Pixar tells story behind 'Toy Story' (http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2005/08/23/BAGDKEBPAB1.DTL&hw=pixar&sn=001&sc=1000) -- SFGate, 2005-08-23

When Hollywood was churning out movies full of explosions and mindless violence a few years ago, Pixar Animation Studios swam against the stream with "Finding Nemo," a G-rated feature that received four Academy Award nominations and grossed more than $355 million.

Today, of course, Pixar's filmmaking wisdom is self-evident. Mention the animation studio and everyone nods wisely.

I read this story in yesterday's SF Chron. Soooo interesting.

I noticed they mentioned in the article about Joe Ranft...who passed away last week. :crying:
I read his obit last week...and wow...what a tragedy to see him suddenly taken away. Pixar lost such a creative team member. :crying:
