1. It’s Set in San Fransokyo, Which is Awesome
So the movie is set in a futuristic city called San Fransokyo, which is basically exactly what it sounds like. It was so interesting and my biggest complaint about the movie would probably be that we didn’t get to learn more about it! I’d love it if they set more movies in this city, even with different characters!
2. Baymax is the Most Lovable Robot Ever
I mean, seriously, is this not the cutest thing ever? It is. And that’s just some of the lovableness.
3. Awesome, Supportive Friends & Family
Hiro goes through a lot in this movie, but everyone in his life, including his brother’s college friends that he barely knows, are super awesome and supportive. A lot of times we MC in a story has to go through everything alone, or with just a significant other, and it was so nice to see the MC was not alone, even when he thought he wanted to be.
4. There is Zero Romance & You Will Not Miss It
I love romance just as much as most anyone else, but it was also kind of refreshing to watch a movie where everyone was just friends and there wasn’t even a hint of romance. The love in this movie is all familial.
5. Girl Power!
In addition to Hiro and Baymax, Big Hero 6 consists of two guys and two girls, with both of the girls and one of the guys being students from the university Hiro’s brother attends and who are incredibly smart. They know about science and are working on awesome projects that ultimately end up as part of the superhero identities.
6. Surprise Cameo!
I don’t want to say too much and spoil the surprise, but if you’re a fan of a certain franchise you’ll definitely appreciate this!
Have you seen Big Hero 6? Why do you think others should watch it?
