    Ok so I just watched this movie about a house flown by balloons and cried like a little girl at two points in the movie. That almost never happens to me!

    Anyone else find that movie a little upsetting? It was so sweet though :slight_smile:

    Yeah. Every time I watch that movie I cry, especially at the beginning and right at the end, when he leaves the chairs just sitting on the cliff.

    Me, too. I'm a sucker for Pixar films, which always seem to hit right where it hurts when you're expecting something cute and silly.

    Yes, I cry every time it shows his wife dying. It reminds me of my 92 year old grandpa. He took care of his wife every day after she started to deteriorate from osteoarthritis, and continued to take care of her when she got cancer. He still talks so fondly of her and it's been over 30 years now. So when I first saw Up! the little old man instantly reminded me of him. Tons of hilarious moments in that movie, but the sad moments are so heartbreaking.

    The story at the beginning was super touching. I cried a little bit when I first watched it... :astonished:
    Nonetheless, it has got to be one of the most kick-ass Pixar movies ever.

    My thoughts exactly lol. I had heard it was good, waited ages to see it and finally decided to go for it. It was a good film, but I definitely teared up a couple of times lol. It was a good film though, another Pixar great.

    Yes, Up was a very sweet and kind of sad movie. I didn't cry, but I came close.

    It's legitimately important for people to think about how they move through life; life IS a finite thing, and they need to do special things with the ones they love before said loved ones are gone.

    I cry during it. The first time I watched it, it was in spanish so I had no idea what was going on so I was able to watch it without crying. I got teary eyed the second time, and the third time was two months after my Mom died and I bawled. My dorm was doing a program in the lounge where we watched it and wrote our dreams on balloons and let them go. I wrote I want to be a good Mom and I wrote a note to my Mom and let it go. I then gather my stuff up and went to the lounge next door and just cried my eyes out.

    The beginning had me bawling like a baby, I can't watch that movie.
