Pixar grants girl's dying wish to see 'Up'

Oh shut up and stop flattering yourself Pixar, your about as heart warming as the cold storage of a slaughterhouse.

But seriously I dislike Pixar and I got good reasons for it. My writing skills are not great however, so it would take me many hours work to get my views to words accurately in the way where I could try to make people understand it from my perspective. It's pretty much something for it's own topic, but not something I can be bothered to do. I'm off out in an hour, just finishing my last coffee.

I don't actually think this story is depressing.It's a beautiful story.A girl staying alive to watch a movie.It really makes you think that people really have the will or the strength to continue life to achieve something before they pass away.Whether it's a movie or an event or a person,it amazes me that people do that.

Awwww...:( R.I.P to her. That article was so sad, such a nice little girl. :cry:

Great job Pixar on fulfilling her wish. :)

Aww :(. R.I.PAshley_wwe

[QUOTE="Nerd_Man"]I don't think the main point of the article was to sob over death. The point the parents had for making it public was to tell the story of their daughter's final days and the deed of a company that put a smile on her face. That's what's touching about the story and why people are getting emotional over it. None of us here can say we knew the girl, but we felt the sense that there is still good people in this world.BiancaDK

And that is exactly how it struck me as well. Nerd_Man, the story obviously wasn't meant to be depressing. If Pixar hadn't delivered the DVD, we'd have never heard about it. But when you get right down to it, the story IS depressing, and far more so when you consider that the same suffering must be endured by millions. If you stop to think about THAT... then it will hit you hard.

I sensed some misplaced hostility towards my initial post in your initial reply, probably because you misinterpreted my thought as an attack on the little girl's situation - the old "who cares if she suffered, because millions of others suffer too" argument. But that was not my intent. It was more like "it is terrible that she suffered like this, and even more terrible that millions more of us must as well."

that's just soo sad at least one of her wishes came true before she died :cry:

I've read your reasonings in the other day, and they were quite BS. You think Pixar should go to hell because they are not utterly depressing like that Plague Dog movie you mentioned.
You sound like one of those hate elitists just for the sake of standing out from the crowd. You know Pixar is popular and if you just went out and said they flat out sucked, people will obviously give you attention. I think it's quite obvious with your comment in this thread when you bash Pixar for doing something good and not relating at all to their movies they make. Get real, you probably can't even name ten people who work at Pixar without Wikipedia'ing it, so I don't see why you would throw such a comment towards the company and people.

Most people who dislike Pixar don't come into threads like this, so I don't see why else you come to these threads other than to get attention.

It's so tragic yet so heart warming, I'm sure she died happy. After seeing the trailer just a few minutes ago, the movie looks and sounds like a blast.
Such a beautiful thing for Pixar to do as well, who cares if it's publicity and whatever? It's still a very touching thing to do, how many companies would you say would do something like that?

For those doing the whole hate thing, grow up. You don't like Pixar, boo hoo, that's your loss. So their movies aren't filled with explosions, guns and gore, big whoop, get over yourselves and accept that there are plenty of people who do enjoy Pixar movies, regardless of age and status.

Anyway may she rest in peace, the world lost an innocentangel.

I guess movie companies aren't all shallow and evilMrPraline

Either way; sad story, and I'm happy Pixar fulfilled her final wish. :)

I read it; what a sad story.I hope the girl was happy before she died. On a different note, did you notice how Pixar already has a DVD? Seriously, why do we wait half a year if they can make a DVD in less than a month?thequietguy

They probably just ripped the film to a DVD format for this occasion. I'm sure the DVD wasn't anywhere near complete as the retail version will be with the menus, bonus features, box, and such.

A testament to Pixar's greatness. Thats so awesome of them.enterawesome

I wish she had wrote a review before she died :(

ps3wizard45

that wasnt funny. at all.

Anyone else find it weird that her final wish was to see Up? I didn't read the article though.

Damn it, I was going to go play some L4D, but suddenly I don't feel like doing ANYTHING...:cry: except cry!

That very nice for Pixar to do that.:) Sad that the girl died, but good to see that she was able to see UP.

that is really sad but glad they fulfilled her wish before she passed on

I'm sorry, but that's a stupid last wish. He (or she, I didn't really read the story) should've watched Kung Fu Panda.

THERE'S that heartless soul that hates Pixar movies everyone was warning about.

Should've wished for a cure. Fail.

That is very sad. :( She is in a much better place now and doesn't have to suffer any longer.

Sad, but she got her wish, and i hope she died happy :?:cry:

This. R.I.P.

She was probably going to make it until she watched that. Almost as bad as having Patch Adams on your death bed.
