Winnie the Pooh Goes Up is an upcoming Winnie the Pooh/Disney-Crossover film to be made by Daniel Esposito. It will appear on Google Drive in the near future.
Plot[]
Renowned explorer Charles F. Muntz claims to have found a new species of giant bird at Paradise Falls, South America. However, archaeologists study the skeleton of the bird and conclude that Muntz fabricated it. Disgraced, Muntz vows to bring back a live specimen and will not return until he does so.
In the 1920s, youngster Carl Fredricksen meets Ellie. Both are aspiring explorers who idolize Muntz, and the two quickly become friends. Ellie reveals her dream to Carl about going to live by Paradise Falls. The two eventually get married and repeatedly save up for a trip to Paradise Falls, but always end up spending the money on more pressing needs. As an elderly man, Carl finally buys tickets for the trip, but Ellie falls ill and dies before they can go.
Carl continues living in the house he and Ellie fixed up, stubbornly holding out while the neighborhood around him is replaced by skyscrapers. When he unintentionally injures a construction worker, the developer trying to buy his place seizes the opportunity. The court deems him a public menace and orders him to move to a retirement home. However, Carl resolves to keep his promise to Ellie and turns his house into a makeshift airship by attaching hundreds of helium balloons to it (having worked as a balloon salesman).
Russell, a young Wilderness Explorer trying to earn his final merit badge for "Assisting the Elderly", becomes an accidental stowaway. Before Carl can drop Russell off, a cumulonimbus storm drives them all the way to South America. The house lands on a tepui opposite Paradise Falls. Carl and Russell harness themselves to the still-buoyant house and begin to walk it across the mesa, hoping to reach the falls before the balloons deflate. Russell encounters a tall colorful bird whom he names "Kevin", who is trying to gather food for her chicks. They then meet a Golden Retriever named Dug, who wears a special collar that allows him to speak, and who vows to take the bird to his master. The next day, they encounter a pack of aggressive dogs (also with special collars) led by Alpha, a Doberman Pinscher, and are taken to their master, the elderly Muntz.
Muntz invites Carl and Russell aboard his dirigible, where he explains to them that he is still searching for the giant bird he promised to bring back. Russell notes the bird's similarity to Kevin and Muntz becomes hostile, thinking they are attempting to capture the bird for themselves—he implies he has killed other visitors he suspected of doing the same thing. Carl and Russell flee with Kevin and Dug, but Kevin is injured in the process. Muntz captures Kevin, then sets fire to Carl's house, which pops many of the balloons. Carl is forced to decide whether to save his house or Kevin; he chooses his house, upsetting Russell. Carl and Russell finally park the house at Paradise Falls, where Carl sadly looks through Ellie's childhood scrapbook and finds that Ellie had added photos of the two of them during their happy marriage. At the end of the book, a final note from Ellie thanks him for their "adventure" and encourages Carl to have a new one.
Reinvigorated, Carl goes outside, only to see Russell flying away, using some balloons and a leaf blower, to try to rescue Kevin. By removing all the furniture from his house, Carl lightens the house enough for him and Dug to follow. Muntz captures Russell, but Carl and Dug board the dirigible and free both Russell and Kevin. Muntz pursues them around the airship and corners Kevin, Dug, and Russell inside Carl's house. They escape by jumping back onto the dirigible after Carl lures Kevin with chocolate; Muntz leaps after them, but gets caught on some balloon lines and falls to the ground. The house, having lost too many balloons, descends out of sight through the clouds.
Carl and Russell reunite Kevin with her chicks and fly the dirigible back home. Russell receives his "Assisting the Elderly" badge, with Carl himself giving Russell the badge as well as the grape soda badge Ellie gave to him as a boy. Unbeknownst to Carl, his house lands on the cliff beside Paradise Falls, fulfilling his promise. The end credits show snapshots of Carl, Russell, and Dug happily enjoying life together.
