Video Mash-Up: Pixar’s: Gran Up Torino
space
Empress Eve   |  @   |  

UpThe folks over at Funny or Die have managed once again to create the perfect video mash-up.

This time around it’s of two of this year’s best films: Pixar’s Up with the Clint Eastwood film Gran Torino. You might not think an animated kids movie could successfully be meshed with an R-rated violent film, but after watching this video, you’ll be surprised at how similar the two movies are.

Both movies center on curmudgeonly widowers whose neighborhood has changed around them; both leading gravely voiced old men turn to violence when things get out of hand and both men take on young proteges. Neither of them like anyone on their lawn.

Unlike many of Funny or Die’s mash-ups, this one is not so funny per se, given the intense storyline used — the dialogue of Gran Torino set to the scenes from Up. But, it is majorly clever and worth watching.

Check out the video here below.
