In my opinion Pixar is the gold standard for film quality. They have always excelled at bringing films that can and do appeal to all ages. Rarely is there a false note, Pixar leaves cloying to Disney. While I have enjoyed all the Pixar films, and have my favorites, no Pixar film is "bad". Both Wall*E and UP achieve an emotional resonance that is rare in live action films, let alone in a "cartoon". The only movie I have on my iPod is Wall*E-it's the only film I've bought with a digital download that I actually wanted to download. It would have been nice if Disney could have included a digital download with the regular DVD release. I don't own a Blue Ray player, so I can't comment on the kerfuffle going on with the 3 disc Blue Ray. I won't ding the film for what Disney does or doesn't do. I also don't feel the film, which was shown in 3-D in theatres will suffer from not being a 3-D disc. I saw "Journey to the Center of the Earth" on disc at a friends house, on a big screen TV. I had a blistering headache at the end as I couldn't see the film in good registration. (I wear prescription glasses, so cheesy cardboard glasses present several difficulties for me.) 3-D is immaterial to UP. It was nice to see it in 3-D at the show, but it has no impact on the plot or action of the film on disc. There is no paddle ball moment in UP as there is in "House of Wax". This is a terrific film, and if you're a human being who isn't embarrassed to be moved by a movie, especially an animated one, then you should be able to enjoy UP. Everyone involved did a terrific job. This is an excellent film.Get more detail about Up (4 Disc Combo Pack with Digital Copy and DVD) [Blu-ray].
