The fact that they just announced that turning red is only on disney is baffling. the amount of work all those people who worked on this movie has to be insane. I was so hyped to go see this in theaters.

It's sad to see how much Pixar has just been brushed to the side like theyve been as of late. As if they dont matter as much as Disney's own animated content. Whatever may happen next, hopefully Pixar wont suffer the same fate that blu sky studios did. Where despite having the potential to grow under Disney's wing, disney instead shut them down, not let them finish their next film that only needed 10 more months to finish(nimona) and just take the properties they made and make their own stuff with them(ice age adventures of buck wild).

This is something I noticed a while ago and I’m really glad that someone is talking about it can’t wait for this channel to grow

“There are benefits to having a movie only being on streaming,” and “We should point out how poorly Disney is treating their properties,” are two statements that you can agree with at the same time.

After morale was low when Luca was put on Disney+, Disney promised that Turning Red would get a theatrical release. I can’t imagine how PISSED Pixar employees must feel right now. I genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if a mass amount of employers from Pixar walk out and go work for Sony or something.

Pixar was literally the studio that carried Disney during the 2000s era. Hurts to see them being treated this way.

In the long run, Disney buying Pixar was a mistake on every single level that never should have happened (same with the Muppets, Marvel, Lucasfilm, Fox, Blue Sky Studios, etc.).

I’ve noticed it too. A lot of Disney Pixar films have been failing. It’s not just a coincidence either. I believe Disney is setting up to switch to more live action remakes. It’s really sad how far Disney has fallen and how far Pixar has been tossed down the bin of the forgotten.

I'm really glad someone is talking about this problem about the treatment of Pixar movies. As much as I love getting free movies with the streaming service, Pixar deserves more respect and theatrical release of one of their movies this year. Disney has struggled with their CEOs for a long while from what I heard until Bob Iger stepped in and now we are going down this spiral again and it is hurting Disney and the studios under it. I just want things get better. Also I enjoyed this video very much. It reminds me of the Sonic discussion videos on your channel which have always been good. You deserve so many subscribers and I hope you channel will continue to grow. It was so nice to hear you talk about something different and this channel is a breath of fresh air.

Walt Disney said "If you can dream it, you can do it, and don't let anybody say you can't". This is my biggest dream goal of bringing the 2-D animated style from Disney once again and I'll be a movie director as well.

I think the main Disney is hesitant to release Pixar movies into Theatres is because they make original movies with original stories and original characters that aren’t based off a pre existing ip, whereas with Disney films they are based off a lot of ips and popular stories, also keep in mind that Pixar had a lackluster decade in the 2010’s which means they’ve lost their reputation for the best animated movies of all time, so they’re not the box office draw they used to be with the exception of Toy Story.

Everything disney touches, got ruins. Will you let one mascot manipulate every humanity on earth. Just for a fucking fake magic land

The worst part about this whole situation is that Pixar seems to be in a renaissance period. After a decade of making mediocre sequels and some uncomfortable behind-the-scenes drama, they seemed to finally be getting their act together and start making great original movies again. However, Disney is squandering their potential to thrive as much as their golden age movies by denying them theatrical releases. Soul and Luca had the opportunity to become well-regarded works of animation on the same level as movies like Ratatouille or Up, but by shoving those films to a straight-to-streaming release, Disney is making them look like they're not high-quality enough to warrant being seen on the big screen, and that sucks because if these films don't get a chance to succeed, Pixar might have to resort to making sequels again just to stay afloat as a company.

This is the reason so many people nowadays just stick with the older movies, and the ones grew up with because that's precisely what those kinds of movies did for them. They were heartfelt, funny, for all the ages, full of value, and are consistently good every time you watch them. While one of the purposes was the company to make money, they still wanted to deliver a quality product to the viewers and it feels like they've lost that.

I absolutely want to watch those movies and support Pixar, but I refuse to give money to Disney just to see them. They deserve to be respected with releases in theaters. I would rather have the movies go straight to DVD than this because then I’d be able to actually access it without paying for a streaming service that I don’t want

They're turning Pixar to what Circle 7 was supposed to be.

Well as the Cars 3 teaser said, and I quote, “From this moment, everything will change.”

