Fantastic montage.
One thing though is that people always talk about how sad it is, and while it's sad on the surface (can't have kids, she gets sick and dies), IMO it's more sentimentally happy than anything else. He got to live out almost his entire life with the girl of his dreams, and even if they didn't meet certain goals (like having kids or making it to the Falls), they still had a life full of happiness and their own adventures. Like she told him in her book at the end.
Great movie.

I think audiences make that connection with Carl. At the beginning, we feel like he feels: sad almost depressed. But the journey brings us to appreciate all the things (Adventures!) that they did share together. Which is brought to the forefront at the end when he sees the back of the book.
