That's genuinely insane to me. I know Inside Out was popular, but I had no idea people were clamoring for a sequel.

One cynical theory I saw somewhere (probably in another thread here) … Is that Disney is good at making their films seem like “must see” events, that they’re perceived as a cultural staple.

And with the partial death of cinemas, it makes sense that you’d get some films like this that just convince everyone to go see it, cuz people still want to go every now and then… and it makes sense that it’d be Disney films that do that.

Disney has really struggled with this the last few years though.

I think Endgame was the last one. Don't think I've ever been more disappointed at the cinema. And I went to see King Ralph.
