UP! - Pixar does it again!

Recommended Posts

Just came back from watching UP in 3d. It is a fantastic movie. One of the best I've seen in my life. I think it may be the best Pixar has made.

I saw a little stat that was very interesting...30% of the people that went to see UP were adults without kids.

Here's a review that, I think, does a pretty good job of explaining why.

First off, the short alone was worth the price of admission. I would explain the success with adults as being due to it being more of an adult movie that kids could enjoy than a kid's movie for adults. The central messages are likely lost on most kids but provide an excellent framework for an enjoyable story. Probably the best Pixar feature so far.

It was/is brilliant.

The short, Partly Cloudy, is now available in the iTunes store for $1.99.

I can't figure out how to get the url but if you search for Partly Cloudy in the store you'll find it.

I have been trying for years to figure out why people still seem to think that these are "kids movies".

I just took my niece to see this movie and all I can say is WOW! What an amazing story. Tugs at all of your emotions and is just amazing is all I can say. I think I might go see it again but next time in 3D. The short clip at the begining "Partly Cloudy" is worth the price of addmission.:)
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!
