like some level of tension with your mom or realizing you want to be one but issa real uphill path there
but also if you miss how pixar movies hit you in the chest before both of you got older
or if you just love stunning animation or “wait that was who?!” voice casting

a Fundamentally flawed film in its awkward dialogue, pacing and arguably whole concept. however there is just something about it that’s so special – the uncanny nature of the practical/CGI effect combination, the childish portrayal of the monsters, the magical realism / coming of age crossover (never been a more goated genre combo).
put this on and vibe out, maybe have a cry on behalf of your childhood self, listen to animal collective after.

My school did a workshop about it when I was like 10 and I think the amount of care and dedication it takes to hand crafting each and every frame is so cool. When its done well you get a really stylised films, I’m thinking like Chicken Run, Wallace and Gromit, Coraline, Fantastic Mr. Fox, ParaNorman and The Box Trolls all of which I loved as a kid and every time I rewatch them I get the same sense of childlike wonder I did when I watched them the first time. I know there’s a lot of crossover with CGI now when making them but just the concept of stop motion animation is really cool.

it’s a study of childlike wonder, finding place/purpose, the conflict between stagnant society vs preservation, the importance of death and grief, ethics vs inner drives, and the dangers of obsession. and it’s beautiful. and it’s cozy.
highly highly recommend. the first time i watched it i was like cool this is fun. and then i just kept thinking about it and it kept popping into my mind.
fun and whimsical, but mature and thoughtful.

And then stick around for the headliner so you “get your money’s worth” only to see the headliner open their set with like 25 minutes of the most “gets no hoes” music you’ve heard in a minute

We all know airports and flying are kind of an iteration of Hell at this point, so why not make travel fun? Comes with a bunk bed and feels quintessentially American, but the good parts (traveling through the country, power of industry, pre-made food). The coffee tastes like nothing, though.
