Iron Bess Posted January 24, 2006 Posted January 24, 2006 Okay, life is good. And it's more then good for our stock! Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
hurricane Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 It is a good thing - let's hope ol' John and Steve can breathe some life back into the animated movies there... Plus I know it makes Eisner's blood boil that Steve has more stock than he does. -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Syera Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Pardon my skepticism, but have you a published article to back this up? Because... if this is true, I'm so gonna be spitting nails.
hurricane Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Uh, got to cnn.com - it's the main story along with an interview with Bob Iger and Steve Jobs.... -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Ace of Harbor Bay Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 It's true for sure. I have many friends and fellow animators that work for Pixney and they would know. Not to mention that Iron Bess would know as she works for Disnar. This will sure be interesting. www.pirate4hire.com Pirates of Harbor Bay
Syera Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Argh. *Spits nails* So much for my dream of Pixar leaving Disney forever and doing what Pixar does best: make movies that make Disney's current creative "geniuses" and writers look like gradeschoolers. With a few exceptions, Disney hasn't made anything really remarkable now for... well, years.
hurricane Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 I think that's why the marriage makes sense. Disney can't do what Pixar can do and Pixar can't do what Disney does. The merchandising and integration of the Pixar characters will come by way of the parks. Right now, they are there on a relatively small scale. But now Buzz can be there right beside Mickey - it's something the little generation wants and will keep them going to the parks. When is the last time the classic Disney characters made a movie - Pixar can provide a whole new generation of classic characters, from Buzz to Nemo to Woody to Scully. I think they both know that. -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Syera Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 This may seem strange, but to me it feels degrading to the characters to have people dress up as them and whatnot for various events. Probably because to my mind, they are violating the character.
Black Hearted Pearl Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 The Wild Nothing much on it yet, but previews on this Disney movie make it seem like Madagascar redo. I'm very glad Pixar's people are back. ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.
Syera Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 *Groans* Not AGAIN! Anyone want to shoot whoever is responsible for this mirror-image movie-ing and get 'im out of our misery?
Iron Bess Posted January 25, 2006 Author Posted January 25, 2006 I've seen *Cars* Danger there is every kid under 6 will want to be driving now AND trying to have conversations with the family car. Sorry lad, I think it's a happy thing and besides, Steve is an ornry as Eisner (why they couldn't get along) and Bob is a quiet authority. I think they will do well. Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
Iron Bess Posted January 25, 2006 Author Posted January 25, 2006 Pardon my skepticism, but have you a published article to back this up? Don't need one lad/lass/whoever. Worked for the Mouse House 35 year and better. We knew before 6am this mornong but I had to wait until the press release to post it. You just got it first 'tis all. Sorry the news gives you gas. Do you own any Disney stock? Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
hurricane Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Yes, I think Steve and Bob are a great team together. I look forward to great things that neither one of them could achieve on their own... and I don't even own stock. But I do know my son knows Pixar's characters as well or better than the Disney ones. He goes to movies. That's where kids know these folks from, as much as we all did when we were younger. I think it's a great marriage. Jealous you got to see Cars by the way. I would love to see the cars and Magic Kingdom has redos as those characters. I'd even take a turn.... Too bad John can't run in and halt the PotC changes.... He probably would if he could. - Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Iron Bess Posted January 25, 2006 Author Posted January 25, 2006 We are starting a pool here at work... What will they be calling us?? Disnar or Pixney?? Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!

Nay, back to the good old days of "A subsidary of .....(fill in the blank)." ~Black Hearted Pearl The optimist expects the wind. The pessimist complains about the wind. The realist adjusts the sails.
hurricane Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 I'd have to go with Disnar... sound more piratey - Disnarrrrrr... -- Hurricane -- Hurricane ______________________________________________________________________ http://piratesofthecoast.com/images/pyracy-logo1.jpg Captain of The Pyrates of the Coast Author of "Memoirs of a Buccaneer: 30 Year Before the Mast" (Published in Fall 2011) Scurrilous Rogue Stirrer of Pots Fomenter of Mutiny Bon Vivant & Roustabout Part-time Carnival Barker Certified Ex-Wife Collector Experienced Drinking Companion "I was screwed.

Iron Bess Posted January 25, 2006 Author Posted January 25, 2006 ROTDLMBAO!!! I'll that along mate!! Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
Capt Grey Posted January 26, 2006 Posted January 26, 2006 Actually "Pixey" works better because of Tinkerbell's pixie dust. Now that Dreamworks is going south, does that mean Jeffry Katzenberg will be back? And does Pixar have to move down to Burbank? (Ewwww. ) Great news for stockholders. So Bess, when can I come up and inspect my investment? Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.

So Bess, when can I come up and inspect my investment? Naw... Pixey is to dandified. Jeffrey will NOT be coming back, Pixney will remain up North (for several years at least ) and you can come when ever you like although we are swamped right now with new pilots being done. Send me an email off list kiddo. Well, you may not realize it but your looking at the remains of what was once a very handsome woman!
Capt Grey Posted January 27, 2006 Posted January 27, 2006 Sure thing, matey. I'm booked until March anyway. Captain, we always knew you were a whoopsie. Rumors of my death are entirely premature.
Capt.Rummy Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I like Disney... they're ok at what they do best. Cartoons with cheezy musical morals... And great pirate rides. I love Pixar for what they do best. Toons that arent cheezy, are moral and musical free and funnier than any Disney cartoon put out on the market. They do not mix and should not mix. Their child would be ugly. Real ugly.
Patrick Hand Posted January 30, 2006 Posted January 30, 2006 I'm not sure.... I might be totaly off on this.... What was the company that Disney owned that they used for non-Disney movies?.... That Dragon one pops into mind......are Disney and Pixar going to remaine seperate? but kinda work together? You know that you can take kids to a Disney movie, and it will be "good clean fun" (some scenes may be a little scary for real young children..) And there is nothing wrong with that.... but some storys "work" better with some non-Disney humor.... now they can do both......

Disney never owned Pixar before the merger however they did have several TOP Disney animators who had left Disney working for them. Ugly children aside, it's alread been consumated so we'll see what we get. Say.... does thatmake Buzz Lightyear, Woody, Nemo, Scully, mike and Boo all b***ards?? Say it ain't so!!
