Fill up the balloons, strap in and be sure to bring along some chocolate, because OscarWatch is moving on 'Up' with the 2009 Best Animated - SQUIRREL! Feature. Matt and Steve waste no time in getting to the heartwrenching moments that have defined the film and reveal that at the end of the day, they're a couple of softies. But, not to bring the mood down, we talk MVP of the show Dug and long for a world where his optimism and joy were more prevalent. Finally, Matt throws down a bold and perhaps controversial statement about this year's actual Best Picture winner. Did it deserve it? Find out!

All that and a brief primer on what makes a great villain.,
