The scene where Baymax is holding up rubble to protect the team is highly reminiscent of the Hulk holding up a mountain in and on the cover of Secret Wars #4. See more »
Goofs
What type of item gets sucked in to the portal or not is very inconsistent. Some items are sucked in with great force while similar items in the same shot are not affected. The team hides behind a piece of debris that doesn't seem different from the debris being sucked in to the portal, and not only is it motionless but it seems to shield them from the effects of the portal. They can behave normally without any noticeable force acting on them. Earlier, Hiro was not shielded from the effects of the portal even though he was indoors (he was drawn up against the ceiling by the upward force) and much farther away from the portal. See more »

Ringleader:
The winner, by total annihilation - Yamaaaa!
Yama:
Who's next? Who has the guts to step into the ring, with Little Yama...
Hiro:
Can I try? I have a robot. I built it myself.
Yama:

I went to watch this movie with my son aged 10 and daughter aged 7 - it was my son who was especially keen to see this, and to be honest, I wasn't really expecting much, as I hadn't watched any trailers about it, or heard much about it, & I thought it maybe more a boys' movie and my son would enjoy it more than my daughter or myself...
However... For the entire movie, myself and both of my children were completely immersed in it, and it evoked a range of thoughts, feelings and emotions in all of us, which included laughter and reducing us to tears (and I don't usually cry easily!). We all came out from the cinema each wanting our very own Baymax, and we were talking about and reliving moments from the movie for weeks after! My son who is a huge Marvel fan too spotted and enjoyed that he could make connections with Big Hero 6 to its Marvel origins.
Mine and my children's conclusion... We loved this pretty much the same as we loved Frozen... Another fantastic animated movie from Disney!
