The history of Pixar, thus far, can be divided into two sections: money sucking hobby of Steve Jobs and incredibly successful movie studio. The dividing line between the two parts of Pixar’s history is the movie Toy Story. The brain child of John Lasseter, Toy Story…

... talk about the evolution of story for Princess and the Frog ... Ron Clements: Disney has actually been interested in the "Frog Prince" all the way back to "Beauty and the Beast." They never got a version they were totally happy with. Weirdly enough, Pixar had been developing versions and they never got quite a version they were happy with. Their version actually started in Chicago...

Newsarama has a two-part interview with Pete Docter and Bill Peterson, who (not so coincidentally!) are the men behind today’s DVD and BD release of Up. The piece goes into a lot of details about the inspiration, motivation, and construction of the film. “The first pitch to John Lasseter made him cry…with no visuals! Did [...]

This spring, Wall Street was fretting over the uncertain commercial prospects of Pete Docter's Up . But six months and $646 million after its release, it's Pixar's second-highest grossing film ever and, thanks to the Academy's expansion of the Best Picture category, it stands a good chance at being the studio's first movie to compete for Oscar's top award. On the occasion of Up 's release on Blu-Ray...

A rare bit of bad press for Pixar emerged in September, when the company was sued by Norwegian lamp manufacturer Luxa AS for trademark infringement. Of course, the Pixar brand has used one of those desk lamps in its logo for about 20 years. John Lasseter 's short film that inspired the familiar logo is called Luxo, Jr. So, really, Luxa AS had a claim then and probably should have said something before...

George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter — the names bandied around for the title of Greatest American Songwriter are a familiar bunch. Less well-known are the handles of the Sherman Brothers. Yet their songs are just as memorable — maybe moreso. As "Toy Story" director John Lasseter says in the documentary "The Boys: The Sherman Brothers' Story," once you hear a...

A few months back we were all surprised by Luxo AS’s lawsuit over Disney/Pixar’s new uses of it’s iconic mascot, and more importantly, what would come of this court case. According to The Hollywood Reporter’s Esq. , both companies came to an "amicable settlement" over the conflict. It almost plays out like a custody case determining who has rights to Jr. The mess all...

Today as I stumbled into the Walt Disney Animation hat building, employees were streaming out. "They're holding a town hall at the equestrian center in Griffith Park! ..." Which I understood to mean, "John [Lasseter], Ed [Catmull], and Andrew [Millstein] are holding a big employees' meeting down Riverside Drive at the big horse building ..." I went into the studio anyway. A layout...

LOS ANGELES – "Toy Story" has always been a 3-D film, even if moviegoers never saw it that way. Computer-generated animation made the 1995 Pixar smash 3-D by design, with virtual cameras moving through a digital space, capturing the mass and dimension of each character and setting. At the time, though, theaters lacked the high-tech projectors required to show it that way, forcing filmmakers to collapse...
