It's easily my favorite film of the year, and I had no idea it would top Wall-E so easily for me and the wife. Neither of us were particularly geeked to see Up. We kind of figured it for something good, but... ehh? Old man? Fat Asian kid? Sure, whatever. And then -- slap. Jaw on the floor. So good. Too good. When will Pixar truly fail? Ever? So far, signs point to "no." A film *half* as good as Up would be a triumph. -- c. Could not agree more.
