I went to a movie theater to see this movie last weekend and it was a very good movie. It was so touching. I cried for some parts of it. There were a lot of cute little kids at the movie theater and they were laughing and giggling through out the movie. So cute.

Very funny purplekow. :p

 

Seriously, I loved the movie and thought it was a continued success in showing how Pixar holds the attention of children while still captivating the adult audience.

 

A couple weeks after seeing the movie I saw "Up", the play, at the Steppenwolf Theatre in Chicago. The play was loosely based off of a period of life of the man who tied many weather balloons to his chair and took off into the sky. In life, he committed suicide after 10 or so years of disorientation while trying to find alternative ways to making a living without any success. The play followed a similar pattern while but incorporated his family life and the mainstream success of his son.

 

I enjoyed both "Up"s very much. The movie showing remorse over plans that never occurred...the play the struggles in "making it in life". I empathized with both characters...having grown up with a family that owned assisted living facilities and watching and interacting regularly (the residents were often my playmates) with many in their old age...and likewise choosing my current career due to similar reasons of the "inventor".

 

Glad you enjoyed the movie...whatever reasons it may have been. =)

Aging

 

It is sad as we age we lose our loved ones around us. When Fred lost his wife, Ellie, in the movie I cried. It was so sad. Ellie couldn't have a baby and that was sad too. However, it had a happy ending. Kids in the theater were so cute... I heard one of the kids asking " Are they going to keep the dog?" to someone. One kid across me had giggled so adorably. He was really into the movie.
