John Lasseter Disney Quotations

In overseeing both Disney and Pixar Animation, each studio has a unique culture.

When Walt Disney was making his films, he trusted his instincts and made films for himself, but they appealed to everybody, not just kids.

Pixar's short films convinced Disney that if the company could produce memorable characters within five minutes, then the confidence was there in creating a feature film with those abilities in story and character development.

The Walt Disney Animation studio is the studio that Walt Disney started himself in 1923, and it's never stopped and never closed its doors and never stopped making animation, and it keeps going as kind of the heart and soul of the company.

I never quite understood why Disney hadn't made a sincere fairy tale since 'Beauty and the Beast.'

I promise you we will make films that entertain you the moment the lights go down. We're making Disney the one place you have to work (as an animator).
