The L.A. Times reports that they've got a final title for the sequel to Finding Nemo. It's set on the California coast about a year after the first movie. I feel like Andrew Stanton got a raw deal on John Carter of Mars (I know that the release title dropped the preposition). He's one of my favorite modern directors, alongside other Pixarians. Here's the familiar-looking key art:
Electric Shadow
The Daily Grab 38: Queen of the Rock
Brenda Chapman should be on any stage where someone is accepting an award for directing Brave. One of my favorite of its many compositions:
The Daily Grab 30: The Seahorse's Fault
One of various things I like looking at are the semi-illogical causal events that would prevent the entire narrative of specific movies from happening.
If seahorses were already extinct, Finding Nemo would not have happened. Seahorses are pushy*, trust me. Nemo's arrival on Blu-ray late last year finally got the entire Pixar library on Blu-ray, with no "vaulting" in sight.
*I keep seahorses.
The Daily Grab (24): Doctersaurus
Mostly ignored due to people owning many of the shorts on other discs already, the Pixar Short Films Volume 2 set has some great student films on it from John Lasseter, Pete Docter, and Andrew Stanton. Commentary, intros, and various other things make nice additions to the shorts themselves.
Did I mention there's a dinosaur short by Pete Docter?
Ok, just checking.
