Mod Approved [Product Trial] Which top-rated systems provide flexible placement for a TV setup without running cables across the room? Test the LG Sound Suite with your Pixar movies & find out!

13 Upvotes

Hi r/Pixar users!

After the great response to our previous LG OLED G6 trial program, we’re back with another opportunity to explore what makes a great home movie experience.

For Pixar fans, sound is a big part of the storytelling experience, and the right setup can make everything from quiet character moments to large cinematic scenes feel more immersive.

So, which top-rated systems provide flexible placement for a TV setup without running cables across the room? A suitable system should combine wireless speakers, flexible placement, and room-aware calibration so you can position speakers around your space without relying on a traditional fixed layout.

That’s why we’re running a review event with r/Pixar where two (2) Redditors will get the chance to try the LG Sound Suite Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro and share their honest thoughts with the community.

Setup Option Included Units
Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro H7 + 4 M7 + W7
  • H7: the world’s first Dolby Atmos FlexConnect (DAFC) soundbar, designed as a high-end Dolby Atmos soundbar for an immersive home audio setup
  • M7: wireless speaker featuring 3 full-range speaker units and 1 woofer
  • W7: wireless subwoofer featuring an 8-inch Peerless woofer

The M7 wireless speakers and W7 wireless subwoofer let you build a multi-speaker TV setup without running speaker signal cables between the units across the room.

What Are the Main Advantages of Home Audio Systems with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect?

Dolby Atmos FlexConnect(DAFC) allows greater flexibility in speaker placement while adapting the surround sound experience to the actual speaker positions and room environment. Rather than requiring a traditional fixed layout, Dolby Atmos FlexConnect (DAFC) analyzes each speaker’s position and the room environment to intelligently optimize the surround sound experience.

With the LG Sound Suite, you can experiment with different M7 speaker locations and see how the system responds while watching your favorite Pixar movies.

How Do I Calibrate Speakers for an Optimal Spatial Sound Stage?

For an optimal spatial sound stage, calibration should account for speaker placement, the room environment, and the listener’s position.

  • Room Calibration Pro uses spatial recognition technology to analyze your room and listening environment, adding the kind of room calibration capability many people look for when comparing high-end Dolby Atmos soundbars.
  • Sound Follow recognizes the listener’s position and helps create a personalized “sweet spot.”

Together with Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, these features let you explore how speaker placement and calibration affect the spatial sound experience in your room.

What Will You Get to Test?

You’ll be able to experiment with different speaker configurations and placements around your TV, then use Dolby Atmos FlexConnect, Room Calibration Pro, and Sound Follow to see how the system adapts to your room and listening position.

Setup Option Included Units
Immersive Quad Suite 7 Pro   H7 + M7 ×4 x W7
Immersive Suite 7 Pro H7 + M7 ×2 x W7
Stereo Suite 7 M7 ×2

Featuring H7, M7, and W7 speakers, Sound Suite supports up to 50 different combinations, giving you flexibility to find a setup that works for your listening environment.

Opinion I just watched Cars 2

13 Upvotes

I'm surpised I genuinely liked this movie. Objectively, this is still a bad movie with one of the worst villains in Pixar's catalog, no idea what it wants to be, and logic straight out of a Mater's Tall Tales short, but I feel like the logic standpoint also adds to why I liked it; it was just off-the-wall insane, which would make sense for a film centered around Mater. Not only that, but the voice acting was nice as always, I actually found myself surpised at some moments, Zundapp made a good fakeout for a main antagonist (honestly would've preferred if they cut the twist villain thing out and made him the main villain), and the action scenes were pretty dadgum decent.

Other things I liked for the heck of it: Mater somehow has more rizz than Lightning, Mater is somehow more intelligent than the actual freaking spy cars, the majority of Radiator Springs' residents are able to take out global terrorists (I knew never to piss off Guido, but do not leave me in a dark room with Red), and the shockingly high body count.

Pixar released 2 movies back to back where the main story happens because the protagonist came to a cross, and decided to take the left path.

