Falling With Style: A Pixar Movie Marathon

Derek and Doug are joined by special guest Vicki from the Novel Gaming Podcast (@NovelGamingPod) to discuss Pixar’s first—and for many years, only—sequel. How does it compare narratively to the first? In what ways did Pixar up the ante for their third feature film? And why is it such a miracle that Toy Story 2 even exists? Listen in to find out!

Derek and Doug are back to burrow into A Bug’s Life, Pixar’s insect-centric sophomore showing. In some ways, it’s a perfect follow-up to the smash hit Toy Story, in others it’s a bit perplexing, and oddly, this story of ants finding their collective strength against an oppressive gang of grasshoppers feels more relevant and important than ever.

In the inaugural episode of Falling With Style, Derek and Doug talk about the movie that launched one of the most acclaimed animation studios in history, permanently changed the animated film landscape, and introduced an unforgettable world where our toys come alive and love us as much as we love them: it’s Toy Story!
