I loved UP!....the first....I'm gonna guess about fifteen minutes...of the movie has no words, and it tells a story that is so deeply emotionally connecting...But I understand the frustration with the art style.
Have you seen the animated short about the paper airplanes? You might like that. Also, have you seen the Disney/Salvador Dali animation? You might like that as well. It's very abstract, of course...but it's very beautiful.

In the realm of seeing connections that don't exist, I was amused that
Elijah Wood did the voice of #9.
It's the pseudo-3D-like-ish animation I hate. "Brave" was very good, except

for the 3Dishness of it. (Also I hate that all the people had pumpkins
instead of heads.) Same thing for "How to Train Your Dragon" -- good story,
excellent backgrounds, fake-3D is stinkers.
I wanted to see "Up", I wanted to see "Monster House", I wanted to see a
pile of other animated movies, but the animation style was really painful.
Ah, but Bugs Bunny, "Treasure Planet", "Hercules", "Little Mermaid",
"Hunchback"... Now *that's* great animation!
After only a short bit of the film, it looks like "9" also has excellent
animation.
Yup, that's true. In my encroaching old age, I'll retreat into crotchety-

ness and harrumph around that when it comes to animation I'm right and
everyone else is wrong and it stinks that I lost the animation wars.
