Pixar UP

We got the chance to see Pixar’s UP movie around the time it was released. This was our first 3D experience with the new technology, and while initially we were expecting to see the typical depth the technology provides, we were pleasantly surprised it was not overused. What Pixar did was use 3D as part of the story, they used it to aid the storytelling, I thought that was great, also as a result we didn’t experience the typical discomfort that sometimes those movies generate (perhaps the new technology has something to do with it as well).

I still want to see the movie one more time, this time in 2D to see how it looks… you know, there were two parts of the movie where the water just looked real, not 3d at all, the first one where Carl Fredricksen and Russell are crossing the creek and the second one when some of the dogs fall down into the river down below.

If you still have not seen it, don’t wait any longer.

PIXAR WALL-E Excellent Movie

Well we got the chance to go see WALL-E, but not until around 2:45pm due to issues that came up.

How was it? It was Excellent!!!, but don’t take my word go see for yourself. Love the graphics, the story, etc. Sometimes you see movies and you can tell what will happen next, at least for me that was not the case, the story hook me and at some point I even forgot I was watching an animated film. Not many animated films do that for me, actually now that I think about it I don’t think it has ever happened. Each character was animated beautiful.  I can’t wait to see it again, I think it would be really cool if there was an Imax theater close to home.

The widget below is pretty cool, it allows you to view the trailer without leaving the page 😉 The vignette’s are pretty cool as well, more animation to enjoy.
