Up, Up, and Away with Director Pete Docter

As if we haven't gotten enough already on insights into "Up" (I certainly can never get enough of such things), Disney Insider has a link to a rather fascinating inside look at the making of up from director Pete Doctor.

As far as how the story originated, he said:

It was based on my drawing of a super-grouchy old guy holding a bunch of colorful, happy balloons ... that contrast seemed pretty funny. Then we played around with the idea of floating away in a house. It was a bizarre solution to escaping everyday life that captured both [co-director] Bob Peterson and I ... we just went from there.

Sunday.... I'll be seeing it this Sunday!