I’ve been feeling like this for a while. The value Pixar brings to the table is incredible. It’s one of the few if only movie studios where I’ve watched EVERY SINGLE movie they’ve come out with. I was shocked when Soul and Luca came out for free on Disney+ when I fully would have paid to watch them. It made me sad because I don’t want Pixar’s brand to be cheapened when everyone holds them to a very high standard

Pixar was Toy Story, Monsters Inc, Cars, Nemo, Ratatouille. Evil how they ruined it

God let’s hope Pixar doesn’t get Disney’s BlueSky treatment 😬

I liked Bolt a lot in my childhood... to the point of giving my dog ​​that name. Now there's a Bolt in my house.

I just wonder why it's only Pixar. They could've done the same with their other studios or do the premier access thing alongside theatrical releases. But for some reason they only keep all of Pixar's stuff exclusively on D+ It's weird. Though here's the thing, I do agree how these movies can benefit off streaming services. I mean look at Encanto. That movie wasn't making too much buzz during it's theatrical run during thanksgiving but after it's release on D+, it's practically the most popular animated movie as of now because of it's easy accessibility. We're still in a pandemic and there are still lots of people who are hesitant to go out to theaters. Yeah I'm bummed that yet another original Pixar movie is gonna hit streaming only but I think this is the best choice for now until cases slow down.

As a consumer Im both happy I get to see these movies for ‘free’ but also annoyed I can’t see them on the big screen. I loved Luca but was frustrated I didn’t have the option to see it at the cinema, especially since here in the UK things are opening up way more. I worked at a cinema last year and it was bizarre that you could see crap like the boss baby 2 and adams family 2 but not the new Pixar film. Just seems wrong.

We took for granted 💔 how well animated movies in 1990s and 2000s were, outside the animation being revolutionary for it's time, the writing was also well written that even being 30. I can still watch movies like Ice Age (2002) and actually enjoy.

The problem that has emerged with Disney and Pixar is how formulaic their movies have become. Unlike their competition at Sony Pictures Animation, who are pushing the boundaries of the animation medium with a 2 part sequel to Into The Spiderverse, much of Disney and Pixar’s modern film catalogue lacks the creativity and wow factor that it once had during each studio’s renaissance period. For Disney, this was from the Little Mermaid up to Mulan (1989-1998), and for Pixar, this was from Toy Story all the way to Up (1995-2009).

It’s great to see you talk about other things aside from Sonic such as movies and tv shows. If you think Disney is affecting Pixar, look at Warner Bros at how they’re disrespecting not only their directors vision, but also disrespecting fans of the DCEU or DC in general, the actors coming out their horrible experience with Justice League such as Ben Affleck and Ray Fisher, keeping Amber Heard in Aquaman 2, I could go on how WB is very inconsistent and disorganized on how much they don’t care about their fans.

First ever Pixar film to be co directed by a black man never got released in theaters. First ever Pixar film to be directed by a woman without her being fired halfway through won't be released theatrically either. Great job Disney.

I feel like a lot of Pixar films are more hit and miss to me now. Lightyear looks awesome and different, and I actually really enjoyed Soul. But Turning Red and Luca I really just…don’t care about. Same thing with Disney, I have no desire to see Encanto or Raya and the Last Dragon. I’m sure they’re good films but I’m just not interested like I used to be

I am seriously super excited for this video-essay type of content, You clearly have a talent for creating content Ricardo and I am glad that you are exploring it. Can't wait to see what you post next!

"Lightyear looks amazing! It looks ambitious and cool and unique! This could be Pixar's next big hit!". Dang, this statement didn't age well.

To be fair, I kind of see their point. In a way, while it could be seen as disrespectful for these films to not get a theatrical release, no one would see them in theaters. Look at what happened to Encanto. That movie bombed in theaters, but the minute it hit Disney+ the film exploded in popularity. People won't see a movie in theaters nowadays unless they have a good reason to see it immediately, and as evidenced this past year that only seems to facilitate MCU films. More exposure is always a good thing.

Good video. I do hope Pixar doesn't get destroyed by Disney, cause they really have made some of the best animated movies ever made. The first two Toy Story movies are a couple of my favorite movies. Also a big fan of Monsters Inc and others. I even defend the Cars movies to an extent (and yes, that includes Cars 2, though I do think that one should've been a spin-off and Cars 3 should've been Cars 2)

I said this back when Soul got ditched into Disney + whereas Raya got a premiere release, but I was called a madman. Now that everyone has accepted this modus operandi several times, Disney managed to normalize this undermining of Pixar and it's too late to change this business model and maybe even stop them from dissolving Pixar into becoming an extension of Disney Animation. I'm gonna use this as chance to say FUCK THE ADMINS OF THE KINOPLEX, they treated me like an ignorant fool when I presented this point.

