Emotional manipulation at its finest

Rating: 7/10 (2 May 2019)

I think we're going to look back at Pixar in 20 years as a study in how to manipulate audience emotions and psychological fine-tuning. This is a classic. At the time, objectively, it's an 8 or 9. But now, watching it again, especially with kids, it becomes obvious that they took an "inflation adjusted" CG-friendly aesthetic (toys) and invented the now-popular methods of emotional engineering.
