Some of you may have heard the story about a girl named Courtney, who cried at the WALL•E teaser trailer, and posted it on YouTube and her blog for the world to see. Well this was only the beginning of a heart warming tale of generosity and kindness from the folks at Pixar.
"Six months ago, when the first trailer for Wall-E came out, we were only halfway done with the film, and we weren’t exactly sure how we were going to get it done. We were exhausted. And then, one day, a movie showed up on YouTube showing a girl watching the trailer for Wall-E. And every time she watched it, she would cry on cue. When we saw that, we knew we were on the right track."
She was even teased by Brad Bird. The next day she got a tour of Pixar.
why would anyone record themselves crying and post it on youtube. people do what not to get famous.
Dang, lucky girl.
Ha-ha. How charming! That was very sweet of the fellows at Pixar to do that for her.
I remember when I first saw that video; I was cracking up, and I still laugh incredibly hard every time I see it. I guess that the joke was on me, though, as I ended up crying just as hard during the end credits of the film…. (heheh)
I hate her. ^^
Note to self: film myself watching the Up trailer and make amazed reactions and then put video up on YouTube.
(Yes, I’m a shoe-in for the Up premiere next year, now… * rubs hands together *)
