Pixar always likes to try something different with its original movies, whether it’s the oddness of Up or the culinary idiosyncrasies of Ratatouille. Inside Out continues that, although from what we’ve seen so far it may be one of their more inspired ideas.

Here’s the synopsis: ‘From an adventurous balloon ride above the clouds to a monster-filled metropolis, Academy Award®-winning director Pete Docter (“Monsters, Inc.,” “Up”) has taken audiences to unique and imaginative places. In Disney•Pixar’s original movie “ Inside Out,” he will take us to the most extraordinary location of all—inside the mind.

‘Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it’s no exception for Riley, who is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Like all of us, Riley is guided by her emotions – Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center inside Riley’s mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley’s main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house and school.’

It’ll be in US cinemas in June and the UK in July, 2015. [Read more…]

Now everyone is interested in sports, but if it was puppies playing, perhaps even they would be drawn in. In Pixar’s take on a Super Bowl spot they introduce us to the Puppy Bowl, where little doggies are in competition.

It’s a great way of showing us the film’s premise, which turns the emotions of a young girl into characters inside her mind. Take a look below.

2014 is the year without a Pixar movie, but fingers crossed in 2015 we’ll get too, with The Good Dinosaur coming in November and Inside Out in the summer. While we’ve had a teaser for the latter, now it’s time for a proper trailer – and thankfully it looks like once more Pixar has taken a concept that sounds rather strange and turned it into something that could make for a great movie.
