When it comes to Pixar's next film, Luca, we're looking into sea monsters However, this is Pixar, and that means when it comes to "monsters," we're not talking anything too scary looking While Pixar movies might challenge what kind of emotional story points adults and children can handle, they aren't often scary visually Last month,[...]

Wonder Woman 1984 continues to either prove that the HBO Max hybrid release model is not going to work at all or that people are being smart and staying

Credit: Disney/Pixar These numbers are interesting because it does show a drop from the opening weekend The thing that HBO Max could really hurt for blockbusters is repeat viewings While the theatrical experience is great it's not something that everyone wants to experience every single time they see a movie For some, seeing a movie in[...]

That is something that the people behind Pixar's new movie were doing their best to avoid They brought on a massive cultural counsel to help them with the movie and brought on Kemp Powers as a co-writer and co-director However, there is one trope that the movie does fall into but to get into it, we[...]

Sometimes a joke is a little too dark and too obscure for even Pixar, and this is the company that started off Up by cutting your heart out and laughing while you ugly cry Or maybe not There are some things that are a little much, and there was one joke, in particular, that was cut[...]

Jamie Foxx is no stranger to animation, not by a longshot, but apparently, or at least according to his 11-year-old daughter; you haven't 'made it' until you've done a Pixar movie Foxx is voicing Joe Gardner in the upcoming Soul from Pixar, so apparently, he's finally made it in the eyes of his kids; so[...]

The ones that can do both tend to be amazing, and Jame Foxx is very much one of those actors. Soul director Pete Docter was asked during the virtual global press conference what it was like working with Foxx, and he cited an anecdote about another Pixar veteran. I remember Tom Hanks saying that he felt that voice[...]

Soul is yet another homerun not just for director Pete Docter, who is almost scary good at this point, but also one of Pixar's best.

Amongst all the Disney, Star Wars, Marvel, Fox and Pixar news announced by Bob Iger, Kevin Feige and friends last night in the Disney Investors Call, there was one announcement that was egregiously missing Only because technically it wasn't actually a Disney/Pixar project But it was close enough, so why quibble over split, perfectly realised[...]

Pixar is a studio that knows how to family films and Soul isn't any different One of the reasons Pixar works so well at making family films is because they don't treat kids like small, dumb adults. In Disney and Pixar's "Soul," a middle-school band teacher named Joe finds himself in The Great Before—a fantastical place where[...]
