Get in the zone, because we’re about to get existential. Derek and Doug are joined by Melissa Mowry to discuss a movie about living, dying, inspiration, and disappointment. We’re talking about Soul, Pixar’s first film to feature a Black protagonist and Black co-director, Pixar's first and a very rare occurrence in American feature-length animation. How does Pixar tackle telling a universal story through the lens of a Black musician in New York City? Well, there’s plenty to praise and plenty to shine a critical light upon. Grab a slice, put on some jazz, and enjoy.

Film Release: December 25, 2020

It's been a year since we've talked about a Pixar movie, but Derek & Doug are back! And so are the emotions in the mind of Riley Andersen as she navigates being thirteen years old. With four new emotions to manage and the legacy of one of Pixar's best to live up to, how does this sequel nine years in the making stack up?

It’s a... sports movie? Derek and Doug discuss the one movie that neither of them had seen prior to starting the podcast and the third entry in Pixar’s most polarizing series, Cars 3! It ignores the second film pretty much entirely, deals with themes more akin to Toy Story or Up, and passes the legacy of Lightning McQueen down to an unexpected protégé. Does Cars 3 correct the mistakes of Cars 2? Will this franchise ever end? And how did Doug feel about the one Pixar film he’d never seen? Tune in and find out!

Derek and Doug are joined by friend of the podcast Josh to talk about the final lunch meeting movie released nearly 15 years after it was conceived: WALL-E. Why did it take so long, and how did the final product benefit from the wait? What can we take away from Pixar’s ambitious post-apocalyptic romance? And is WALL-E a creep or nah? Stay 'til the end to hear us chat with an Amazon worker about how their experience working for the real-life giant corporation colors the way they view WALL-E and its fictional giant corporation, Buy n Large!

Derek and Doug are joined by Kevin from The 3028 podcast to talk about Pixar’s critically acclaimed, commercially successful, but often overlooked culinary masterpiece Ratatouille. How does a film with a strange-but-perfect recipe for success—a recipe that garnished, er, garnered it plenty of success at the time—end up leaving a seemingly rodent-sized cultural footprint? Listen to find out our theories! And stay for dessert with a special guest: Doug’s brother, a professional chef!

It’s the Cars episode! Derek and Doug are joined by Dallin and Amanda from the Lost in the Vault Podcast to try to determine: does Cars cross the finish line strong, or is it Pixar’s first wreck?

Derek and Doug leave their capes at home and suit up for a very important mission: dissect The Incredibles, Pixar’s iconic superhero movie and first film to feature an entirely human cast. For the first time ever, Pixar tapped an outside director and gave them more creative control than ever before. Clearly the risk paid off, but what did that mean for Pixar—and for animation as a medium—moving forward? Listen in and find out!

It’s a spy movie!? Derek and Doug are talking about Cars 2, a film derided by many as Pixar’s worst and a low-point for the studio. But is Cars 2 actually a bad movie? Stunning destinations across the globe, a star-studded cast, a plot involving Big Oil, and... more machine guns than you’d expect? Lots to consider in our conversation about this very weird, very unexpected spy comedy set in the world of Cars.

Well, we did it. Derek and Doug watched every movie currently in the Pixar Animation Studios canon and don’t have any other movies to talk about until Elemental comes out. So what better time to look back on the entirety of the canon, reflect on Pixar’s nearly-thirty years of feature films, and update our personal rankings.