Wow! Congratulations Riccardo on trying to explore other pop culture media on this new channel. Especially from another content creator who's known for Sonic and other pop culture related stuff too. It's nice to explore your own thoughts and opinions on other studios and franchises like Pixar.

Would it all be better to just *STOP* watching Disney movies?

0:42 ARE YOU SAYING TOY STORY 3 IS A BAD MOVIE? No, it's not. It was THE perfect and satisfying conclusion to the Toy Story franchise.

This is exactly how I’m feeling, especially considering how disappointed I am that I can’t see Turning Red in theaters. And I don’t want Disney to keep treating Pixar like this, because it’s very unjustified!

Loving the idea of this new channel! I'm really glad that you get to talk about your other interests, and I think it has a lot of potential to grow!

I don’t blame Disney. I blame John Lasseter. He may have founded the studio and steered the ship in its early days, but his dream job was always running Disney. So when they put him in charge of both, it seemed like a good move even if he might be stretched thin. As it turned out, that should have been the least of their concerns. Lasseter may love Disney, but he also despised them for not giving CGI animation the chance a decade earlier than they did, as the man literally believes he is just as much of a revolutionary as Walt himself. As such, he began homogenizing the studios, forcing Disney to give up 2D animation entirely and then refusing to do more than the bare minimum in his efforts at Pixar. All this ego ended up with the somewhat mixed bag of quality both companies experienced in the 2010s, as well as… the other stuff. In a weird way though, while I obviously don’t condone his behavior, that other stuff turned out to be the thing that allowed Disney to give him the boot, and now Pixar is in the hands of one of its greatest talents, Pete Docter. The theatrical thing is still a problem, and I hope COVID will have lightened up a bit so that Pixar can get back to theaters by at least when Lightyear comes out. And looking on the bright side, while Pixar movies being given the streaming-only treatment may seem to be a complete disgrace, I see it as more of a double-edged sword given how popular Soul and Luca were despite - or perhaps, BECAUSE of - their streaming releases. But in terms of the films’ quality themselves, I think Pixar is finally on the right track.

Pixar is suffering from their connection to Disney. Disney properties and actors have made habits of insulting viewers and fans before their products release. It's turned a lot of people away. For the most part, I don't even hear about Disney's movies anymore. No one around me (who all love their movies) even mention them anymore. When you Disney made a movie, that used to mean it would be good. When Pixar made a movie, that used to mean it was really good. And while I can't debate the quality of their recent films, Disney has been acquiring a bad reputation. And Pixar is and will suffer for it.

Congrats on the new channel best of luck bro!

I loved onward tbh

Are we going to ignore the fact that Encanto did mediocre (at best) business at the box office, but EXPLODED on Disney Plus?

Everything Disney touches, turns to sh!t

"I like Star Wars" *shows Rey* "How dare you stand where he stood."

Yeah. I really just want to see a Pixar movie in theaters once again. I was actually thinking of seeing Turning Red in theaters, but nope, thrown on Disney Plus. I’d honestly be kinda mad if I was a movie theater right now given we aren’t in lockdowns or anything like we were going on 2 years ago and they are the ones originally advertising these movies that get ported. I remember seeing the Turning Red teaser in theaters and that being how I learned about the movie, and then I learn that now I will just get to sit in front of my TV and watch it on Disney Plus. Bores me as a consumer and screws over everyone else.

Great video! But that side diss on toy story 3 truly hurt. My balls are still recovering from the damage.

I was surprised to find out that this isnt a million sub channel. Genuinely good and professional content. And i completely agree with you! Excited for future videos dude!

As a rabbid anorexic basement dwelling Pixar fan, I've been noticing this "trend" for quite a while now and it's amazing that others share my exact thoughts! Keep it up bromie! This video makes me proud to call you my niece. Xoxoxoxoxo - Dad

Brooooo seeing you talk about movies in general in so dope, can’t wait to see what you do next! Love both of your channels man 👊

I’m still disappointed that I wasn’t able to see Luca on a giant theater screen. I loved that movie so much.

