View Photo »Dick Cook is a really smart guy, but it was time for him to move on ... Disney's Bob Iger felt he wasn't getting as much firepower as he wanted from his own group so he went out and got Pixar for a lot money, he got DreamWorks, he got producers Scott Rudin and Jerry Bruckheimer, and then he acquired Mar...
As you can imagine, there’s a lot of excitement about the first black Disney fairytale. If it makes money at the box office, I’ll bet that DreamWorks and Pixar begin to make animated movies for black characters, too.
They had decided things were going one way, permanently, and then the Pixar deal came through, John Lasseter took over and everything changed
When I was up at Pixar and all the studios down here decided they were not going to do handdrawn animation any more, it broke my heart ... That's because never in the history of cinema has a film been entertaining to an audience because of the technology. It's what you do with the technology.
Every Pixar movie at one time was the worst motion picture ever made
We have 60 of your favorite Disney characters, 10 of your favorite Disney stories from classics to present, like Pixar's 'Finding Nemo' to the 'Incredibles' to 'Lion King.'
The Princess and the Frog is pleasantly, if unmemorably, drawn. But the movie as a whole never approaches the wit, cleverness, and storytelling brio of the studio’s early-1990s animation renaissance (Beauty and the Beast, The Lion King) or pretty much anything by Pixar, which makes it all too easy to fo...
Up to this point, I would say Pixar, creatively, has exceeded DreamWorks
It is ambiguous at best, and as sexy as the obese, shapeless humans living on Axiom, the flagship of the BnL fleet in Pixar movie 'WALL-E.'
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.
@santanacheers disney/pixar ftw. but disney on its own also wins.
