Original Poster
"Pixar used Disney’s D23 Expo to reveal a new toon pic. Elio is about an 11-year-old boy who finds himself transported across the galaxy and is mistaken for the intergalactic Ambassador for our Planet Earth.

Yonas Kibreab (Obi-Won Kenobi) stars as Elio, with America Ferrera as his mom, Olga Solis. The pic is directed by Annie Award-winning Coco co-helmer and screenwriter Adrian Molina and produced by Mary Alice Drumm (Coco)."

Pixar is scheduled to release the teaser trailer for Elio today.


Looks cute, but looking forward to an actual trailer before making any decision on the film. I got a few small chuckles, and it looks pretty.

I'm still not convinced this will be a box office hit given Pixar's track record of late as well as similar sci-fi animated films underperform (Home, Mars Needs Mom, Lightyear, etc.).

Maybe an alien will try cutting the nosy kid’s nose, too:

This looks aggressively bad.

"Hey guys, what if we did Mars Needs Moms but in reverse and in the art style of Turning Red."

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant.
beat me to it. after watching the teaser i was getting mars needs moms vibes. it’s a teaser & i don’t want to sound judgey already, but i wasn’t that impressed.

But..but...but... Pixar is saving money by reusing Luca and Turning Red's assets!
They really need to put Stitch in there.

So we have Mars needs Moms, Lilo & Stitch and awkward kid with an eye patch from Turning Red. Pixar is so doomed.

That looks interesting, but I have a bad feeling it'll flop. And it might be the end of........Good Lord! I need to stop that!

Pixar has never had great teaser trailers in my opinion. I remember watching the first incredibles trailer with him trying to get his pants on thinking, what the? But the movie ended up being great. I used to just give the benefit of the doubt. Now I'm not nearly as confident.

I guess I am the outlier here, because I thought this actually looked kind of sweet and funny. Honestly, I am more interested in seeing this than Wish based on what I've seen so far.

Are people really comparing it to this?


That movie would have been better if it DID look like Elio.
