06:52 pm: I did go forth and see Up yesterday, and for what it's worth, I give it a Two Thumbs fully extended UP. Damn good movie, it managed to be inspiring with a fair amount of sentiment without ever crossing over into sugar shock overload, and I left the theater in a mood that was vastly on an UPswing compared to my earlier feeling of grumpy ugh.

Without getting into specific spoilers for the movie, but just some generalized commentary:

If you need or want to feel like life is still out there waiting for you to get your ass in gear and live -- and it's entirely doable simply by recognizing this simple fact, and that the things you take for granted can still supply you with a feeling of happiness and satisfaction with a mere difference in how you look at it --

GO SEE THIS MOVIE.

Or if you simply want to see a good movie. Period.

Pixar never disappoints, but I'd say this one has made me the happiest in a long time.

05:46 pm: Posting on a couple of random thoughts:

Playing auntie with a 2yo nephew is fun. All you have to do is chomp bacon and make RAWR RAWR noises as you chew and he thinks you're the Funniest Thing EVER. You win bonus points for letting him feed you a piece and you chomp it all the way up his fingers. (Yes, he got bit. No, he didn't mind.)


On the rumor I'm hearing about the proposed Buffy the movie reboot without JW or any of the original cast on board: This is going to be EPIC FAIL. Which is too bad, because the casting, etc issue could so easily be avoided by simply choosing a different timeline/Slayer to play with, and then you don't have a bunch of PO'd Buffy/SMG/JW fans boycotting and badmouthing. Or simply do a vampire movie without the name Buffy attached. Sounds like they want to reboot the movie franchise with a different take anyway, darker/drama/etc. So... again. Not understanding their logic.
