Why are people hating elemental | Fandom (2025)

I mean, I have actually seen it and it's not everyone's cup of tea. Some people really liked it (my cousins and I wound up taking my little sister to see it for her birthday and the two of them both thought it was good), and others weren't as into it (such as myself). The plot is fine, it's just not as open as other Pixar films are since it's more romance heavy. People who aren't as interested in the relationship between the main characters don't understand why it doesn't fit the main Pixar formula, which again is fine. And to me, it felt a little long.

Another thing would be the animation style, it looks a little weird at times. Like when Ember is sad and her head gets smaller (like her flame is dying a little) but her eyes and mouth don't and it wound up looking like one of those Instagram filters.

I could be one of those people who dislikes a film without even watching it. However, I value a good reputation over clicks and views on my posts, and one of the ways how I believe I can keep a good reputation is to watch a film first before creating concrete opinions.

I could have barked that Strange World was extremely terrible without seeing it. However, I waited to form an opinion until I have watched it. It was definitely in the bottom 10 of the Disney Animated Canon for me; however, it had some good points and was kind of enjoyable. Yes, it is a not stellar Disney film, but it is so much better than Chicken Little, Mars Needs Moms, and Home on the Range.

I won't be posting that Elemental is a hot garbage mess without seeing it. When I do, I'll provide my concrete thoughts on it....

When it is available in a few months.
