Pixar Up Quotes

My biggest gripe about other people who are on the Pixar Up theme bandwagon is that they over use the, "You are my greatest adventure." quote.

First of all, NO ONE said that in Up.

No.

One.

Mr. Incredible is the one who said it, back in 2004 when the ENTIRE Incredible family was caught in Syndrome's force field chains on his secret island towards the end of the movie (about an hour and fifteen minutes in).

He was talking about how bad of a father he had been.
"I'm sorry. I've been a lousy father, blind to what I have. So obsessed with being undervalued that I undervalued all of you."

then he continues,
"So... caught up in the past that I... You are my greatest adventure, and I almost missed it."

BOOM!

Kinda makes me wonder if people even watched the movie.

I mean, I guess I can give them a little credit for at least getting the Pixar part of it right. But the amount of "You are my greatest adventure" prints available that have Carl and Ellie's house on it makes me confused.  It even made me doubt myself to the point where I read through the entire Up script to make sure I wasn't wrong.

And since I've made such a huffy-puffy statement about that, I will not be using it in my wedding.


Here's the list of quotes that I will be using.

- Adventure is out there!
- The Spirit of Adventure
- You and me, we're in a club now.
- Cross your heart. Do it! Cross it!
- You know, you don't talk very much. I like you.
- Stuff I'm Going to Do
- Thanks for the adventure - now go have a new one! Love, Ellie
- I have just met you and I love you.
- I was hiding under your porch because I love you.

We Have a Theme!!!

日テレ (Nihon TV) does 金曜ロードショー (Friday Roadshow) and usually shows a family movie.

This week, they showed Pixar's Up!

The B had never seen it before and thought I was crazy when I started tearing up at the beginning of the Carl and Ellie montage. 

But I think the colors and the whole adventure and travel theme really fit us!!

Plus, my mom is allergic to roses and I'm not particularly fond of flowers... So this works out well!

I know, no ring yet... But it's going to happen. 

Adventure is out there!!
