Dug is the Real Hero of Disney/Pixar’s “Up”
"Up" features one of Pixar's few Asian-American heroes and explores the institutionalized hardships elderly people face. Also, Dug is a good boy.

Flocke and Proschinki have a plan. Always, somehow. Every day, the two of them stroll through the streets and stores of the city - and, of course, they always take something with them. They always paint their next coup in the wildest colors. They have been living together in an old rust bucket for over a year. And they can't go on like this any longer. Flocke dreams of winning the lottery, Proschinski thinks in more practical terms: the "blue one", that is the spacious vintage car belonging to bigwig Harald, which they should get their hands on. But how? Well, a plan like that has to be well thought out. It goes without saying that they don't always agree right away. Things only become dangerous when an idea shakes the foundations of their friendship.
