The voters from the animation branch will love that it tells a real story by using animation ... That's one of the things that [Pixar chief and animation-branch governor] John Lasseter always says: just because it's an animated film doesn't mean it has to have a cartoon story.
Keeping cartoon characters trapped in amber is one of the surest routes to irrelevancy ... While Mickey remains a superstar in many homes, particularly overseas, his static nature has resulted in a generation of Americans — the one that grew up with Nickelodeon and Pixar — that knows him, but may not lo...
Wes Anderson’s whimsical take on Roald Dahl’s 1970 book stands a great chance of competing against the likes of Pixar and 'Ponyo.'
Honestly, Wall-E's capable of a lot of expression. Even if I don't take too much artistic license in his look, Pixar designed Wall-E with a surprising range of motion
again with the focus just on the story and the characters. It was about three years in that John Lasseter (Pixar pioneer) came to us and said, ‘Hey, there are some really cool new developments that have happened with 3D.’
All in all, Ice Age: Dawn of the Dinosaurs is an improvement over its massively forgettable predecessor: generally inoffensive (save perhaps for history buffs), a bit more charming than most of the non-Pixar competition, and frivolous in the best possible sense.
It is going to be a combination, Andrew Stanton comes out of Pixar and the amount of research and development that they do on this stuff is incredible. And I'll be involved in part of that.

Over the years, I think the show has become like a Pixar movie ... It's subversive and ironic but transcends age, which is one reason it's not as well known as it could be. People see it as children's theater. Which it is, but not really. Adults would appreciate it. It's a marketing problem. I can't eve...
It's like Pixar - I just want good, clean plots
This strikes me as more of a corporate job than necessarily a creative or green-lighting job ... I don't necessarily see him green-lighting (approving) Pixar or Marvel movies, at least not initially.
A lot of times people look at our movies and think, 'What the heck, that doesn't work out on my numbers chart.' With Up they might say, 'It won't appeal to kids, they hate old people.' Or, 'You can't have an action adventure film that stars a 78-year-old man.' But from the top, Pixar is different
We work very hard in all of the Pixar films to not make anything in the imagery that causes people to think of something other than the story
My sources in the animation biz tell me that Disney, which will make Toy Story 3 without Pixar, cannot find a director to guide the project….Every single animator of note has turned down the director's job. They don't want to cross Pixar. They've become the only deal in town.
I don't like taking away from 'T1' — I just love 'Toy Story.' The original 'Toy Story' is delicate and natural and fresh and authentic, because we had nothing to compare it to. 'Toy Story 2,' because Pixar and [John] Lasseter are so wonderful and honorable, it's just the next episode. I wish they didn't...
It's a great 3-D movie because (Pixar) had discovered this ability to move through these spaces in 3-D ... We were just never able to project them in 3-D, and now we can.
We're very conscious of the economic realities of producing animation in Canada and that's one of the reasons we're looking at a live-action/animation hybrid rather than going a full-on Pixar route ... If you go that [Pixar] route you are competing at that level, and that requires a $70-million budget.

Edgar Rice Burroughs was a really smart writer, so smart that some of the stuff I can hardly wrap my head around, so that's up to Pixar to see if they can put in visually to life
The new Pixar picture 'Wall-E' is one for the ages, a masterpiece to be savoured before or after the end of the world.
Some of Pixar's productions ... have reached heights of invention, speed and wit not seen in animation since the work done by Chuck Jones at Warner Bros. in the 1940s. In 'Ratatouille', the level of moment-by-moment craftsmanship is a wonder.
Say we make 12-14 movies a year: two are animated from Disney/Pixar; eight probably will be Disney live action; three to four Touchstone films a year; and now we get another four to six Touchstone movies from DreamWorks, so it's going to be perfect for us -- just the right production schedule
The future of Disney is probably going to be driven much more by the combination of Pixar and Marvel
