Buffalo Bill Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Took my daughter to see 'UP' at the cinema yesterday. Has anyone else seen it yet? I have to say, I thought it was superb, and even brought a tear to my old glass eye. She also loves The Incredible, Nemo, and Ratatouille etc. ...and of course, the best Disney PIXAR film of all: Cars. Anyone else seen 'UP', or is a fan of these films. I don't know if it's cool to like these movies but I do know this: I love my little girl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Homme Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 My favourite is Finding Nemo. Quality film! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigieboy Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Seen Up with my 2 a few weeks ago. Loved it. The feeling of liberated excitment I got when the old boy basically gave the two fingered salute to the idea of going away to the old folks home was superb. My other favourites have been Nemo & going back a bit, Lion King. Kids love them. You love them. Everybodys 'appy! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Say What Again Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I'm a big fan of all the Pixar films - even though I don't have any kids! Haven't seen 'Up' yet, but I will. Monsters Inc deserves a mention on this thread along side the others already quoted. If I had to pick a favourite, I'd go for Ratatouille .

I P Knightley Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I don't know if it's cool to like these movies but I do know this: I love my little girl. That you, Doug? I'm a big, big fan of them all!! Shrek, Cars, Shark Tale, Madagascar, Toy Story, the whole lot. Some are better than others and I suspect that they're not all by Pixar but I like nothing better than a CGI movie! I've not seen UP yet. My middle son went off to a six-year-old's birthday party at the cinema to watch it in 3D. I was jealous as hell as he toddled off with 15 other kids to watch it. He didn't have the decency to turn around and say that he was too frightened to go in without me... I guess I'll have to make another excuse.

The Doctor Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 It's cool to love your kids! Nemo makes me cry, every time, I can't help it, I cry like a girl. Toy Story I and II are probably my favourites but they are all five star movies. Even the shorts are genius, just utter brilliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bill Posted November 16, 2009 Author Share Posted November 16, 2009 Long ago, but not so very long ago The world was different, oh yes it was You settled down and you built a town and made it live And you watched it grow It was your town Time goes by, time brings changes, you change, too Nothing comes that you can't handle, so on you go Never see it coming, the world caves in on you On your town Nothing you can do. Main street isn't main street anymore No one seems to need us like they did before It's hard to find a reason left to stay But it's our town Love it anyway Come what may, it's our town Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stupid Sexy Flanders Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I saw Up with my bird and my 7-year-old wee brother a few weeks back, and I'd have to say it's one of the best films I've ever seen, I absolutely loved it! The bits where the wee boy Russell talks about his dad are heartbreaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambo 71 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Andy, Have you been here with your daughter, sometimes you can get some good films on, I think it's every fortnight at weekends, ?2 tickets for adults and child, I've taken Nicole quite a few times. http://www.filmhousecinema.com/seasons/weans-world/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose Baxter Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I have got to say i love the animated movies, They are good and fun to go see. Loving the 3D movies as well. Was diapointed about toy story 3d as i thought it was a new one and not the original. Still love the classic's like Pinocchio & Dumbo. These are proper cartoon movies.

Brilliant, glad she enjoyed it, I took Nicole when they were showing a few weeks of Winnie the Pooh stuff when she was little and she loved it.

Mr X Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I love taking my kids to see these films and would also like to big up, erm, 'Up'. The sheer scale of the work that they put into them is staggering. Plus the scripts are always smart and there's always one or two adult jokes to snigger at. My two faves of the last year or so were 'Horton Hears A Who' and 'Madagascar 2'. Loved 'em both. I'm 40 years old. In fact the only film of this genre that I've actually disliked was 'Wall-E'. It was incredibly boring and the kids weren't that fussed by it either. Next, either 'A Christmas Carol' or 'Planet 51'. As long as there's fudge in the pick n' mix I'm happy to see either.

redm Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Kids films shouldn't make adults cry...wasn't expecting 'Up' to be half as sad as it was. It's very good though. I like Pixar well enough but I'm really a classic Disney sort of person. Can't beat a bit of Dumbo, Lady & the Tramp, The Little Mermaid or Aladdin.

I P Knightley Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 The only one that I found really disappointing was the Bee Movie from a couple of years ago. It just wasn't engaging. Hadn't realised that UP was a weepy. my 5-year-old must be a right heartless little wotsit. He just said it was "fun". Now you've told me that it's a weepy, I might reconsider plans to see it with my eldest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you've told me that it's a weepy, I might reconsider plans to see it with my eldest. It's not intended to be a weepy and the sad bits are definitely the sort of thing which might scoot harmlessly over the head of a kid but there are a couple of real heart-tuggy moments in it. Generally it's quite funny though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adi Dassler Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 As a regular cinema goer, and a cineworld pass holder, i think it's an absolute joke the amount of 'cartoons' that have been showing at the pictures this past month or so.

londonjambo Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Our 5 year old didnt even notice it was a weepy though myself and the missus were both in floods. Some very grown up themes like bereavement, infertility, loneliness and the disappointment of shattered dreams. But I guess if you're 5, its just about a house, balloons, talking dogs and a funny looking bird. I guess the old thing about it operating on different levels is very true. UP was great but didnt use the 3-D enough in my view. GC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
