greetings and welcome to earthling
cinema i am your host garyx wormuloid
this week's artifact is finding dory a
sequel so necessary
it only took Pixar 13 years to come up
with an idea our protagonist is Dory a
fluorescent talking frisbee who lives in
one of Earth's seven billion oceans with
their best friend Nemo's dad which ocean
unfortunately most human Globes and
place mats have been lost so I can't be
any more Pacific than that but probably
the Atlantic speaking of information
lapses Dory has a bad memory
I suffered from short-term memory loss
which is her defining and only character
trait then suddenly for no reason at all
she remembers her frisbee family Nemo's
dad and his son decide to go help Dory
find them but before you know it
Dory gets separated from the group and
is captured by some college Bros looking
to play some ultimate the college Bros
work part-time at a marina because it's
a super chill place to just zone out and
look at nature you know soon dory learns
that the other frisbees are being taken
to Cleveland which is the last thing
anyone ever wants to hear meanwhile
Nemo's dad and Nemo managed to get into
the marina with the help of a mentally
challenged eagle aka the symbol of
America they find Dory down in the pipes
because isn't that where everything ends
up maybe they could look for my wedding
ring while they're down there the gang
makes their way to the frisbee enclosure
but none of the other frisbees are named
Dory's parents an octopus that I forgot
to mention earlier because he's not that
important comes to help out but he sucks
so bad at helping out the Dory gets
dropped down the drain and Nemo and his
dad are put on the truck to Cleveland
which again tough break fellas back in
the ocean Dory comes across a trail of
shells and remembers that her parents
used to be all about shell trails back
in the day it was like their version of
pogs which were a 1990s earth version of
warp drive crystals Dory follows the
trail and yep there are parents just
waiting around for her this whole time
when logic and probability were
screaming at them to move on with their
lives
but miraculously reuniting with her
Emily isn't enough for dory she also
wants her friends to not get imprisoned
what a selfish
she finagles her way onto the Cleveland
truck hi Jackson and crashes it into the
water and they all live happily ever
after except the other drivers on that
Highway who all died
finding Dory explores what it means to
live with a disability under Obamacare
we see the difficulties Dory has
explaining her disability and
interacting with normies I'm sorry I'm
sorry okay
Nemo's dad in particular gets frustrated
with Dory's inability to remember stuff
good like he can good go wait over there
and forget it's what you do best
occasionally we see the cruelty that
disabled individuals can experience such
as when the - sea lions bully a smaller
less anthropomorphic sea lion but Dory
is not the only disabled character the
octopus is missing an arm you're not an
octopus you're acceptable this giant
spotted sea horse is nearsighted and
this albino sea horse is a Woody Allen
level hypochondriac my just without all
the uncomfortable baggage indeed the
overwhelming message is one of anti
institutionalization that the
differently-abled belong in society as
much as the same ly abled wrist
rehabilitation and relief when we first
meet them several characters have
internalized the idea that they are less
than and are resigned to live out their
days locked in a Marvel's Luke Cage the
octopus is such an octopus II about
reintegration that he prefers to be
permanently institutionalized I just
want to live in a glass box alone Dory
who has crossed the ocean twice despite
her goofed up noodle gives the animals
confidence that they can function in
everyday society they unite behind her
cause and thereby find the courage to
leave their hellhole paradise another
prevalent theme is the idea that one's
life is determined by destiny which
coincidentally is one of the characters
names not dory a different character
acting on instinct is rewarded because
it allows destiny to take the wheel what
is so great about plans I never had a
plan the best things happen by chance
because that's life dory always acts on
instinct because she is less able to
evaluate decisions based on past
experiences except sometimes when you
least expect it while her impulsive
actions appear dangerous they always
take her wear a frisbee needs to go
which is a dog's mouth I think we should
get it says definitely in comparison
Nemo's dad over analyzes everything from
what to wear in the morning to what sort
of fish insurance to buy he evaluates
potential actions through the filter of
his past traumas most notably the plot
of the first movie when he tries to make
calculated decisions all he does is make
it harder for destiny to run its course
it is only when Nemo's dad follows
Dory's example that he is able to stop
ruining everything for everyone what do
we do
she wouldn't even think twice she would
just look at the first thing she sees
and ultimately however it is not
instinct hardwork or even the power of
positive thinking that leads to dori
success you did it it's the power of
good old-fashioned plot development Dori
is able to spontaneously overcome her
disability for narrative purposes such
as when she sees a shell triggering a
detailed memory that fills in crucial
parts of her backstory and advances her
mission or the whole beginning something
important it seems the most powerful
force in the Pixar universe is the need
for a happy ending seems like a pretty
good stopping point No
