As if UP couldn't be any more tear-jerk-worthy...

... AUGH.

Not safe for "There's no crying in ________" environments. Be they work or baseball.

Awwww... that's sad. I mean, I'm glad she got to see the movie and that was awfully cool of Pixar and stuff, but damn... depressing shit, man.

I need to go listen to some ska now or something.

Sheesh... Between you and another person on my f-list who linked to a video about domestic abuse, LJ is not a cheery place this morning. I know, I know, it doesn't always HAVE to be all rainbows, munchkins and lolcats...

(Doesn't help that I have the Cold From Hell since yesterday, thanks to our lovely Montreal weather. Please tell me you didn't get it too?)

Thanks for that. Between you and droidboy010101, I always have the best stuff to read while I'm bored at work.

Gah. Thanks for the PSA about why I shouldn't see this movie. For serious.

If that is the result of me posting this, then I am seriously repentant. Because UP is brilliant, one of Pixar's very finest. I assure you, you will laugh far more than you will cry, and you will leave the theatre feeling warm and fuzzy inside.

I may well see it sometime, but I can't see any films dealing with loss right now.

[thehefner.livejournal.com]

Understood.

Just know that it's one of the most joyous and--pardon the pun--uplifting films about loss I've ever seen. It may well be the finest film about those themes I can recall. It's the film I know I will want to see after I lose a loved one, as I can think of no other film that could be quite so helpful toward healing.

Gut renching and now I really want to see it.

It was awesome of Pixar showing a her a private showing with her request and very tragic that she died so young. :(
