Youtube user whoiseyevan has raised his game with his latest work, breaking Pixar’s Up down to it’s constituent molecules (harmless grouch, eager boy scout, talking dog) and reconstructing it through the medium of 60s Hollywood. Carl Fredericksen is now Spencer Tracy, and his nemesis is Kirk Douglas. The editor comments, “I have always enjoyed old Disney movies from the 60s and 70s. They managed to tap into such an imaginatively odd combination of situations and characters. In many ways, Pixar’s “Up” continues this charming tradition with its flying houses, talking dogs and gigantic flightless birds”. You can view whoiseyevan’s other ‘premakes’, including The Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark at his Youtube channel. Now including a Making Of his Up! video.
