your own mind? Though it shouldn't be the case, I'm thinking Disgust would be my alpha emotion.... 😕

Haha good question. I think probably fear. Just cause I'm really paranoid about everything.

@Anne: Overall it's actually been a good move, it's just remembering everything before we left that can be tough at times. (Eria says hi, by the way 🙂 )

As for the question... well I think DIsgust is my dominant emotion as much as I don't want to admit it. A very close second would be Fear - not really of "tangible" situations but of abstract concepts .

Ooh, Elanor identifies a second! Not quite sure what my second would be....

We might get to go see Inside Out! I hope. If we don't see it this weekend, then we probably won't see it until it comes out on DVD. 😕 But I really want to. 😛

I hope you get to too. 🙂

I loved Inside Out! Who else had to sit through that annoying short at the beginning? I looooooooooooooove anger! What does that say about me, I wonder?

"I have a dream I hope will one day come true, when you are here with me and I'm here with you..." Yeah, that's just from having seen the short once. 😕

As for liking Anger... I can't really say because I like him too. Not all the time, but in general.

*takes a deep breath*

I loved Inside Out to pieces! I was prepared to cry during this movie and it did not disappoint.
(mom actually had to comfort me at the end where riley is crying, cause I was crying so hard I was sniffling. I mean I figured what was the use in trying to pretend to be strong and not let things affect me (what I useally do.) I'd only get a major headache.) I really identified with riley even thought she was just 11/12 and i'm not, because it woke something up in me, like an old memory of how happy and whimsical I used to be,

It also really struck me because we moved (well I guess it's almost two years now.) and I've just been really stuck, and sad somtimes and too afraid to go out any and join anything around me (the young Adult's community group is at the same time as the church service of the church we went too.) We've moved 3 or 4 times (I know some people have moved many many more so I'm not trying to complain) each time has been harder because I'm older each time and putting down roots is hard because I'm pretty shy. I'm still missing the church I had been apart of and had made friends there. I don't remember exactly why I hoped to see it with my parents, but sometimes it's easier to watch a movie and show them and discuss off of that. So yeah, I thought it was awesome and the best Pixar I've seen yet.

As much as I loved Joy, I was glad in the end she came to understand the importance of sadness because I didn't like her being rude as she was to sadness. (Of course I understand, who wants sadness around??) The moment when Joy cried felt really important to me. And I loved the teamwork of Joy and Sadness at the end. The part at the end where her parents comfort her was enormous too because it seems sometimes like there's an enormous pressure today to always be happy and for the parents comforting her and saying they missed things too.

So there you have it my ramblings.

I loved the part where they spilled over the "facts and opinions" and they said, "O, theses facts and opinions look so similar." ^_^

I noticed that part to it was amusing.

Oh, yeah, facts and opinions. That bit was both hilarious and scary.... 🙂 ...

Yeah, I know!
