movies/tv How many here are Hyped for Finding Dory?

[Lunatone 39]

I know I am!

 

I've always loved Finding Nemo as a kid; you could say it had the biggest influence on me growing up, as well as my all time favourite movie Twister. Now that Finding Dory, which is practically a sequel to Finding Nemo, is about to be released, after 13 years or so, it's the definition of giga, mega, ultra hype XD. At least to me.

 

Not to mention who doesn't love Ellen DeGeneres?

 

Tell me your input on this upcoming film!

My brothers and I are pretty much as hyped as anyone else who grew up with Pixar and the like.  Quite a lot. 

[Emiko Gale 199]

Not necessarily hyped but I am excited. I am not sure what to expect because I never expected Finding Memo to get a sequel but it's Pixar...I'm sure it'll be heartwarming.

[Megas 27,243]

I'm skeptical. Finding Nemo is one of those movies I don't feel needed a sequel. But at the very least I'm hoping the same kind of heart and effort is put into this one as it was the first movie

I agree with you 100% actually. I'm just excited for the fact that it's going to be something new, and better than most of the films that are out in the industry.

Has it really been 13 years?! Well, I guess it's due a sequel treatment. I hope they have more screen time for the younger generation (Squirt and Nemo), they should have an adventure of their own. That would be cool. 

I'm sure Pixar put a lot of good effort into this one. It is one of their staple properties so I don't think they'll just make a quick knock-off.

I'm really looking forward to it! I just very much hope it does not disappoint.

Finding Nemo is a film I always greatly enjoy, so after so long I can't wait until Finding Dory. I definitely wish for it to turn out well!

[cmarston1 5,955]

I am a bit skeptical about it to be honest.

I am not really liking how many sequels Pixar has making and will be making these past few years.

And I don't think Nemo really needed a follow up.

Nope. Not the least bit interested, to be honest

[LHfunk 422]

I can't wait! Pixar has been doing well with movies recently (I can't speak for the Good Dinosuar though) and I've been excited for Finding Dory for a while. It looks pretty good I don't see how they could mess it up badly.

[PinkiePie97 913]

Finding Nemo is my favorite movie, so I'm definitely looking forward to Finding Dory.

[Guest]

It looks super cute so I am going to see it when I can. Plus Ellen is an amazing human being.

[Member Berry 1,217]

YES! I loved Finding Nemo

[Lisa 5,552]

Finding Nemo is my absolute favourite childhood movie so yeah, I'm definitely going to see it.

[TheAnimationFanatic 3,571]

Absolutely. The original is by far one of Pixar's best films.

[An Unknown Pony. 370]

Definately looking forward to it,would love to see Nemo/marlin switching roles with dory

[Carolina 212]

Didn't see another thread for this movie, so will post here. Saw it yesterday and thought it was great. Maybe not on the same level as either Finding Nemo or Inside Out, but still exciting and with a lot of heart.

 

So, when I saw the first one, I assumed "short term memory loss" was a common trait for Blue Tangs or at the very least something that runs in Dory's family. Turns out that it is specific to Dory instead, which I actually think is a better way to go. As for Dory's parents, they may well be the best Disney parents I've seen, not to mention a great portrayal of parents with a child with a disability!

 

I liked how Marlin's relationship with Dory was expanded on in the movie. It was cool to see that, even though he is patient with her, he sometimes still gets annoyed/angry with her. Nice to see him using some of what Dory (inadvertently) taught him in the first one. Nemo was just kind of "there" in this though: cute and had some sassiness, but mostly irrelevant.

 

As for the newbies, Hank the "septapus" was the obvious stand-out (although I wonder if Octopi can breathe on land as he was shown to), but Bailey and Destiny were fun too. One thing I wondered about was the seal who seemed to be a stereotype of mentally disabled people. I thought he was funny, but I could see people taking offence, especially given how the other seals treated him. Kind of surprising as other characters with disabilities (Dory, Destiny, Hank, Nemo) are portrayed so tastefully and positively.

 

But the real surprise/break out character was PIPER!!!

 

 

 

OMG!!!! SOOOOOOOO cute! I wish they made stuffed animals of her! By far the best Pixar Short that actually fit the theme of the feature to boot!

I'm kind of skeptical. I mean, Finding Nemo was my favorite movie growing up, but at the same time, I usually don't trust movie sequels that came out 13 years after the original, plus Finding Nemo didn't really "need" a sequel per se. I'll probably see that, but I might keep the bar low so I'm not too disappointed. I've heard it's getting good reviews, so that's nice to know though.

I got tickets ordered coming in the mail so I should be able to see it soonish. :3

[Vulcan 3,254]

So excited. I loved finding nemo. 

 

 

I hope it lives up to my expectations ^ ^

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,607]

Most definitely. This movie and BFG are the two films I actually REALLY want to see this year. Finding Nemo is such a wonderful film, I remember seeing it in theaters and absolutely loving it. I have a strong feeling this will be no different. I just can't believe it has been this long since Nemo.

[Sparklz_Dash 69]

TOTALLLLLYYYYYYY! I actually watched Finding Nemo the first time in a plane and I forgot to pack my stuff before the plane landed. oops XD
