How I'm waiting for Inside Out 2! I'm going there this Saturday. I hope it is worthy of the hype created. Russian Russian voices are just a pity that we will not have voice acting due to the departure of Disney, plus the grandiose last Russian cast could be assembled only once a century, but the new voice acting is also very good!
I haven't seen the second movie yet, but the entire point of the first movie is that emotions are not just "positive" or "negative." Sadness is also empathy. Anger is also a sense of justice. Fear is also self-preservation. Disgust is also your sense of personal taste. And joy, when taken too far, can become denial and repression.
Maybe that's supposed to be the point, but sadness isn't empathy, it's neediness--it's what gets people to help you. There's dialog where this is called out and I don't recall anything to support the idea that it's your "empathy", only that it triggers others' empathy. Sadness's action in making Riley return after running away is selfishly-motivated: she'll feel bad because of her missing her parents; not, she'll feel bad because the consequences of her actions make others suffer.
I really hated this movie so it's not like I've rewatched it; but while I'm fairly sure you're right, that "'negative' emotions have positive aspects" is a theme, I'm also fairly sure that sadness's positive aspects have to do with self-protection, not empathy for others. In the scene where sadness comforts Bing-Bong her self-described actions were only that their feelings were aligned, not that she has more empathy in general.
I just watched this 2 days ago, so that made it pretty easy. I honestly thought it was a great movie though. I think the writers did a fantastic job depicting the emotions and how it could look in real life. The part with the panic attack at least seemed pretty realistic from my experience.
Idk what exactly but its the same
I wonder if french people have ennui in English
