Only reason I knew it existed was because I went to D23 expo with my wife who is a pretty big Disney fan. I enjoy lots of dis/pix/marv/star wars stuff so it was really fun. There was a couple of standees and photo opportunities with props for Strange World. I'm pretty 'online' and in the loop on movies and had no clue when it was coming out. I asked a Disney employee and was stunned it was so soon.

How do what is essentially Disney super fans not even know when they are releasing a Pixar movie? Insane.

I thought the movie was pretty good when I saw it and felt it would definitely be a good movie to take kids to.

I think the discourse from the bigots brought the movie down a little, but the marketing was abysmal. It's actually possible that homophobes boosted the movie by telling people it exists.