This is how identity politics destroys everything it touches.

I've got friends who work at Pixar, and my impression is that morale is low. This is the equivalent of putting Star Wars or Lord of the Rings or the Godfather straight onto DVD. It's a move that might make them some decent revenue but will not make the sorts of memories that you get seeing a movie in theaters for the first time. Heck, watching movies with my kids at the theater is a way better experience than watching them at home because for them, eating fresh-made popcorn and seeing everything on a big screen is half the experience. Lightyear was clearly MADE to be a theatrical experience. I hope and pray it's given the respectful release it deserves.

It’s so sad that even Disney is looking into home streaming over theaters. Yeah streaming is good but it’s still exciting to go to the theaters. Also the two Pixar movies put on Disney+ were incredible. I wish I saw them in theaters.

I’m not really surprised that Turning Red was put on Disney+, it doesn’t even look that great. Meanwhile Lightyear better keep its theatrical release because it looks great.

Damn. I haven’t even thought about this kind of stuff, thanks for making me and others so aware of this issue!

It’s not fair!!😣😣😣 I feel bad for Pixar!

I watched bolt when i was younger literally every day lmao

waiting till this dude gets 100k in a few years

somewhat good news: Went to the theater the other day, saw one of those small billboards with "lightyear" on it. This might mean lightyear could get a theatrical release folks

Tbh, the reason I agree with you is because I DON'T HAVE DISNEY PLUS. Disney please, release it on theater so I can watch it!!

I really liked Onward. I wish they would expand the continuity of that film more.

Turning Red didn't even look very good (it looked like another generic modern western animated project) but GOOD LORD this is a bad idea!

I get the same feeling seeing an animated movie that I like getting released on Netflix. Klaus and Back to the Outback come to mind of stuff that I've enjoyed on the service that I didn't see get a proper theatrical release. Part of me just wants to find additional ways to support these creators in more than just giving them a view on the platform but I am not sure how to go this route.

Is Disney showing favoritism to Disney Animation studio? Because why was Raya and the Last Dragon and Encanto released in theaters?

I just wish they would have more movies with bloopers!

To be fair, Toy Story 3 was great. The ending made me cry

I really am the odd one out here. But I got sick of Pixar quickly when I noticed that 90% of their films have the exact same story: Cute character gets lost and has to find their way back home again.

In defense of the hardworking animators behind our fave Pixar movies, I suggest that they should organize a strike against the Mouse!

I'm glad to see someone talking about this. I was upset to hear Turning Red was going to Disney+. I wish it was at least premiere acess because I will pay to support Pixar. I do predict Lightyear will be theaters because of the tie to Toy Story.

According to Nielsen, “Luca” was actually the most streamed movie of 2021

I think it's inevitable at this point that Disney will either turn Pixar into "Disney+ Studios" or just merge Disney Animation and Pixar. I mean, it never made sense for me that Disney made CGI movies just like Pixar when the two are the same company, it made sense when Disney were the traditional animation guys and Pixar the CG guys, but now? Disney movies look like Pixar movies, so what's the point of having them separate? Also, I don't know why so many people didn't like Onward, I adored that movie.

I hope lightyear doesn’t go on Disney + cause I wanna experience it at the cinema

I have a scary feeling that This is how Disney is going to treat Pixar movies from now on.

so glad i found your channel!! this is right up my alley!!! i would absolutely love a video on the Disney era from 2011 Tangled-present (or maybe a distinct ending point bc I do feel like that era is kinda dying out now). I feel like it's definitely a distinct period kind of like a another "Renaissance," but I think we should rename it haha. But with their move to CGI and Tangled and Frozen, reigniting the Disney princesses and more, it definitely deserves its own video!

1:32 I felt that pure disappointment when you said bolt

4:48 the way he pronounced Encanto hurts me.......

Yoo man huge fan good to see you branch out been watching since the merch hunts good to see the success

To those IRL, I sound a bit of an anti-Disney, especially when I express real disappointment that Pixar is thrown in the trash per se, well, ya worded it way better than I can. This studio shouldn't be "hidden", it should be butting heads with Illumination to show whose boss.😭

There's still time for Disney to revert Turning Red's original plan for a theatrical release. But I swear that Lightyear is a spectacle worth seeing in theaters. Typed on 1/19.

