Rotten Tomatoes gave it 100%.

Don't think I've ever seen that before. Definitely gunna check this one out. Pixar can do no wrong.

FWIW a lot of story writers and animators from the simpsons now write and animate for pixar.

"A man's suffering is similar to the behavior of gas. If a certain quantity of gas is pumped into an empty chamber, it will fill the chamber completely and evenly, no matter how big the chamber. Thus, suffering completely fills the human soul and conscious mind, no matter whether the suffering great or little. Therefore, the "size" of human suffering is absolutely relative." - Viktor Frankl

Absolutely LOVE any/everything Pixar does.

From the previews I have seen, UP will uphold that standard

If you guys have kids and watch the Disney channel they have showed the heck out of this movie. More and more clips everyday and behind the scenes stuff, looks really good. :up:

I couldn't get into Cars, and really couldn't stand Monster's Inc. (probably because of my weird post-City Slickers allergies to Billy Crystal), but I love everything else they've done. In fact, Incredibles and Ratatouille are two of my favorite movies period. (Brad Bird needs get going on another movie) Hell, Pixar is so good, they even made Ellen DeGeneres funny.

The preview where the dog has the collar that allows him to speak cracks me up.

On the Disney channel they tied up a real dog and put a collar with a mic on him with hidden cameras all around. They had the guy who did the voice to the dog talk to people as they walked by.

I think that quite possibly you know this already but you got screwed with that deal.

It was a surprise, it was worth it to see her smile when she saw it.

Mrs. VO and I just got back from seeing this in 3D at the theater ... we went because the theater offers $1 popcorn and $ soda, so it's a cheap date.

Movie itself was very good, much better than some of the weaker Pixar offerings (Cars, Monsters, Inc., Bugs Life) and often-times more grown up than you would expect. We really liked it, it was both funny and touching at the same time. It's a lot of fun in 3D.

Check it out if you like the Pixar films - you won't be disappointed. I'd probably give it 4.5 out of 5 stars.

Took my son to see Up. It was the first movie he's ever sat through all the way (22 months). Very heartwarming story with great depth and you really connect with the characters through the opening montage.

If this had been a waitress I would have given her a 100% tip!

That is a great deal. Here it costs $1 to park the car for a minute much less any kind of food.

I haven't been disappointed in Pixar yet and Up's no different. Still can't believe George Lucas sold that company.

Quite frankly, one of the best movies I've ever seen. Top 5. I have never been to a movie that was more of an emotional roller coaster then this one, and you are completely at its whim. 5 out of 5.

When it wants you to laugh, you laugh like a little a kid with snot bubbles. When it wants you to feel sad, it'll hit you harder than Brian's Song. (If at the end of Brian's Song, after Piccolo died, then Sayers has to shoot Old Yeller, you'd still not be close.) That's just the first 5-10 minutes.
