Yeah they really dropped the ball there. I wasn't interested at all by the trailer. It looked like their least inventive yet.

It lacked the wide age range appeal other Pixar movies manage to pull off. I didn't like the fundamental elements as a metaphor for race/culture either, it's sort of racist to imply people of different backgrounds are so fundamentally different like that, although it did serve as a strong visual for the story. It would have been more accurate if the characters were projecting fundamental differences on to the same element, like different phases of water or something. That was the only real thing I thought was actually wrong with it, otherwise it just lacked the magic that other Pixar movies have.

That is 100% why I didn't care. Hell a friend of mine had a copy and I wasn't even interested cuz the trailer made it sound like the most 2008 thing to ever exist

We don't really read the reviews for anything. We pirate everything cause fuck corporations. Our kids never saw anything about elemental but the cover. They love it.

Is it worth watching, though?

What was your impression of "Clod?"

Damn, that sounds cool. As a third culture kid, these stories hit just right.
