News UP

Originally posted May 29th at 12:00 AM: It’s finally May 29th and Up and Partly Cloudy have now been officially released in the US and Canada!

For those of you who are able to see Up today, I hope you fully enjoy this masterpiece! With your help, we can make it a huge success.

It’s already got marvelous reviews, with 98% of critics favoring Pixar’s 10th film (as of publishing time) and their 10th to be Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes! Don’t forget to promote the film and get your friends out there to see it, advertisements and trailers only go so far, your word of mouth can make Up Pixar’s 10th blockbuster. It’s only good news that analysts are predicting a big $60 million dollar opening for Pete Docter’s second feature film with the company. Major factors pointing to this number are recent performances by blockbuster animated films/demand behind them, the extra cost of 3D and as pointed out above, the extremely positive reviews.

A big "CONGRATULATIONS!" goes out to Pete Docter, Bob Peterson, Jonas Rivera and the whole Up team at Pixar for releasing another piece of quality entertainment that has been praised since well before release and will surely delight the masses starting today, let’s not forget Pete Sohn and the Partly Cloudy team! Of course another huge congrats goes out to Pixar on releasing their 10th film, what a triumphant movie for such a huge milestone!

Up is not to be missed, especially by fans of film, animation and of course, you: the Pixar fans, but I’m sure almost any demographic will be moved by it! On that note I’m going to take some time later in the day this weekend to highlight some more really cool Up-related business that’s relevant to opening day! From as early as today to as far as Up’s announcement.
Stay tuned.

Update: We’ll be bringing you really cool stuff as we said above, but instead, it’ll be done throughout the weekend due to how busy I am showing everyone how great Up is! Just got back from another amazing, magical, hilarious, touching screening, this time with Partly Cloudy (so cute) attached. Speaking of how great it is, I’m wondering how you liked it?
