Can't wait to see it.

Will blind buy or rent it, which ever opportunity presents itself first.

RebelPrince1986 · 10-17-2009, 02:25 AM

For me, it's one of my least favourite Pixar films, but it's still far better than most Dreamworks Animation films. Definitely picking this up on day one and would suggest it to everyone.

this movie is worth buying if your whole HEAD was missing! I think it may get a best picture nod, the first for an animated film since Beauty and the Beast. Yes, it's that good.

I had the opportunity to go to a screening of "UP" in Pixar's theater followed by a Q&A with the director. I asked if the 3-D version would be included in the Blu-ray package, but he said the technology isn't quite there yet for that, but then said he had already seen the Blu-ray and that it looked amazing! I can't wait.

Watched this last night and the picture and audio was incredible. Pixar continues to outdo itself everytime. I loved the film in theaters but actually liked it even more this second viewing. Just an amazing story with great characters.

Could you tell me if it's region locked?

That's not what i said. Making senses is important but not forcing people to received too heavy of an issue and make it soooooo obvious. Every movie should makes sense somehow and I don't know, It's animation. Kids love them more than live action.

What I meant was. Do kids wants really a heavy subject that is a serious issue like global warming to be forced in Animation they wanna watch for fun? Don't think so. If they want that obvious of a global warming issue, they'd just watch Home or An Inconvenient Truth.

I didn't say it's a bad thing to include the message or sense in the movie but Up did a perfect job in giving the audience on subject like Keep Moving Forward in you life no matter how sad you are. Move on and follow your dreams. Stuffs like that.

Ice Age has a really good way to 'hide' the message about Global Warming and make audience acknowledge about it.

So, in conclusion, I never said animation should never make sense but I say some people watch Animation to escape from reality and didn't expect a heavy subject to be the main part of the movie. it's just too serious.

ps. sorry i meant to reply a really short one but i couldn't help seeing you twisting my sentence.

Don't have any way to test that, sorry.

I think that I will buy this blind. I bought Wall-e having nver seen it and really enjoyed it.

Augustine864 · 10-17-2009, 06:43 PM

Started out well but ultimately ended up leaving me disappointed. I would not buy this. I didn't enjoy the animals.

Well I would argue against that. If animation manages to include mature themes, it could captivate adult and child audiences of all ages. Now if you're like dreamworks that's pretty blatant with their "adult" jokes, now that's ridiculous. I was glad to see Kung Fu Panda abandoned that and most of the reasons I cannot enjoy animated films is because they try too hard to be kiddy. A good movie has to appeal to everyone.

Disney titles usually tell you on the back lower part of the box. If it simply says A it is, if it says ABC it isn't.

Thanks,

I received a check disc, not final product. Won't probably get that for another week. The check discs come in slip sleeves, not final cases. Sorry.

I noticed HDD's review has come down. I thought they were a bit before authorized street date for reviews.

jasonicus · 10-17-2009, 07:44 PM

UP is one of the best films I saw this year. It was sweet, funny and just wonderful overall. Loved it and would recommend it to anyone.

Rhylliam · 10-17-2009, 07:50 PM

I think I'll be doing a blind buy on this... Just a question of getting the steelbook or not.

I disagree. Both WALL-E and Up are masterpieces.

And yes, Up should be a blind buy. You'd be hard pressed not to like it.

Todd Smith · 10-17-2009, 08:29 PM

I will blind buy if I can find it for under $20 which is probably not very realistic. Otherwise I will rent it.

martinstraka8282 · 10-17-2009, 08:35 PM

The only movie I've seen in 3D in theatres, and G damn it was sexy, love this movie!

indianajdp · 10-18-2009, 06:05 AM

Didn't catch this one with my daughter, but she loved it so it will be an instant purchase for our family. Blind buy for me for sure, which I'd do regardless.
