Dream Scenario 2023
Dream Scenario is very much a vibes first kind of film. And the vibes are immaculate. It has a wonderful, unconventional flow that is just so intriguing to let unravel.

Between this and Soul, Pixar really are in a renaissance period. While Luca is certainly a lot more subdued concept wise than a lot of the studio’s most beloved work, I think the stripped down nature of this allows for the characters at the centre of it to shine all the more. Luca is not the best of what the studio has to offer, feeling a little generic in its opening, but it’s certainly one which will go down as being pretty high up there given that once it finds its emotional core, it oozes charisma and catharsis.
