UP is a great and terrific movie.

With these films and these actions, pixar demonstrates not only their high quality standards but the commitment they have with the kids, presenting intelligent stories and not just stupidity like madagascar and all that cheap crap.

And some people think transformers is a good kids movie. Cant believe it.

We all know pixar is great on-screen, now we found out they are excellent off-screen too.

this should be more noticeable, this is a great story.

when good people do good things to only the benifit those thier doing it for, these are the stories/articles people need. especially in these times.

Everyone who reads this thread should try to do a kindness for someone today, even if it’s just an understanding smile and a kind comment to a harrassed mother with a screaming child in a supermarket line.

Call your parents, tell them you love them, and hug your own kids, and marvel at how fortunate you are to have them.

Make the world a better place by being a better human. Even for five minutes.

Blast you Rob! You just had to make me get misty! May I have Screen Rant’s permission to copy part of this story and e-mail it, and your web address, to some friends?

WOW
it… kind of feel good about the world, knowing that some people in big industries like Pixar can do stuff without money helping the case.

Good to see a company reach out, behind the cameras, and help grant a child’s wish.
My thoughts and prayers go out to Colby’s family.

There is nothing more sad in this world than a sick child.

I usually don’t read stories like these but that was extremely cool for Pixar to do. RIP Colby, you will be missed by many.

Sad story, but still touching. Great of pixar, but it’s a bit over shadowed by the tragedy of the situation.

Thank you for sharing this heart-warming story. You never hear much positivity in the media, so when a big corporation does something nice like this, it is wonderful to hear. I am glad young Colby got the chance to see the movie before she passed away. Rest in peace, Colby.

i’m with you greenknight, when you read or hear about stories like this it makes you step back and think all the sh*t in your life is nothing compared to what some people are going through…

thanks for posting this Rob, not a lot of websites would have done the same.
