In all honestly, I rather take this movie than any other remake that Disney has been churning out. Plus I am honestly glad they took out the woke and LGBTQ stuff off Elio, considering the title character is 11 years old.
Many years ago, I took my son to see "The Incredibles" in the theater, and it was, well, INCREDIBLE! Just an absolutely wonderful two hours, full of big ideas, big laughs, and big adventures. We left the movies that day just floating! We kept up with Pixar until "Inside Out," which was a yawner. Sad to see a once great company churning out woke garbage.
I am just a lady with an interest in animation, read the 'History of Animation' by Michael Barrier, and watched most of Disney's older films.
Computer Animation is great when it first started, Disney's first use being 'The Great Mouse Detective' and then Pixar with 'Luxo Jr.' It was a well, A Whole New World.
Why was I not interested is that I don't care for alien destruction movies. That one is totally off course. And the other, I just don't care for the Animation. It can be that I am not used to it and can't see their emotions right?
I'm more of a Looney Tunes (Old Theatrical Shorts) lady.
Thanks for the comment, Cyrus! Your insights are always appreciated. I agree with all your points, but to the first one in particular, I would much prefer an adaptation of a good book or story that has not been seen in cinema before rather than something "original" that is this derivative. I think what we are hungering for is good storytelling, original or not.
I'm not excited for Toy Story 5 by any means, but at least it's in the sure hands of Andrew Stanton, so it will probably be somewhat good? Boy oh boy
I hope so....but I have very low expectations.

This movie has no woke stuff though, they cut that all out in the final cut.
Watching the trailer, I was not interested.
