Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe villain Charles Muntz has a similar name to Charles Mintz, the Universal Pictures executive who in 1928 stole Walt Disney's production rights to his highly-successful "Oswald the Lucky Rabbit" cartoon series. This led Walt Disney to create Mickey Mouse, who soon eclipsed Oswald in popularity.
- GoofsThe age time-lines of the characters don't add up. When we see Carl as a child, Charles Muntz is a late middle aged man. But when they meet, they are about the same age. This is because the plot was slightly different in an earlier version of the movie. In that version, the birds' eggs would keep you alive for ever if you ate them, which is why Muntz was so interested in the bird, and the reason why he is still alive when Carl meets him. Pixar eventually decided to drop the concept about the eggs, but by then it was too late to change the part about Muntz still being alive and healthy. So they kept him in the final version and deliberately ignored that he should actually have been decades older than Carl.
- Quotes
[Carl, in his once-again airborne house, suddenly hears a knock at the front door]
Carl Fredricksen: [Surprised] Russell?
[opens the door to find Dug on his doorstep and is very happy]
Carl Fredricksen: [Smiles] Dug!
Dug: [Looking sad] I was hiding under your porch because I love you. Can I stay?
Carl Fredricksen: [Delightfully] Can you stay? Why, you're my dog, aren't you? And I'm your master!
Dug: [His sadness turns to happiness. As he happily wags his tail] You are my master? Oh, boy! Oh, boy!
[lunges forward and covers Carl in slobbery kisses]
Carl Fredricksen: [laughing] Good boy, Dug. You're a good boy.
- Crazy creditsThe photographs of characters shown during the end credits thematically match the crew members' positions, as do the "Wilderness Explorer" badges that also appear.
- Alternate versionsIn international prints, the label on the savings jar for Paradise Falls bears a drawing of said place as opposed to text.

I felt like a completely new person, truly moving
Honestly, I found the DVD of this film in my house and decided to give it a watch as I had nothing better to do. Truth is I really should have made the time before.
Although I enjoy all the other Disney/pixar movies, I am at that teenage age where I mainly seek Violence, sex and gore. Thankfully my teenage boredom did me a big favour in helping what this fantastic masterpiece. This film was so fantastically deep, meaningful and moving beyond relief, as soon as I switched it off I rang my grandparents to tell them I love them.
It should be made necessary that everyone everywhere should see this film and I think the world would be a much better place - it really is that good.
100/10
