Pixar recently announced there is a new entry to the Up cinematic universe coming soon. A short film following Carl as he prepares for his first date since Ellie’s death will be released this summer, and fans are already crying over it, including me! I’m not above crying at Up. One time in college, I had to do a study where I watched sad parts of movies to see how I’d emotionally react, and I literally cried in a research lab because of Up and The Shawshank Redemption. I don’t know what kind of grad student concocted that study, but they are sick in the head. I’m hoping that this new movie will be a happy film so I’m not blubbering before the feature presentation. Will Carl meet another rugged adventure type like Ellie? Will Russell help him get ready? How will Doug be involved? I can’t wait to find out.
