Kind of a downer, actually

We went to see Up with the kids this weekend, and I gotta tell you, for a Pixar film, it was pretty sad. The kids either didn't notice or didn't care as much as us old folks, but I was crying within the first few minutes of the film. It got better from there, but it is not a lighthearted animated spectacle. Other than the weeping, it was a pretty good flick, but on the whole, I prefer some true summer fare: crappy rom-coms or big, popcorn, explosion-filled action movies. Alas, I have yet to see Wolverine or Terminator, and I hear I'm not missing much. Dammit.
