Up, Up In The Air!

Hi Everybody!
First, a quick update:
Since I have gotten no reply from the publisher concerning by JSA: THE MODERN idea, I've set that project aside and have fortified my SANTA: WOO WOO book to include three smaller stories featuring WOODY, POCAHONTAS and WONDER WOMAN. These will be short, regular-sized books for young readers featuring double-paged spreads and simple verse to tell the stories. Even though they each have a Christmas theme, I hope they can be enjoyed at any time of the year!
Now, I just saw UP IN THE AIR, and it's one of "those" movies. It could have been a character study of a downsizing expert (George Clooney) who himself gets downsized, but no. It could have been a mentor/mentee movie about how Clooney trains his replacement (Anna Kendrick) and how they combine forces to defeat a common foe, but no. It could have been how an isolated Clooney makes a deep connection with a fellow air travel addict (Vera Farmiga) and reprioritizes his life, but no. Like its' protagonist Clooney, the movie ultimately refuses to commit to anything more than a day-in-the-life, when it could have gone after bigger game. Like a seatbelt that is not quite long enough to fasten shut, this movie simply floats off the screen, squandoring a charming Clooney, a disarming Farmiga, and a crisp Kendrick.
Happy shopping, be good!
