Pixar has decided it’s time to take things a more leisurely pace.
The animation studio has decided to slow the pace of its sequels so that it can focus more on original content.
For artistic reasons … it’s really important that we do an original film a year,” Pixar president Ed Catmull tells BuzzFeed. “Every once in a while, we get a film where we want or people want to see something continuing in that world — which is the rationale behind the sequel. They want those characters, which means we were successful with them. But if you keep doing that, then you aren’t doing original films.”
Pixar will have two movies out next year — the original movie, Inside Out, set inside the human brain and the sequel Finding Dory.
Do you think it’s a good idea for Pixar to slow down a bit?
Quality cannot be rushed.
Good, because while MU was a fun movie, it was so unoriginal that Dreamworks could have easily produced this one. A good flick, that I liked only a little more than CARS.
