UP!
UP comes out today! I cannot WAIT to see it again. Eeeee, I'm so excited, I'm so excited. You guys have to see it and tell me what you think.
Even though Carl is an old man, and I am a fairly young woman, I really identified with his character. Feeling like your life is over, feeling like you don't get to own your dreams...these are emotions I am well-acquainted with. A few months ago, when we went to Wondercon, we heard Pete Docter speak (and I got to meet him, OMG) and he said one of the recurring themes in UP is escape. Feeling like you have nothing left in your life and wanting to escape from it. These days, I feel like I don't have much of a life left. I want to escape.
