Favorite Movie

Okay I'm just assuming we can just put our new posts up now? My favorite movie was "Up!". In the intro to the movie you see a couple grow up together as kids, get married as young adults, and grow old together until the old lady, Ellie, dies. Since she always had a dream of living on Lost Falls, the old man decides to float their house there using balloons. What he doesn't realize is that Ellie had her dreams come true by getting married and getting to spend her time with him and she wasn't disappointed about the things she never got to do when she died. On the way to Lost Falls, the old man discovers he has a tag-along, Russell, because he was on the porch when the house took off. When they reach the jungle, they meet a dog, Dug, and a bird and adopt them as pets. The old man has to choose whether to live out Ellie's old dreams of living on Lost Falls or living out his own adventure when the bird gets captured and needs help. Sorry that was a really long summary. I love this movie because it's really funny and cute. The kid Russell shows persistence and optimism throughout the whole movie. The old man is very loyal, goal-oriented, and in the end is very loving. I wouldn't say any of these are my strongest suits except for loyalty.