I really hope Soul, Luca, Turning Red, and Ownward get a 2nd chance by having them re-released in theaters. I REALLLLY wanted to see Soul and Luca on the big screen. I hate being forced to watch movies like this. Especially taking away that big event from two frist time directors.

It's a shame Onward didn't get a greater reception. I found it to be one of Pixar's more interesting, well crafted and truly captivating original movies in a long time. Pixar has really been killing it in the latter half of the 2010s and all of their films have been much better than Disney Animations. I didn't think Luca quite measured up but it still should've been released in theaters. It's not right that Disney's new animated movies which haven't been great are getting theatrical releases while Pixar's higher quality movies are being made Disney+ exclusives. Morale is down at Pixar because of this unfair treatment and this won't motivate them to continue working hard to produce their best work if it's not going to be worth much in the end. I'm a lifelong Disney fan as well but I think the company today is straying from Walt's vision and those currently in charge of it do not possess the values and eye for talent he had. They've taken very wrong turns with their own studios, Lucasfilm and now Marvel because the desire to innovate has taken a backseat to whatever will turn the easiest profit which is why the Disney theme park experience is also dying. I believe Pixar is one of the few studios left in Hollywood still turning out quality entertainment with incredible passion to inspire future generations rather than propaganda to appease the present one. We NEED Pixar to remain strong and successful but I also fear it might not be for long if Disney's destructive path continues.

I just got recommended this thinking the avatar looked familiar and then I heard the voice and it all made sense lol. Good video and I'm glad to see you're branching out!

People please bother to watch the video before commenting He's not saying "Pixar has been failing a lot ever since Disney took over" or "Disney has interfered with the creative process". He's saying Disney is making some baffling release decisions that is hurting one of their most valuable companies, and how weird and concerning it is.

With Disney nowadays, apparently everything has to be “feminine,” “gay,” and “woke,” 😒.

This channel will obviously blow up, the way you explain and keeping your audience engaged is amazing. Love you, Ricardo❤😊 (Btw, I did know your name from Twitter hah😅❤)

super happy with this channel!!

Alternate title: How Disney is killing everything we know and love

Another thing to keep in mind is Disney lost a ton of non Disney plus revenue the moment theatres and theme parks shut down. Not to mention Disney owns espn sports too.

I'm gonna be honest, I love your Sonic content so much ...But I am a humongous fan of turning these kinds of analysis or real talk videos on and just taking a break from everything, it's the best. Great first video, omg!! Great points and just overall, real nice job! ^^ Excited to see more in the future, take care though, 4 videos a week altogether for both channels sounds... challenging. You've got this, but please try not to burn yourself out for others to be happy here, k? You got this Ricardooo!

This makes no sense! Disney should not forget about Pixar; it is not less important to Disney's success than it was 15 years ago.

They should put the movies on streaming and in theaters at the same time like Warner Bros. does.

I'm pretty sure Lightyear will get a theatrical release BECAUSE of the Toy Story connection. I'd actually be shocked if it went to D+. Also, am I the only one tires of Disney's trend of hyper-detail textures on everything but the characters? It's just a pet peeve, I'll admit, but I don't like how it seems like they're going "let's make it as unanimated looking as possible."

I get the feeling that Disney has never really cared for Pixar. They only bought Pixar in the first place so that it didn’t overtake them as the number one animation studio, and now they are pretty much sabotaging their movies and giving Disney animation movies special treatment. Feels a bit weird to me.

There is something to be said though about how 'Turning Red' also doesn't look like it's going to hold up when standing next to Raya or Up, you know, I'm sure it's going to be great but it just feels different to me, it doesn't seem strong enough or like it has enough passion to make it as big as the other masterpieces both Disney and Pixar have made. But it all depends on how the movie goes I guess.

I love your choice of Sonic Megacollection music for this video!

Wow this is an amazing video. You know a lot about Disney movies, you have amazing potential in your channel. I highly enjoyed your video and like to see more about pop culture and I’m a huge fan of Sonic channel as well.😊

I'm happy to hear that I'm not the only one feeling bad for Pixar for their free movie releases.Hopefully Lightyear will be in theaters.

I’ve not seen my family in 3 years, we are meeting up again for the first time this summer and the first thing we want to do is all go see Lightyear in the movies. We are super hyped I hope Disney can pick that up
