Welcome to the Animation Monday segment! Each week here on Geek Alabama, Animation Monday will feature stuff from the animation and cartoon worlds. Animation has become an extremely popular format in today’s media driven world. And we here at Geek Alabama love to feature animation content!
When Andrew Stanton was hired in 1990 as Pixar’s ninth employee and second animator, he had never made a movie. Today, he’s written or directed ten of the company’s most beloved animated films, including the “Toy Story” franchise, “Finding Nemo,” and “WALL-E.” His latest film – “Toy Story 5” – explores what happens when the toys audiences have known for decades encounter a new threat in the form of a frog-themed tablet.
WSJ’s Ben Fritz sat down with Stanton to discuss his illustrious career, Pixar’s unique approach to filmmaking, and why their movies are so good at making you cry. “Toy Story 5” is now in theaters.
