Elemental (2023)	comment	Elemental is a 2023 animated romantic fantasy comedy film from Pixar, their twenty-seventh feature film. The film is directed by Peter Sohn and produced by Denise Ream, and was released on June 16, 2023.This story is set in a world where people are made out of one of the Classical Elements (air, earth, water and fire), which is demonstrated from their various abilities and even the way they move. However, because they are made of the elements, interactions can get tense. A bump with a fire elemental can accidentally burn the plants off an earth elemental's body but exposure to water can extinguish a fire person, even permanently if too much.This doesn't stop all four from living in Element City, a city whose architecture is built around the elements but has a subsection called Firetown - an area filled by fire elemental immigrants who after facing discrimination from the other three elements grew into its own community.The film follows Ember Lumen (Leah Lewis). A resident from Firetown who believes she's destined to take over her father's shop, but has a tendency to lose her temper in fiery outbursts. Literally. Set to prove that she can control her temper and take over the shop so he can retire, her dad gives her an opportunity to run the shop by herself on a sale day. Unfortunately, as the rush of customers proves overwhelming, she hides herself in the basement to let her emotions out and her flames cause the pipes to burst.Not only do the pipes flood the basement with water, but they also spit out a water elemental named Wade Ripple (Mamoudou Athie), a go-with-the-flow city inspector who writes up the shop due to seeing the building's numerous code violations. Not wanting the place to get shut down, Ember chases after him so she can get the tickets cancelled.Eventually, Wade's sympathy opens him up to finding a new way forward for them all, but soon they both realize one crucial detail: Firetown isn't supposed to have water. As they try to find the source and fix it before losing the store, they begin to grow a bond of mutual attraction, though one that Ember would prefer to keep quiet for now.As they grow closer, it turns out fixing the leak is only the beginning of the journey. And several important questions begin to develop. Can a relationship between fire and water work? Why is taking over the shop so important to Ember? Does she have any of her own dreams or talents? And ultimately, what does she really want out of life?Previews: Teaser, Trailer

Elemental (2023) / int_19ebe383	type	Never Trust a Trailer
Elemental (2023) / int_19ebe383	comment	Never Trust a Trailer: Cinder telling Ember "elements cannot mix" when talking about Wade in the trailer goes unused in the final film, where she instead says "fire and water cannot be together". Coupled with Ember's misleading dialogue preceding right before it: "we live by one simple rule", it sounds as if all four elements stick to their own. In the film, a crucial aspect of Element City is that it's a place founded by water elementals who later welcomed earth and wind elementals to form a cosmopolitan city, with Bernie and Cinder being the first of a growing but presently isolated fire elemental community. Despite initial prejudices against fire, the city did shut down water to Firetown because it's a genuine hazard to fire elementals, and the city is at least starting on the path to full integration. Most of the friction in the film comes from Ember being introduced to the world beyond her community and struggling to adapt.

Elemental (2023) / int_1ba8eb64	comment	Visual Pun: Let's face it, the Big Damn Kiss between Ember and Wade is very steamy. Alternatively, it could be seen as a hot wet kiss. The word wave normally is used literally when meaning "a certain movement of water", and metaphorically when refering to "crowd of people making a coordinated movement, usually in a sports stadium". In this movie, sport watchers do a wave in the latter sense... But because they're water elementals, this also causes/is a wave in the literal sense.

They then entwine their fingers and embrace, showing that Ember's fears were for nothing.

So when Wade is suddenly thrust into the shop, he notes that none of it is up to code and has to write citations for their many violations.note Bernie appears to have gotten away with it as long as he has because the city just shut off water service to Firetown rather than risk dealing with any leaks, so they never bothered doing inspections for plumbing no one was using.

Elemental (2023) / int_4ee61c1f	comment	The solution Ember and Wade came up with to fix the broken spillway door is a seal made of glass, made from sand melted by Ember. It stops the leakage and even stands up to being whacked by a hammer, but it isn't designed to hold against the repeated stress of water impacting the door every time a boat passes through, cracking bit by bit as time passes. It parallels with Ember's suppression of her own desires and the lies she makes just to make her father happy, and naturally the seal breaks shortly after her father finds out the truth.

Elemental (2023) / int_53677c0e	comment	Generational Trauma: There are shades of this in Ember's family history. Before Bernie left with Cinder to Element City, his father refused to return a traditional bow while renouncing him for his decision to leave Fire Land. This in turn pushes Bernie to put his heart and soul into the Fireplace as running the store and providing for his wife and daughter is all he has left in the world. It doesn't help that he lost his first store in Fire Land because of a major storm. This becomes a heavy lift for his daughter Ember who doesn't want to let his sacrifices be in vain, thus she sets herself up to accept ownership when she knows that she really isn't cut out for the job.

Elemental (2023) / int_57b80b45	comment	Fantastic Racism: Citizens of the different elements struggling to get along with each other can be seen as an allegory for conflicts of real-life diverse cultures/identities. As shown in the beginning, Bernie and Cinder were subjected to racist reactions from the other elements upon their arrival to Element City. They were even turned down by potential home renters because they were fire people. It gets toned down in present day, as none of the other elements react in disgust or contempt to Ember's presence whenever she visits the city; however, it's clear that some anti-fire prejudice lingers, as Wade's uncle praises Ember for how "well and clear" she speaks.

