…..Can’t….. Compute…. Awesome of that….
]]>That said, the initial blurb I read at AICN a few months ago about “Up” left me in tears. For me, that’s a bit more difficult to accomplish with simple words than a full-fledged movie where, as Joe Ranft would say, “everybody’s on board” to make the strongest .emotional connection through lighting, performance, music, etc.
“Up” has the potential to pack quite a wallop — especially among adults who know how life and its responsibilities can get in the way of the aspirations you had in your teens, 20s and 30s.
I suspect that “Up” will be quite a bit like Pixar’s “Wall-E” in the sense that it will have plently of adventure and comic moments to appeal to children, but its real significance will be in inducing some reflection by adult viewers.
