So, so disappointed.
Huh? What is it?
I am guessing Good Dinosaur wasn't Good? LOL

Nothing can be worse than Cars 2...
You're right. Cars 2 was pretty bad. Are we still even allowed to think of it as a Pixar movie?
I would have said Wall-e. To be worse than that must be horrible.
We saw a brief preview of The Good Dinosaur at DHS a few weeks ago and all I can say about it is "Meh". :down:
I took my 9 year old son yesterday to see it. It wasn't bad at all. Pretty good. Aesthetically, just amazing and definitely Pixar's most realistic portrayal of the natural world. The story was basic but done well. If anything, the movie was weird and kind of disjointed and more intense than I expected. There was one scene that I felt was completely unnecessary and inappropriate that referenced getting high. Otherwise I would give it a solid 3 out of 5 stars.
The Good Dinosaur may not be Pixar's best, but it is way, way better than Cars 2. That was a total turkey. I loved Cars, but the sequel was a poor effort at trying to capitalize on merchandising without a very good storyline. Pixar should be ashamed at that one.
On Rotten Tomatoes it currently sits at 77 percent. The only ones worse are Cars 2, naturally, and Cars, at 74 percent - but I would argue Cars is far, far better than The Good Dinosaur.
The Good Dinosaur felt like a gentler take on the Lion King to me. It was fine to kill two hours on the holiday weekend with family, but I see no reason to ever see it again.
I was a little puzzled by Sanjay's Super Team as the short. I get it that we want to embrace diversity, but I can't imagine it would have went over well if they did a short with Jesus as a superhero.
