Up

When not helping Esther move into her new house (which is beautiful and up in the hills, btw) I managed to get out to see a couple new movies, one of which was Up, the latest Pixar venture. The story of an elderly man who in his waning days decides to go on the adventure he'd always planned as a younger man, but never did. In a most unorthodox way. Ad Asner is the grumpy old man (real stretch there) and Christopher Plummer also appears as the Bad Guy. As one might expect from a Pixar movie, it looked great and was well written. While not my favorite Pixar movie, it's up there. So to speak.
