Words
“I think, of all the films this year… maybe “The Hurt Locker” too… “Up in the Air” will be considered the definitive film of 2009 when we look back in 2019. It’s too raw for people to appreciate now. I’m thinking of 1976 when the Best Picture Award went to “Rocky” over both “Network” and “Taxi Driver” which are far superior films, but “Rocky” struck the populist chord (“Avatar”). “Up in the Air” is similar to “Network” in that regard, because it’s taking a very sharp knife to the world it’s trying to dissect, yet still conveys fairly human emotions. In ten years we’ll be thinking, “how did they not pick ‘Up in the Air’ for best picture?” Of course I’m assuming it loses, but maybe it still has a chance… who knows.
I for one was absolutely captivated and riveted by it, and would love for it to get recognition it deserves. Great Film.”

No Response for "2nd Pixar Trailer for Up"
I can only describe this trailer as “delightful.” I think casting Ed Asner as the lead voice is pure genius!
Alan of Montreal… you take the words right out of my mouth.
And I am first in line for this!
I had doubts about this based on the premise, but this teaser convinced me that I should see it. I should never doubt Pixar
BRILLIANT…that is all.
Magic. Can’t wait!
I sense another winner from Pixar. They haven’t let me down yet, although for some reason, I can’t bring myself to buy Cars for more than $10 brand new……
oh, that is so sweet. I love it. Mr. Frederickson is an adorable curmudgeon, *g*.
Zachary,you are not the only one.
If wall-e doesn’t make it in the final five, this should have a strong chance next year (assuming it’s good, which you know it will be). It’s about an old guy aka members of the academy!
If Wall-E doesn’t make it in the final five? Uh…AJ? Wall-E is going to win the whole damned thing.
Wonderfully weird looking premise. 09 is already shaping up pretty nicely.
Pixar… doing Hayao Miyazaki proud once again.

Brilliant. It looks wonderful.
Erm…. looks set to be Pixar’s first truely underperforming film, though I am sure the finished product will be of great quality.
Being a Pixar fan, I am disappointed.
I am looking forward to Bolt, though; and specially The Princess and The Frog, but not this one, sorry.
Just in case people didn’t know, it was written by the same writer of Finding Nemo (and also contributed some story material to Ratatouille), and was co-directed by him and the guy who directed Monsters, Inc. and contributed the story material for Toy Story, Toy Story 2, Monster’s Inc, and WALL-E. That’s about as Pixar as you can get.
Where did the kid come from? He’s not on the porch when the house takes off.
