No Marvel Movies for Pixar
Ever since Disney bought Marvel there were rumors and speculation that Pixar might end up taking on some Marvel projects. That can all be put to rest now, because according to John Lasseter Pixar won't be getting involved with any Marvel properties. Here's what Lasseter had to say in a recent interview when he was asked abuot a Pixar Marvel team-up.
No, Pixar, we are -- Disney has been great. Bob Iger is phenomenal. I'm Chief Creative Officer of Disney Animation as well, and with Pixar it's like, "Keep doing what you're doing, guys." It's a filmmaker-driven studio. All of the ideas come from the filmmakers themselves. Working with the filmmakers on ideas.
He was then asked, "So there probably wouldn't be any kind of chance of seeing that kind of team-up Then?"
No, not at Pixar. We have The Incredibles, so we've done superheroes here ourselves and so we have that kind of history with Brad Bird doing The Incredibles.
Way to be close-minded Pixar. Sure they've done some great stuff, but why the hell not take a crack at some Marvel properties? Personally I think it's a shame we won't be seeing Marvel and Pixar teaming up on a film, but life goes on and each studio will continue to pump out awesome movies. So, either way no harm will be done. What are your thoughts on the matter?
