I caught it over the weekend. Entertaining movie, two and a half stars, in my opinion. Not quite movie-of-the-year, but I really appreciated the message it conveyed re: letting go of the past and the value of things. Also, Doug was totally like Caboose from Red vs. Blue.

Also, there was this takeaway that I didn't realize until I read it somewhere else:
Potsy wrote:[spoiler]This sure was a great movie. And what a great message! A human life is worth less than preventing a rare animal from being put in a zoo. And if you find an old recluse in the wilderness, you can kill him and take possession of his belongings. Thanks, Pixar!

Saw it on Monday.

I really have to say that the opening montage was surprisingly dramatic for a Disney animated film. Good thing the film lightened up for the main plot or else there would have been a lot of crying kids.

I thought Up was freakin' fantastic. I may have liked it more than Wall-E, but I'm gonna give it some time to settle.

I didn't see a "preview" for Toy Story 3, just an announcement for it. Showed no actual footage.

I was underwhelmed by Up, but like Ace, I enjoyed the message it conveyed.
