Inside Out - The Ultimate Trivia...

Film Trivia Metaverse

INSIDE OUT 
THE ULTIMATE TRIVIA COLLECTION 
  
FROM THE MOVIE DIRECTED BY PETE DOCTER 
  
CREATED BY FILM TRIVIA METAVERSE 
  
ABOUT THE FILM 
Inside Out is an animated film that explores the emotions inside the mind of an 11-year-old girl named Riley. After moving to a new city, Riley’s emotions—Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust—must work together to help her navigate the challenges of adjusting to her new life. The film delves into themes of growing up, emotional growth, and the complexity of feelings, portraying how both positive and negative emotions play a crucial role in shaping one’s personality and experiences. It blends humor, adventure, and heartfelt moments while providing a unique look at the human mind. 
  
TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
  
“At the end of the movie with the cat, the background poster reads "sure locks for homes," a playful reference to Sherlock Holmes.” 
  
“Bing Bong reminisces over a recent memory of Riley, feeling she has grown too large to fit in the wagon. This moment leads to a quiet realization that his time is running out and he may be a burden.” 
  
“Bing Bong's final line is often misquoted as "Take her to the moon for me, Joy." The actual line is "Take her to the moon for me, okay?" 
  
“Joy is often viewed as the only positive emotion in the movie, while the other emotions are seen as negative. However, the film shows that no emotion is inherently positive or negative.”

Art Monsters - Unruly Bodies in...

Lauren Elkin

Coming across the term "art monster" in Jenny Offill's 2014 novel Dept. of Speculation, Lauren Elkin was intrigued. What kinds of connections might there be between art and monstrosity, and how was it different when the artist in question was a woman? 
 
 
 
Art Monsters is a landmark feminist intervention in the way we think about women's stories and bodies, calling attention to a radical genealogy of feminist art that not only reacts against patriarchy but redefines its own aesthetic aims. Exploring a rich lineage of visual artists, thinkers, and writers, Elkin examines the ways feminists have confronted the problem of how to tell the truth of their experiences as bodies. Queer bodies, sick bodies, raced bodies, female bodies: What are the languages of the body, and what are the materials we need to transcribe them? Above all, how can we use the notion of the feminist "art monster" to shape how we live our lives? 
 
 
 
Writing in the tradition of Susan Sontag and Maggie Nelson, Elkin demonstrates her power as a cultural critic in this erudite and engaging book. From Kara Walker's silhouettes to Theresa Hak Kyung Cha's trilingual masterpiece Dictee, Art Monsters daringly weaves links between disparate artists and writers, and shows that their work offers a potent defense of beauty and excess, sentiment and touch, ambiguity and opacity.
