We Got Emotional with Amy Poehler for Inside Out

It's not often we get starstruck or emotional when we do these interviews, but meeting comedy genius Amy Poehler was one of the few times we suppressed a loud 'SQUEEEEE' as we sat down for the interview.

God, she's so just funny.

Poehler plays Joy, the emotion who gets lost inside the head of Riley - a twelve-year old girl who's moved from Minnesota to San Francisco. When she and Sadness, voiced by Phyllis Nelson, are separated from her other emotions and cast out into the wilderness of Riley's mind, the two embark on a journey that'll change both them and Riley forever.

We - d'uh, obviously - did a quiz with her, because who wouldn't, right? The gist, we think you'll agree, was pretty straightforward. We showed Amy Poehler a number of images and asked her what emotions she felt. Needless to say, she was an absolute delight.

And another shout-out to Amy Poehler for game recognising game with that Sigournery Weaver comment.

Inside Out is in Irish cinemas on July 24th. Will you be giving it a watch?
