    I don't know what happened to Pixar but storytelling as a passion is missing from their recent projects. They make jokes too on the nose and in their effort to appease everyone, they're ruining the story for everyone.
    There are so many themes all over the movie and yet, none of them stick for any long. Jokes are forced, puns are always intended and the story takes the most mundane mainstream route.
    I miss the old Pixar, which would do something bold, and tug your heartstrings until you wanted to bawl your eyes out.
    I hope they come back soon

    Greed and goals go hand in hand. You can't achieve your goals without also sacrificing a part of yourself.
    Ambition can be deceptive, on one hand, it will demand that you give it the dedication it requires, but it will eat up every other sphere of your life.
    Saltburn is a great example of that. You can always achieve what you want, given that you sacrifice everything for that. But it begs the question, do you want to pay that…
