I wasn't as over the moon about it as some others may be in the coming weeks. Really solid, enjoyable film. Loved watching it. But I don't count it among the year's or Pixar's best. Worth highlighting where I highlighted it.

That was my fear.

I really want to love it, though.

If I haven't already explicitly nominated then I second all those.
Those are my principles, and if you don't like them... well, I have others.
