As if this marine biologist needed any more reason to adore the folks that brought us one of the greatest ocean themed films of all time…
I not only thoroughly enjoyed UP, but must also commend Pixar for the distance they went to help little Colby Curtin. So on the summer solstice, we celebrate the amazing animation studio with a clip from Finding Nemo. (Watch for the shout out to sea cucumbers):

I want to see this. Thought the trailer for it is absolutely amazing, and maybe the best I’ve seen so far this year, even better for the new “Star Trek”. Thanks for your ringing endorsement.

Would love to see this film! I loved Toy Story and the other animated one with those bugs.
Talking of films, the first time I saw ‘Honey I Shrunk The Kids’ was my near favourite, as the funniest part was when the dad was looking for his (shrunk) kids in the lawn, wearing a magnifying glass, whilst suspended on a pole, with what was it on the other side that was balancing his weight, a TV? I always remember that very part and having a heavy cold at the time, but it didn’t stop me laughing anyway!

Adorable Nemo, Up, and a heartwarming gesture to young Colby Curtin.. a good way to begin a summer solstice.
