Pixar's next movie- Luca

[mdmost 43034]

Streaming on Disney+ starting June 18th. Seems a bit of a letdown after Soul but it's Pixar so I'll give it a chance.

Yes I think I've seen this before

Pixar Exec:  Go make a fish-out-of-water movie.

Yeah but it's a Little Mermaid for boys!

Definitely.

But I'm not sure if they are modeling this after the animated versions:

Or the live-action series:

 

But if you spent your money on Sea Monkeys instead of X-Ray specs, you were foolish.

I mean, I’ll watch it since it’s Pixar. I suspect it’ll be about as good as Onwarn which was blown away by Soul

That’s strange, it’s so unlike Disney to recycle stories. I can understand the gaffaw level in here.

You just don't argue anymore.

Onward was a big meh and this looks about the same. 

It'll be interesting to see if Lasseter can recreate the magic at his new studio.

Especially since Disney's live-action adaptation of The Little Mermaid is being filmed as we speak.

Those biker fairies were funny.

Looks like it falls on the silly and light hearted spectrum of Pixar movies. What's wrong with that? I actually really like the visual direction of the film... reminds me a bit of Coco with it's warm color palettes.

Pixar executive #1:  Wow, it would be awesome if we could justify business trips somewhere along the Italian coast.

Pixar executive #2:  By the way, did you all see that Disney is doing a live-action Little Mermaid?

Pixar executive #2: Little Mermaid?  Say no more!

Ha, I hear ya. But I have couple of friends that work at Pixar. The location scouting trips the writers/art team take are badass. Big part of their process, I doubt they have to wrangle it out of Disney to get budget for that.

Pretty formulaic but I enjoyed it. Won’t make my top 10 but solid. The colors and scenery were so good.
