Goddamn You Disney For Up
Posted on 7/11/20 at 8:21 am

Just caught the opening. I saw it on and against my better judgement watched it. Seriously screw you Disney. That opening 10 mins is for me the most heart wrenching 10 mins of any movie I’ve ever seen. I saw it for the first time when my wife and I were trying to have a kid and were having complications, and the honeymoon jar that kept having to be used for something else was a very real thing for us. Instantly went back to that point in my life.
I can take the ending of Toy Story 3. I can take Bing Bongs death “Take her to the moon for me”. But that opening for Up just rips my heart out every damn time.

But the scene I can’t even watch anymore after having a son is Simba begging his dead father to get up and then curling up and crying next to his body.

The first ten minutes are great.
The rest of that movie is a nonsensical mess.

We saw Inside Out right after my son was born and my wife cried like a baby. But that was more about timing.
If I had to rank the most emotional pixar moments:
1) Toy Story 3 ending
2) UP's montage of Ellie and Carl's life
3) Bing Bong's goodbye in Inside Out
4) Onward ending
5) Finding Nemo beginning
6) Sully's goodbye to Boo in Monsters Inc.

Inside Out sent my wife into labor. So quickly in fact I had to deliver the baby.

This has destroyed me every time I've watched it. It was worst in the theater because of the bait and switch where he's kinda set up as a villain trying to maintain relevance...I felt so bad for questioning his motives and Richard Kind is just the most amazingly perfect casting.
I cried in the theater watching Up but I don't think I ever did on rewatch at home.

Being a newish dad at the time, I will add the dad dinosaur dying in the good dinosaur was also emotional to me.

Yep. Watched that scene with my kids for the first time not long ago and Jesus. Just hard to watch.

Aw dang that's one of my fav Pixar films lol. I guess the third act is a little sloppy.

Again, Up hits a very touchy place with me. If you’ve never had to go through something like that in your life then I applaud you and you should thank your lucky stars you haven’t. I have personally had to borrow from the vacation fund. I’ve put off doing things because of finances. I’ve had to make those decisions. And it’s the worst feeling in the world. When you can’t even have a few days with your spouse. When there’s always work, life in the way.
And the kids things is terrible. Ever have a doctor tell you the likelihood of you having another kid is very slim? Know how much fertility treatments cost? I do. Another time when you look at your savings and have to ask “what’s more important?”
My greatest fear when i was younger was watching my life pass me by and being too busy to do anything about it until it was too late. And it took about 15 years but I finally got over that hump. And Up hits all those buttons. Maybe not for everyone, but certainly does for me.

Top five most powerful opening of any move I’ve ever seen..
And I tear up like a baby watching Bing Bong give it all up to this day.. that much happiness willing to sacrifice himself, heart wrenching

Dude. Me and you have lived similar lives. I’m 100% with you.
UP destroys me.

Becoming a dad made me a giant p*ssy and these scenes affect me much more than they ever would have before.
I think there's a place for the next to last scene of Coco in there. Took my daughter to see it in the theater and I felt my face tightening up a little, but looked over and saw my wife just bawling.

That broke me. Day before my grandmother died she asked for her father in front of me. Just wrecked me.

Reading about the original scripted and voiced version of Bing Bongs ending makes me happy they cut it down to the version used.. don’t think I could’ve handled an extra 45 seconds of him subtly explaining what he was about to do and him coming to the inevitable conclusion that he was going to go through it
