Best-ever sense of flight and space and size, paired with a fairly serious story and touching dragon-boy bonding. Brilliant score. Transcends some of the dumb YA side characters/points. One of my favorite animated movies ever.

Beautiful Girls is a movie I probably would have loved if not for the wart on its ass.
Pixar as the thoughtful and emotional epicenter of animation is back, at least for a film. This is one I really need to see again to rate where it lands in the Pixar pantheon, but I can say for sure I really liked it in spite of its Pete Docter quirks (which don’t seem to bother anyone else, so whatever).

Scrooge (1970)
Lovely hand-drawn animation style and cute little story. Gotta enjoy these Pixar shorts.
Non-horrible way to revisit the Trolls world. The story is forgettable, but it has some fun trippy stuff going on.
Not at all good, but maybe not as horrible as it could have been. Get rid of the kid actor, though.
