Emotional Rescue

A few months ago I posted a series of Nine Other Emotions That Didn't Make The Cut In Pixar's "Inside/Out." It was a humorous look at, well, other emotional characters that didn't make it into the movie.

Looks like my little post was more accurate than I realized. According to Pete Docter, co-director of the film, the original story idea featured far more than five main emotion characters, including ones such as Schadenfreude, Hope, Pride and Ennui.

Before they whittled them down, the plan was to feature a whopping twenty six emotion characters. Twenty six! Can you believe it?

Are there even that many emotions? Surely not.

The only ones I'm personally familiar with are Rage, Intense Rage, Searing Rage, Blind Rage, White Hot Rage and Intense White Hot Searing Blinding Rage. That's only six. But I guess those Pixar guys know what they're talking about.

Nine Other Emotions That Didn't Make The Cut In Pixar's "Inside Out"

Pixar's done it again! Critics and audiences alike have fallen in love with the studio's latest film, Inside Out. It's the story of a young girl named Riley and the wacky cast of personified emotions who live inside her head and control her life.

The movie features five different emotions that control the life of young Riley: Joy, Sadness, Fear, Disgust and Anger. According to director Pete Docter, the original script featured dozens of other emotional characters, including Dread, Obsession and Mortification. Unfortunately many of these had to be dropped for time and story purposes, as they whittled the cast down to just five.

The staff here at Bob Canada's BlogWorld was lucky enough to get their hands on a few of the model sheets for these deleted characters, and are presenting them here for the first time.
