Like all of you, Iâm a huge fan of Pixar. Without a doubt they make the best movies out of any studio and each one seems to raise the bar in terms of animation and storytelling. While people love to debate each Pixar release in terms of how it compares to their previous titles, most of us agree that âWall-Eâ is near the top.
After all, not only did the film do incredible business around the world, but itâs on a lot of criticâs lists for best picture of the year. In fact, at tonightâs LAFCA ceremony, it won the award for best picture! And trust meâ¦I know this groupâ¦theyâre hard to impress.
Anyway, at tonightâs ceremony I managed to speak with âWall-eâ Producers Jim Morris and Lindsey Collins. If theyâre names sound familiar to youâ¦itâs because I interviewed them not too long ago up at Pixar. Hereâs the link.
Producers Jim Morris and Lindsey Collins
- Whatâs been their reaction to Wall-e winning all the awards and being on most of the critics top ten lists
- With the uniqueness of Wall-e â with the 45 minutes of no talking â was there ever talk of not making the movie or was it always embraced
- Up talk â I mention how they screened half the movie at AICNâs BNAT Festival. The reaction was huge. How do they raise the ante with every release
- Lindsey talks about her reaction to watching Up
- I ask if they are thinking about doing sequels to any other of their movies besides Cars and Toy Story â I mention Incrediblesâ¦.
- Blu-ray talk â I ask what otherâs are coming besides Monsters, Inc. and A Bugâs Life
- Toy Story 3 in 3D talk
- I ask what shot in either Toy Story 1 or 2 looked amazing in 3D â Jim says the gas station scene
