I am writing about this weeks box office standings; but I am thinking about the movie Up.  It’s a classic in my heart, already. I saw it today with five of my daughter’s friends, not one of her friends didn’t like it.  Clearly, Up is one of the best stories I have seen in the movie theaters in a long time.  Pixar sets a fine example of how to tell a visual story while placing the appropriate wit and humor here and there.

Back to the Weekly Box Office, Night at the Museum: Battle at the Smithsonian is the top movie because it’s a family movie and hits a broader audience.  I was surprised to see Terminator Salvation above Star Trek with Angels & Demons following close behind.

This weekend it’s Up all the way.  If you have seen the trailers for Up, they don’t do the film justice.
