Over the summer, we showed you the real-life "Up" house that a Utah construction company completed and put on the market. Turns out, the house has been a boost in the tourism to the Salt Lake City area.

As only an 8-year-old who still believes in movie magic could, my daughter offered an alternative: “Let’s go in a flying house like Carl from ‘Up’ did.” I’ve got to start having more faith in magic, it seems.

On our recent trip back from Walt Disney World, rain struck early, delaying our trip home severely. As the day dragged on and the road got seemingly longer, my mood turned sour and the will to drive left me. In these instances, I like to turn on a movie that fits my mood, if only to listen along and cheer up.

A website surveyed men about the films that make them cry, and not only did two Pixar films make the Top Ten list... one of those two films even grabbed the #1 spot! The question is, can you name the two Pixar films (and the other 8) that made the list?

Up, much like Finding Nemo and WALL-E, tells a story that is entirely driven by a character's heart, which allows the action to flow naturally as an extension of the determination of its protagonist. Carl Fredricksen chooses his journey as one last mark of a desperate and lonely old man, widowed from the love of his life and pushed to the edge by the gentrification that surrounds his quaint home.
