History WMG / InsideOut

...match their preferred gender. A trans boy will have male emotions, and a trans girl will have female emotions. Disgust is the most affected by gender dysphoria and is triggered to action if a trans person's parents (or whoever) try to force them to dress as and act more like their birth gender. Imagine a trans boy's parents trying to make him wear a dress, and his Joy trying to pretend to be happy, only for Disgust to take over the console when he isn't looking.

Well, Amy Poeler confirmed it get guessing people.

[[WMG: The "funny movie where the dog dies" is Marley and Me]]

* It's more likely to be Old Yeller, as that's a Disney film which has become a stock reference for sad movies.

* It could be "All dogs go to Heaven" too

On top of that. Plutchik's theory also says that all basic emotions have opposites (Joy is opposite to Sadness, Anger is opposite to Fear ect) and that all emotions can mix together to create new ones (e.g. Joy and Anger make Pride, Fear and Sadness make Despair)

I'm aware WordOfGod said Surprise was covered by Fear. But I personally don't like that explanation since it doesns't reflect how surprise realy works. Surprise isn't just about jumpscares, it can be a positive thing as well. In real life surprise is a "brief" emotion that is usually followed my another emotion, Fear only being one of them.

Trust is thought of as a "belife system", so it could be represented by the Personality Island which represent Riely's belife systems. Anticipation could be the daydreams, as they help Riely to plan ahead and predict things.

Surprise is built into the console and makes the person react in a surpised way until the appropriate emotion takes over. Notice in the end credits when Jordan see's Riley. An "girl" alarm goes off in his head, yet non of his emotions are at the console (Fear is notably in the corner crying) yet Jordan is still in shock. His consol made him feel surprise, but his emotions didn't take over, so he stayed surpised.

Basically. All six of Ekmans emotions are there. But only five of them are characters and the sixth is the consols default emotion.
** This makes sense in a certain way-- one of the primary functions of the console is to show emotions ''new things''.

** Personality islands constantly change shape or disappear only to be replaced by new ones (unstable sense of self/identity disturbance).

** The interior of headquarters changes when "splitting" occurs (going back and forth between seeing a person as all good or all bad). When someone else is seen as all good, the room is filled with warmth, bright light, and beautiful music. When they're seen as all bad, flashing red lights and emergency sirens immediately start going off.

** Disgust regularly belittles the other emotions (self-loathing), [[FisherKing causing Headquarters or even the mental world itself to become structurally unstable.]] In particular, every time after Fear and Anger have exhausted themselves from fighting over the console, Disgust yells at them and says something like "Look at you two! You have one job and you can't even do it right! Look what always happens because of you!" In extreme cases, Disgust may cause the person to self-harm or even attempt suicide, possibly helped or agreed with by Sadness.

** Joy causes the person to engage in risky behavior, trying to chase happiness, but it's always short-lived (feelings of emptiness).

* ADHD (speaking from personal experience): A million TV screens all playing at the same time, blasting different TV programs, songs, videos, lists, news feeds, etc.

* Antisocial personality disorder: Sadness either isn't doing her job or is being prevented from doing it, keeping the person unable to empathize with others (or maybe she's not there at all). Joy may take enjoyment in hurting others and seeing them suffer.

* PTSD: A Core Memory of the traumatic event keeps being triggered.
* Schizophrenia: The emotions see and hear things through the person's eyes that aren't there, and react accordingly.

On the other end of the spectrum, we have Sadness, who represents a creative mind who wishes to challenge audiences with more emotion than just blind amusement. Sadness wants Riley (and therefore, the audience) to watch these movies and go through multiple emotions. At the end, Sadness has inspired Joy and the other emotions to work together to make Riley's life more meaningful. And that's what this movie does. It presents itself as a silly comedy about little people in your head, but then it makes you feel all the emotions you see onscreen - sometimes more than one at a time. Which is really what Pixar does best.

** Define "win back the crowd." If you mean critics, then Brave already did that as not only did it gain generally positive reviews, it won the Oscar. Box office-wise, they've never had a need to win back the crowd. If you're attempting to speak for the ENTIRE fanbase, then the next time you do that, please don't. That is going into very YMMV territory right there. There's a reason BrokenBase and BaseBreakingCharacter are a part of tYMMV.

** I like this WMG because something similar happened to Harold from ''Disney/TheLittleMermaid'' and the Music Box from ''Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast''. These 2 characters were meant to be minor characters in their respective films, until they were essentially demoted to TheCameo. But at least they weren't deleted entirely. I think it would be great if that's what happened to Gloom.

** that's really not how autism works.

* While all of Mom's emotions *are* female, Dad's Joy and Disgust (and maybe his Sadness, though we don't get a good look at her/him) do appear to be female. They just have moustaches.
