Line 113:
* [[Evil Gloating]]: During the swordfight, both fighters throw out their back. {{spoiler|Muntz}} is the first to recover, but instead of attacking {{spoiler|Carl}}, he knocks him over asks if he has any last words.
* [[Evil Sounds Deep]]: Alpha is a [[Double Subversion]], as his collar gives him a squeaky voice, but only when it's not working right. However, when his voice becomes deep, it becomes ''really'' deep.
* [[Experienced Protagonist]]: Carl Fredericksen is a senior citizen whose day job used to be selling balloons at the zoo. Nevertheless, he has the sense to pack for an ostensibly permanent trip to Paradise Falls and keeps Russell as safe as possible. They end up working together to save a giant bird named Kevin, with Carl realizing he can be [[badass]], and Russell taking inspiration after seeing Carl in action. Realizing that he needs Russell in his life as much as the kid needs him, {{spoiler|Carl becomes his surrogate grandparent by the end of the movie and awards him Ellie's grape soda badge, knowing that Ellie would have wanted him to pass on the gift}}.
* [[Expy]]:
** Carl was supposedly modeled on Spencer Tracy's appearance in the film ''[[Guess Who's Coming to Dinner|Guess Whos Coming to Dinner]]'', right down to the black rectangular glasses.
** Charles Muntz was modeled after [[wikipedia:File:Col Charles Lindbergh.jpg|Charles Lindbergh]], right down to the nose.
Line 156 ⟶ 157:
* [[Hollywood Law]]: Carl is one of the Legal Victims.
* [[Honor Before Reason]]: "Cross my heart."
* [[I Can See My House From Here]]: Played with in the daydream sequence where Russell is tied to a [[Bedsheet Ladder]]. He looks ''[[PunA Worldwide Punomenon|up]]'' towards Carl's house, joyfully exclaiming "Hey, I can see your house from here!"
* [[I Gave My Word]]: And Carl would go to Hell and back to keep it.
* [[Improvised Zipline]]: Carl does a short zip-line with a garden hose and his own cane.
Line 315 ⟶ 316:
* [[What Do You Mean Its Not Symbolic]]: The villain's name is Charles Muntz. Charles ''Mintz'' is the guy who basically stole [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit]] from [[Walt Disney]] (along with most of his animators).
* [[What Measure Is a Non-Cute?]]: Dug is noticeably cuter than the other henchdogs. Who are all Dobermans, bulldogs, and pitbulls. Dug, the only dog who is completely good, is a golden retriever mix.
* [[What the Hell, Hero?]]: {{spoiler|"You gave Kevin away. You just... gave her away."}} Though to be objective, Carl still needed a sturdy place to live, cherished memories or not. {{spoiler|Plus, he was [[PunA Worldwide Punomenon|up]] against a bunch of vicious dogs led by an insane supercentenarian while there was a wild fire burning down his house, there wasn't much he could do in that sort of situation.}}
* [[When Elders Attack]]: Carl attacks a worker manhandling his mailbox with his cane at the start of the movie. His overreaction serves as a harbinger for the plot to begin.
* [[Wide-Eyed Idealist]]: [[Children Are Innocent|Russell]], to the point that he spills Kevin's existence in Muntz's airship.
