Holy crap. Why didn't anyone warn me about this movie.



Hey dad. Wanna watch this movie about a floating balloon house? Sure. Sounds silly and fun.

And the crazy thing about this movie is that they get you RIGHT AT THE BEGINNING. They don't even wait for the denouement or anything.

Among the writing staff, Tom McCarthy only gets a "Story By" credit (one of three), but his fingerprints are seemingly all over it.

Watched this with my son when he was very young and didn't yet comprehend things like marriage and death depicted in the movie.

God. This.



I enter theaters showing Pixar movies now like Vietnam vets might approach a jungle. I'm ready.

The Bing Bong scene. Wow.



I'm starting to realize how traumatized I've become by Pixar.
