Why do the character decisions 'baffle' you Beaks?
I think we need to give Pixar The Benefit. by Redfive!	Jul 27th, 2008 02:20:01 PM
I thought a Rat who wants to cook was a far fetched idea along with this,but That ended up being one of my favorites EVER,so I have 100% faith this will be nothing but SPECTACULAR.
Hope John Carter of Mars will kick ass. by SpencerTrilby	Jul 27th, 2008 02:25:33 PM
As for Up, it looks nice but I wish they put together something more... substantial as a teaser.
Pixar is far from perfect by Rupee88	Jul 27th, 2008 02:48:27 PM
some of their movies have been boring and some of have been dumb. The have made 3 or 4 great ones, which is still an amazing batting average. But they are incredibly overrated. Kung Fu Panda was about as good as Wall-E.
by fluffybunnywhiskers	Jul 27th, 2008 03:30:37 PM
Just reading the first few paragraphs of that description: lonely old balloon salesman that flies around with his house tethered to a load of balloons to make good on a promise to his lost wife? That sounds AWESOME! Beaks what are you thinking? The old man premise sounds great, especially looking at that short Pixar did of the "two" oldies playing Chess in the park. This sounds phenomenal.
Panda as good as WALL-E? by tiltandflip	Jul 27th, 2008 03:31:18 PM
Kung Fu Panda was a ton of fun, but I personally wouldn't put it on the same level as WALL-E. But that's just my opinion.
THREE HIUNDRED FOURTEEN MILLION (TH) by Pennsy	Jul 27th, 2008 03:31:21 PM
The Dark Knight's estimated US boxoffice gross as of this weekend. It's more than halfway there already. Titanic, after a decade, finally has a challenger for its crown as the highest moneymaking film of them all. (all adjusted-for-inflation-aholics avoid this thread, then ;))
come on, its pixar! by Obscura	Jul 27th, 2008 04:02:30 PM
They wont let it out of the door unless its perfect! if they wanted make a quick hit they wouldnt be using an 80+ year old character. They're in the buisness of manking money just like any company, but they know the quality is the best way to get that. worked for em so far, we have no reason to doubt them.
How can you guys want a substantial teaser? by Evil Hobbit	Jul 27th, 2008 04:31:08 PM
It's simply a tease! The whole point of it is just to show a single image to let you know there's something coming 'up'. Nothing more, it's not ment to be substantial, it's only to show a glimps and then have you go like uhm -- what did I just see? Is it good? What? Oh well, we'll see. But that's just enough to get your interest and it's build to do nothing more then that.
Ok, but South America is not a place full of jungles by ludmir88	Jul 27th, 2008 06:39:38 PM
or even full of tribes or drug dealers. I love the american ignorance, just keep it that way.
No jungles?!? by snowflake	Jul 27th, 2008 09:46:36 PM
I may be missing something, but isn't the Amazon, like, the largest jungle in, like, the entire world? (with the most undiscovered tribes also) By the way, the clips for Up looked great. Bolt looked funny also.
ludmir88 by BadMrWonka	Jul 27th, 2008 11:20:07 PM
if I said LA is a place filled with gang violence and people talking on their cell phones, it wouldn't have to mean that EVERYONE in LA is in a gang or on their cell phone all the time (or both), but since both are a strong characteristic of the area, it's fair. there's a shit ton of jungles in south america, a shit ton of cocaine, and a shit ton of indigenous tribes. also Mardi Gras.
Pixar rock by scottishnutjob	Jul 28th, 2008 04:15:50 AM
I've been to Bolivia, Peru and Brazil, trust me there's a lot of jungle in South America. Also lots of coca leaf - they sell them in bags on the streets - people eat it to keep their appetite down and their energy up. And tons of Quechua and other tribes, its like going back in time. Nothing wrong with that - just how it is. And yeah, Pixar has an incredible batting average and makes far better films than I ever could however Cars was for toddlers only and Ratatouille had way too much talking. The all time classics are the Toy Stories and The Incredibles and hopefully WallE when I see it. For me the best thing about Pixar are the shorts which usually kick the hell out of the film to follow. The earlier synopsis for the opening of Up on this website almost had me in tears, it sounded awesome. Can't wait.
Carl is 78, Not 82 by greenbudha	Jul 28th, 2008 06:03:35 AM
Not that it matters but in a video clip online Docter says the old guy's 78.
LUCAS IS A FUCKTARD ! by jones1899	Jul 28th, 2008 10:10:34 AM
Lucas is also considering what to do about the fifth instalment in the Indiana Jones franchise, which he has produced from the outset. The most recent film, Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, has taken almost $750m (£375m) at the international box office, and the whip-snapping archeologist remains in high demand, even though his own days as a whippersnapper are behind him (Harrison Ford is two years older than Lucas). "We were hoping for box-office figures like that, which is, ultimately, with inflation, what the others have done, within 10%," Lucas explains. "So, we squeaked up there. Really, though, it was a challenge getting the story together and getting everybody to agree on it. Indiana Jones only becomes complicated when you have another two people saying ‘I want it this way’ and ‘I want it that way’, whereas, when I first did Jones, I just said, ‘We’ll do it this way’ — and that was much easier. But now I have to accommodate everybody, because they are all big, successful guys, too, so it’s a little hard on a practical level." "If I can come up with another idea that they like, we’ll do another. Really, with the last one, Steven wasn’t that enthusiastic. I was trying to persuade him. But now Steve is more amenable to doing another one. Yet we still have the issues about the direction we’d like to take. I’m in the future; Steven’s in the past. He’s trying to drag it back to the way they were, I’m trying to push it to a whole different place. So, still we have a sort of tension. This recent one came out of that. It’s kind of a hybrid of our own two ideas, so we’ll see where we are able to take the next one."

just got a DUI!!! Bwa-HA HA HA HA
The Elderly by Wee Willie	Jul 30th, 2008 10:34:12 AM
I hear what Docter is saying about the 'rich tapestry' of some old people's lives. But if you talk to your average old person, who spent their lives going to a dull job, not reading books, and watching tons of TV, you know what? They're boring.
