Are there really adults who cried in the beginning of this movie?

Yes.
>tfw no Ellie

I hate this shitty movie so much. Like, I legit hate it.

It was a sad scene that took a lot of adults by surprise when they watched it for the first time.

My brother watched it with my niece in theaters. He lost his wife in a car crash a few weeks prior. He had to leave the theater for a moment because he couldn't deal with the emotions.

It's a very moving sequence that was completely unexpected. I loved it, and I loved the film too.

Only adults retarded enough to be manipulated by sad music. The movie went from cute to manipulative derivative shit real quick in the span of that montage. Easily Pixar's worst film. It treats the audience like a band of literal retards and tries to feed them steaming dogshit at every turn.

If you take out the beginning this movie is as mediocre as a episode of peppa pig, I swear up should’ve been a short, his wife dies, he goes to the waterfall shit with his balloon house and the short ends
No stupid kid, no stupid dog, no stupid plot
Just a charming story of redemption

>I cried like a little girl
>just thinking about it still makes me seethe

I cry just thinking about certain things, of course I cried when I first saw it. I still cry at Ratatouille no matter how many times I rewatch. Go fuck yourself, crying feels good, even if it's just for a story. It just means you feel vividly and are able to empathize deeply and authentically. Only times I don't cry at things is when I'm depressed and can't be bothered to care enough to be moved.

Hate is a pretty strong way to feel about a pretty OK movie. Care to expand on that opinion a bit?

>LOL XD KEVIN IS A MALE NAME BUT THE BIRD IS ACTUALLY FEMALE!!!! SPORK!!!! HAHAHA

How is using sad music to make people feel sad manipulative? The entire fucking point of the movie is to make people feel an emotion.

Yes.
You're not strong and tough because you've jerked off into anhedonia and feel nothing.

Adopting can be hard, although this is a fair criticism.for whatever reason, it doesn't seem to have happened and instead they devoted their lives to children another way.

Huh. Apparently Ellie suffered a miscarriage and wasn't barren. I assumed it had been the latter...

Anyway...I remember reading somewhere orphanages aren't really as big a thing as they once were in the US, alot of it being replaced by foster care systems and or kids are given up for adoption through prearranged contracts (like... fuck, basically like that Juno movie where she has the kid and then immediately lets Jennifer Garner adopt them.)

It's possible that the adoption agency turned them down down thinking a zookeeper and a balloon peddler weren't suitable parents or some shit. Up's setting is clearly filled with assholes in power as later evidenced so for all we know there's a scene on the cutting room floor with adoption or foster parent rejection papers strewn all over the floor and Ellie sobbing *again.*

Sure. I simply hate old people so I had no emotional connection to that old guy the main kid hung out with. And I did not care about what they were doing and had no investment in their adventure.

Ancient Roman men were far more masculine than today's soi "men" and they cried freely when their emotions overcame them. A man crying for his fallen fellow soldiers or for family deaths was a sign of emotional health and strength. Modern men are pathetic and weak willed compared to them, but insist that never crying at all makes them look strong and in control. To the Romans, this type of man is mentally broken and without a soul.

Wait, if you hate old people though, surely you saw the old man on the all of the advertising and surmised that it would largely revolve around an old man? If you are that passionate in your dislike of old people, why did you even see the movie?

>Being emotionally moved by a fictional character that you have no context or background on at all
>Character is, again, FICTIONAL

You need to go back.

The Romans, he just said it.

i showed up because i saw this stupid fucking comment on the front page, saw what board it was in and came here to laugh at him

>Yea Forums - Comics & Cartoons
>not allowed to care about fictional characters
nigga you dum

I agree with this. The beginning sequence set the bar way too high. Everything after tossed away all seriousness.

It's been heavily documented, why not look for yourself? Reading something other than capeshit for once, kiddo.

Hell no, how much of a touchy-feely faggot do you have to be crying at any movie?

How is crying over the death of a comrade or family member even remotely comparable to crying over a cartoon?

Didn't cry but it really cut close to the bone. But some fucker must've been cutting onions in the theatre when Merida's mum almost became a bear for good and when Judy was bearing her soul under that bridge.

Didn't cry, but it legit hit close to home. Me and my wife were expecting our first baby and she ended up miscarrying. So that scene in the movie did hit harder than expected for us both.

When I posted that 'it cut close to the bone' three posts above, it was for the very same reason as yours. I'll have to admit that while I expected Pixar to pull my heart strings, I wasn't ready for it to happen so soon in the movie.

The ending of The Croods is better.

Sadly the first part of UP is the only best part. I mean the latter parts aren't bad, but this scene set the bar too high and made the latter is a bit let down.

>taking a bet on some kid who's been completely fucked by America's broken foster care system
>trying to fix a kid who spent the last year with religious fundies who molested them
>probably born with problems from drugs and surrendered by addict parents
adoption is a huge fucking gamble

Why are so many people here with such negative emotions about this? Almost hate.
It's not a masterwork, but it is a nice little movie

>the main kid
The old guy was the MC you edge fag

its easy to get (you)s with a shitty bait thread where you pretend to hate some innocuous thing and get people to talk about its merits