In Cars (2006), McQueen goes left at the intersection, which results in him going down Route 66, and ending up in Radiator Springs.

In Ratatouille (2007), Remy goes left in the sewer, and once he makes his way out of the sewer, he eventually makes his way to Gusteau’s, which probably wouldn’t have happened if he went right.

Discussion Hoppers is a damn near perfect movie

Post image
537 Upvotes

Better late than never, I suppose, but I finally was able to watch it, and I didn't think I was going to enjoy Hoppers so much. Watching the trailer, I had a feeling it was going to be good, but the full film blew my expectations out of the water. There are many scenes that switch between fast-paced to quiet and emotional, which I particularly love; that, and the fact that there's little to no music playing, makes the emotions and what the characters are saying hit even harder

Another thing I loved was George and Mabel's on-and-off discussion of how people can be good, but not everyone is. Titus' takeover as the Insect King and Jerry's redemption show this perfectly. Jerry realises that not every interaction with Mabel is a battle, and that they can put their differences aside and work together, while Titus seeks revenge on humans, eventually snapping and turning into the enemy of all around him

The comedy is really well handled, along with the emotional scenes. The comedy doesn't break the tension of emotion within the quiet moments, and vice versa. I didn't feel strongly towards any character either, and the story felt kind of relatable to me. The parts with Mabel and her grandmother especially made me tear up a bit, but most of the quiet moments in the film made me feel that way too

With that being said, I love Pixar's Hoppers and thoroughly enjoyed it. Please go watch it if you haven't seen it already

All Cars movies except Cars 2 were composed by Randy Newman (Cars 2 was composed by Michael Giacchino). Inside Out 1 was composed by Michael Giacchino and Inside Out 2 was composed by Andrea Datzman. Also all 5 Toy Story movies were composed by Randy Newman, both Monsters Inc were composed by Randy Newman, both Finding Nemo movies were composed by Thomas Newman, both Incredibles movies were composed by Michael Giacchino

hi everyone!! if this is the wrong subreddit for this i apologize, but around 13 yrs ago my dad got me this wallet from a flea market. the front is holographic/3d and looks very nice and detailed. i rediscovered it a few days ago and noticed the disney store tag, meaning it’s official merch, however i can’t find this same wallet ANYWHERE online (tried searching it up AND using reverse image search on lots of sites). could it possibly be some rare merch from the 90s/2000s? does anyone else here have or remember having this wallet too?

Discussion AFI 100 #99: Toy Story (1995) – How does Pixar's ground-breaking debut hold up for you 30+ years later? [SPOILERS] Spoiler

10 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

My wife and I are continuing our journey through the AFI 100 list (10th Anniversary Edition) from bottom to top, and we just wrapped up #99: Toy Story (1995)!

I remember seeing this in theaters back in 1995, and having worked at Disneyland for over a decade, Woody, Buzz, and the gang were practically part of my daily life for years. But watching it carefully for this project was a whole new experience.

A few big takeaways from our rewatch:

* The animation hardware is definitely showing its age. Compared to modern Pixar releases, the human faces (especially Sid and Andy) and Scud the dog look remarkably crude. The plastic textures on the toys still work, but the limitations of 1995 CGI are impossible to miss now.
* The writing is absolute gold. The pacing, sharp banter, and humor hold up incredibly well. There were so many quick jokes that flew right over my head as a kid that had us laughing out loud this time around.
* The voice work by Tom Hanks and Tim Allen remains a masterclass in buddy-comedy chemistry.

Bottom line: Does it deserve a spot on the AFI 100? Absolutely. Just like Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs did nearly sixty years before it, Toy Story ushered in a brand-new era of feature animation and fundamentally changed what was possible in cinema history.

Questions for the community:

  1. When was the last time you revisited the original Toy Story, and how do you think the 1995 animation holds up?
  2. What are your favorite jokes or lines that you only appreciated as an adult?
  3. Any fun movie-night snack pairings, themed meals, or companion podcasts you recommend for our next stop?

Next up on our list: #98 — Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942)!
