Not sure I've heard of anyone being put off movies by the colour palette before, but I do think Pixar generally do a good job. They seem to aim to produce something special rather than just churning out whatever might be commercial, but the stories can be soppy at times. I'm just in awe of what can be achieved in animation these days, but stories matter.
I find it interesting that one of the pioneers of parallel universe theory was the father of E from the band Eels. He did a documentary about his dad a while back. I am into science, but a lot of more recent stuff is non-intuitive. Doesn't mean it's not true though.
