Trailer for Pixar’s UP
Nov 11th, 2008 by Matt
Apple’s website has the exclusive HD trailer for Pixar’s next animated feature UP! The film is described as being a “coming of old age” story, a seventy-something hero, alongside his clueless wilderness ranger sidekick, travels the globe, fighting beasts and villains, and eating dinner at 3:30 in the afternoon.
The trailer has that same retrospective look at their past success before it actually launches into introducing the new film. We’ve seen this same thing in the WALL-E trailer and it is perhaps a bit much at this point. Do we really need to keep reminding people that Pixar is wonderful at this point? I think most people get it by now. But perhaps Pixar is still struggling to separate themselves from the sea of sameness that leads people to confuse them with the creators of The Reef?
That being said, Up is looking really wonderful. And I am getting a very strong Miyazaki vibe from this one for sure. And who doesn’t love a grumpy old guy? I certainly do.
