Inside Out
Directed By: Pete Docter Starring: Amy Poehler, Phyllis Smith, Bill Hader, Lewis Black, and Mindy Kaling
America could use a little happiness right about now. With the atrocities that took place in Charleston, South Carolina this week, I'm certain that many of our hearts are heavy. Regardless of what anyone in the media or the blogosphere says, racism and gun control are two of the crucial issues of our time.

The To Do List
Directed By: Maggie Carey
Starring: Aubrey Plaza, Johnny Simmons, Bill Hader, Scott Porter, Alia Shawkat, Rachel Bilson, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Andy Samberg, Connie Britton, and Clark Gregg
