Special Thanks To Prompter People For Sponsoring Today's Episode! Start Creating now at https://www.PrompterPeople.com Inside Out 2 was such a beautiful movie, wasn't it, loyal Theorist? And after a few hits and misses, we're happy that Pixar is back on track with a success. So you just knew that we couldn't let this movie slide. Today we're exploring Riley's psychological state to see what emotions would _really_ be in control of her. Will anxiety, ennui, joy, and anger stick around? Or could other emotions take control? Strap in for one emotional roller coaster! ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ *Credits:* Writers: Bob Chipman and Forrest Lee Editors: Jerika (NekoOnigiri), Danial "BanditRants" Keristoufi, and Koen Verhagen Sound Designer: Yosi Berman Thumbnail Artist: DasGnomo ‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐ Need Royalty Free Music for your Content?

I could imagine a character called Passion being introduced where he is just a super energetic, intense, and maybe a little crazy character and is basically the hype man of the group and when Riley is feeling an emotion “passionately” it could be him cheering on the one at the console.

Honestly, I felt like Disgust was doing the job of "Love" in the second movie. Yes, there's the funny moments with the action character and her knowing Riley's crushes, but I thought it made sense with how she's described in the movies. She knows what Riley hates, dislikes, and is disgusted by. So of course she'd know the opposite; what Riley enjoys, likes, and loves. I think it'd be interesting for future movies if Disgust had to "switch jobs" or learn to handle more work, especially as Riley gets older and wants to have a more mature, adult relationship with someone.

Something I noticed is that in the movie the adults are also controlled by just the "big 5", and at the end Riley's mom's anxiety is shown for a moment and her sadness says "Welcome back, Anxiety", which heavily implies that the emotions we met in Inside Out 2 are not permanent and adults actually get more numb again, and I do wonder if that is something we see in real life.

Minor correction: from what I've heard, the emotions don't so much pilot Riley as they do just dictate how she's feeling at any given moment (which, go figure, is the purpose of emotions). Riley still retains her agency independent of them, and it's been shown her mind can accept or reject any of the idea lightbulbs the emotions give. Also at one point in developing the first movie, they did consider Surprise as an emotion but figured that it was too close to Fear, so they just kinda merged those ideas into Fear.

I think asking how many emotions there are is like asking how many colours there are. As many as we name.
