Right...that was what I was thinking. If you don’t have everything set up to watch on your PC (assuming they had a PC that could even handle watching a movie off the Internet...) it could be really be problematic.

Especially for a family under stress with a dying child.

Normally, I would never support a movie with Ed Asner.

But in this case I make an exception.

You’re welcome. An addendum though, I believe if you don’t enforce your copyrights, when you finally do you may be looking a less money you can get from the infringer since you have in the past shown your copyright isn’t very valuable to you. But Disney enforces its copyrights, so that’s not an issue here.

Well there’s no video to watch, but it’s a sad event nonetheless, thanks for the ping, now I’m interested in the movie.

Me too—I’ve heard good reviews from a couple of people.

I could have done without reading this. Poor little kid.

Amazing that someone could spin the story this way.

It is about 50 miles from Burbank to Huntington Beach, and they FLEW someone up with a bunch of stuffed characters and the DVD.


Pixar is in Emeryville near Oakland (site of the ice cream parlor in the film) so it’s a bit more than 50 miles. I hope the child got to hug those stuffed toys - since she couldn’t actually see Dug and the dog pack in the film.
