Pixels

As an Action, Comedy, and Fantasy film, 'Pixels' primarily evokes Humor and Excitement from its premise of classic video game characters attacking Earth. A significant portion of the audience's emotional response is driven by Nostalgia for the arcade games featured. Joy and Happiness are prominent due to the lighthearted comedic tone and the eventual triumph of the heroes. Anticipation builds during the action sequences, leading to Satisfaction and Relief as the threats are overcome. Awe and Surprise are generated by the unique visual effects of pixelated characters interacting with the real world, while Anxiety and mild Fear are present during the alien attacks but are balanced by the comedic elements.
