Mon Dieu, the sequel. It is the lifeblood of the modern studio system, and Pixar, once the bastion of original ideas, is now fully tethered to this machine. When Inside Out 2 arrived, the skeptics were quick to sharpen their knives.

Pixar’s obsession with “universal relatability” can sometimes suffocate the very artistry it claims to champion.
