He just can’t seem to get out of a theater head space. Characters like Auto that don’t have much emotion he just can’t seem to understand, he sees what makes a villain like auto work so well and immediately complains that they’re not emotional enough. And that’s fine, he knows that he is from a theater background so is biased towards theater, where every character is hyper emotional and needs to show and explain their feelings. It just means that a lot of cynical movies he just won’t like, he’d see a movie like Taxi driver and go “the movie only has one song that plays over and over, half the movie doesn’t matter, and the character’s reasonings aren’t explained.” Which again is fine. But it just kinda feels like he is more critical to movies if they leave you to wonder what the theme is or don’t have characters directly show how they feel instead of letting you know it by the end. So a character like Auto that can be seen as a symbol of cold cynicism in the face of hope and humanity but doesn’t directly say it, doesn’t go well with him.
Anyways, please put The incredibles as the third best Pixar movie, Wall-E second, and Toy Story 3 first.
