Wow, Disney Really Went There With New 'Elio' Post: ‘Stop Complaining That Disney Doesn’t Make Original Stories If You Don’t Show Up To Movie Theaters.’

This past week saw the release of Pixar’s latest film, "Elio," which is about a space-loving young boy who finds himself on an adventure of intergalactic proportions when he bonds with alien life forms. As of late, most of Pixar’s sequels have been the more successful films, so this latest feature represents a project from the studio that doesn’t come from an existing IP. With that, the studio and its parent company, Disney, are encouraging audiences to support the film, and based on a post, they seem to mean business. By way of a recent Instagram post, Pixar followed the new internet trend where people share hard truths off-screen and then pretend they don’t know where the source of the statement is. The studio's video involved a social media personality talking about audiences complaining that there aren’t any original stories but that audiences don’t show up to the movie theaters to support these original ideas in the first place. The video was blunt and ended with the pundit encouraging people to show up to the theaters to support "Elio" this week.
