Re: UP
Just saw this on a plane. I agree with the above comments about the villian subplot being a bit weak, and the fact that the ol' guy is running and jumping, not to mention dragging a floating house around, clashing with his crotchety characteristics at the start of the film. But hey - a balloon-lifted house? Suspension of reality!

Also, i was very impressed by how "adult" some of the subject matter was - more so than in other Pixar films i recall. I don't want to spoil it for those that haven't seen it, but there are a few weighty issues hinted at, that certainly moved me.
But still, plenty cute and comical!