Director Peter Sohn has said they are directly inspired by his Korean immigrant parents. They are immigrants who came to Element City by boat after a disaster destroyed their home. Their language is unpronounceable to the locals so they take new names. Immigrants gather in ethnic neighborhoods. Ember's mother is a matchmaker who uses incense in her rituals. They sacrifice a lot to make a life for themselves and their child feels guilty for wanting to pursue a path different from theirs.

They argue about the best way to save Bernie's shop, and Ember crumples in a heap of stress. Wade kneels down to comfort her and they come to a mutual understanding, just as the sun meets the ocean on the horizon. The solution Ember and Wade came up with to fix the broken spillway door is a seal made of glass, made from sand melted by Ember. It stops the leakage and even stands up to being whacked by a hammer, but it isn't designed to hold against the repeated stress of water impacting the door every time a boat passes through, cracking bit by bit as time passes. It parallels with Ember's suppression of her own desires and the lies she makes just to make her father happy, and naturally the seal breaks shortly after her father finds out the truth.

At the end of the movie, her father does retire, but he entrusts a pair of frequent visitors to take over the store instead and encourages his daughter to travel the world.

At the end of the movie, Clod instead flirts with a younger fire girl closer to his own age, but this time he's more successful, as she giggles in response to his flirting, and in the credits sequence, they are later seen going on a cycle ride and then a boat ride together.

Bernie did this to his father as he and Cinder prepared to leave the Fire Land, but his father was so disappointed in Bernie's decision to leave that he didn't return it.

Elemental (2023) / int_9d12bbc1	comment	Foreshadowing: There's a scene in the beginning where Cinder predicts a soap opera character denying their love for another. Ember ends up rejecting her love for Wade in the third act out of a sense of responsibility to her father's sacrifices. In the few instances where Ember has physical contact with another Elemental, it's never shown to be dangerous, merely inconvenient (e.g. an Earth Elemental gets his grassy skin burned off, but is otherwise fine). Sure enough, when she and Wade finally touch, neither is hurt. Whenever Ember is left in charge of running the store, she quickly loses control when interacting with the pesky customers and explodes in anger. This hints towards The Reveal that she isn't suited to handle the job and that she doesn't want to run the store after all. Ember's glass seal on the broken dam canal is strong and seemingly sturdy, but the film often cuts back to that seal, showing small cracks within as the water keeps spilling over from the tracks. Sure enough, the seal breaks at the film's climax, with the flash flood heading towards Firetown. After the airball match, Gale said that Ember and Wade are lucky they're a cute couple, foreshadowing Ember and Wade's relationship later on in the movie. In a flashback, Wade got stuck in a sponge that absorbed him, until someone presumably squeezed him out. Later in the movie, when Wade evaporated, his steam got absorbed into the concrete ceiling which slowly condenses back into liquid. He is brought back to life shortly after. When Ember and Wade first met in the flooding basement, Wade was holding a picture of Ember as a young child with her family celebrating her birthday. Later in the movie when the shop flooded and before Ember and Wade got trapped in the small room you can see the picture underwater. The small room that Ember and Wade got trapped in is the same room where Cinder did their reading and the reading said it was true love. Ember chases Wade on the metro and in the darkness she sees a glowing flame which is revealed to be herself in the back of his head, foreshadowing that these two are destined for each other and her light reflected through him is going to be her way through an uncertain world.

Her glass molding is displayed more throughout the movie, particularly when she uses it to close up the leak, before it's eventually revealed that she has a legitimate gift at shaping glass into artwork, which leads to her being offered an opportunity that adds to her conflicting desires. When Ember meets Wade's family, she learns one of Wade's greatest traumas from his youth is being absorbed into a sponge. This demonstrates that something with a similar porous nature can contain him. As a result, instead of vaporizing into steam and dying when the pair are trapped in the furnace, the concrete ceiling collects him and holds him safely until they're dug out and he cools enough to condense back into liquid. That said, neither he nor Ember realized this would happen.

Fire people are the ones who are viewed as the most dangerous by the other Elements, for understandable reasons. But because Element City was structured by Water people, it was made without the thought of Fire individuals living there in mind. And thus, the city is the least safe for Fire people, especially when there are train tracks that goes over the Fire section of the city.

He apologizes and says that she's "hot", followed by "smoking", each time earning her ire because it sounds like he's hitting on her.

The background is colored blue, similarly to much of the promotional art for Wall-E. This one◊ features Wade in front of a grass background and a logo reading "Wave", in reference to Brave. This one◊ with Clod, an earth elemental, has a logo in the background reading "Soil" in the same font as the logo for Soul. This one◊ showing Ember with a school student name tag is a spoof of Turning Red, with the student name tag being similar to the one Mei wears and a logo for "Burning Red" in the corner, a pun on how Ember is a fire woman. In the film proper, Ember and Wade go to a movie theater with a poster for a movie called "The Good Element" on the outside, referencing the Pixar movie The Good Dinosaur.

On top of this, different elements are discouraged from intermingling. The first step is Wade convincing Ember to at least attempt holding hands, because neither of them will be seriously harmed by it, leading to the discovery that they can touch each other.
