To note – Susan Boyle did not break down due to losing but due the stress and adjustment of participating in the series: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/entertainment/8076413.stm.

Up was so incredibly good. I have to admit I cried a few times. The story was a little slow in a couple of spots but otherwise another amazing pixar movie.

Oh, and please! Angelina Jolie isn’t too old and even if they wanted to put her in the part she would decline since the second movie didn’t do so well as the first. Plus, they couldn’t afford her since she gets 15-20 million a movie!

Angelina is too old at 33?? WOW!
I told my 6 year old son, “They are making another Tomb Raider movie, but Angelina is not gonna play Lara” and he goes “Oh, that’s gonna suck, I’m not even gonna watch that” hahahha.

Susan Boyle had a low coping mechanism to begin with – they new that and the fact she was brain damaged at birth … She needed special care from the show and didn’t get it.
