I always thought you were in Baltimore city for some reason. We were the only district to go back today without a delay

... so Inside Out 2 is definitely another funny and moving film from Pixar, and while not as much of a jolt as the first one, its sensitive handling of mental health and identity ends up being really poignant.

I also watched Inside Out 2. I loved the first one, and though the second one feels a little too similar early on, the handling of new emotions like anxiety and ennui reached levels of brilliance at times towards the film's climax. Amy Poehler's voice work just remains so brilliant, too...

... with less stakes. There's the cackling empererors, the fights with animals, the slavery, the revenge story, etc. It's all fine and good and I settled comfortably into the story, even while some scenes are absolutely ludicrous (the sharks?! lol). Gladiator 2 is a solid B-/C+.

Maybe he can get his Oscar for this role? But The Piano Lesson really blew me away, I bawled several times, laughed a lot too. I can't imagine liking a movie more this year.

Today I watched Gladiator 2. It was almost a remake of the first one, though everything seems a little sillier...

... she blew me away. Those Wilson monologues sound so natural coming from her, her forceful presence making that poetry come alive. And the scene she has with the other standout of the cast, Ray Fisher as Lymon, just crackled with longing and visceral emotion. Sam Jackson is also quite good.
