Soul

[Queen2PrincessG]

Anyone else a bit worried about another movie with a person of color, who isn't going to be in their body for the majority of the movie? Like why is this always the storyline?

 

[L&Lfan]

Not worried. It seems it’s the storyline in 2 movies. Can you name any others?

Coco
Brother Bear
Princess and the Frog
Emperors New Groove

After the most recent trailer, I think we're going to see a lot more of Joe in real life (including flashbacks) than I originally thought. And not to play Devil's Advocate, but his soul does still look like him (as opposed to Tiana, who got turned into a whole other species).

I'm wondering when we're going to hear, "What is the deal with Pixar and Dead People!?" (Or near-dead people.) Land of the Dead, bring Dad back from the dead, souls going to the Great Beyond. I love Coco, liked Onward, looking forward to Soul. But I can hear parents griping that Pixar should be making lightweight entertainment for their preschoolers.

I can too because death, race, and sex are topics people really aren't comfortable talking about. Maybe that's partially Pixar's goal to make the conversation some people have a difficult time talking about easier.

I have a feeling "Soul" is going to be fantastic - love the look from the trailer

I think it's a great way to introduce children to the concept of death, and even the significance of death in other cultures (when our world is used as the basis). I hope they do their diligence in Soul as they did in Coco.

But I will admit, I had wanted to see Onward - then my dad died two days before it came out and I decided that wasn't a great idea. Not sure if I'm ready for Soul yet, either.
