Title: Pixar's "Up"
Post by: Geekyfanboy on November 13, 2008, 02:58:47 PM
This is Pixar's new summer movie for next year. "Up"

From the Academy Award®-nominated team of director Pete Docter ("Monsters, Inc.") and co-director Bob Peterson comes "Up," a comedic adventure taking off (and lifting spirits) in summer 2009. Carl Fredricksen spent his entire life dreaming of exploring the globe and experiencing life to its fullest. But at age 78, life seems to have passed him by, until a twist of fate (and a persistent 8-year old Wilderness Explorer named Russell) gives him a new lease on life. "Up" takes audiences on a thrilling journey where the unlikely pair encounter wild terrain, unexpected villains and jungle creatures. When seeking adventure next summer -- look "Up."

They just released the teaser trailer.. check it out ..

I like the Translating Dog Collar idea.  Funny stuff. :)

Finally got this over here and went to see it with the younger two last week. I don't necessarily put it in quite the same category as Cars and some of the others but then I've only seen this one once.

The kids loved it for some of the humour, all of the bits you'd expect, but I enjoyed the amount of work they put into Mr Fredrickson's back story as much as anything else.

Overall, a good film. I've no doubt it will end up on the DVD shelf if we can find room for it!

I hate squirrels!
