Now with ... "Hey, it's REALLY Pixar on Sonora!" Add On.
When you're having your own bash in Anaheim, it's good to save the big new movie announcements for that instead of San Diego's ComiCon.
Disney Announces Two New Pixar Films
The first movie is set for 2014 and looks inside people's minds. Directed by Peter Docter, the Academy Award-winning director of Up, the new Pixar toon is just starting its designs and sets and anticipating castings. The other movie is about dinosaurs set sometime in the future. ...
The wrinkle I occasionally forget is, Diz Co. has the Emeryville Studio, also the Burbank studio, to turn out animated product, so neither one has to release two pictures a year the way DreamWorks Animation does to hit the two big movie seasons.
The way things work now, the Mouse has all its animation bases covered. Even without IM Digital.

Really glad Greg's dinosaur film was picked up as a feature. The guy is a huge dinosaur fanatic and he's been working on that pitch at Pixar for at least a decade. There hasn't been a "good" dinosaur film since '93, hopefully this one fixes that.
Who's Greg?
Mr. Lasseter, who also oversees DisneyToon, said that if "Planes" is successful, he may build additional titles around boats, trains and other vehicles.
"It's a bigger idea that can be expanded," he said.

Steve, is it true what the anon above said? Have they started working on other vehicles movies?
I've only heard that they're working on a sequel to "Planes".
I'm only aware of "Planes."
No trains. No motorcycles or submatines of surface ships.
Who's Greg?
That planes trailer doesn't look half bad!!!
Anyone who knows Greg knows he loves dinosaurs, and that he had nothing at all to do with the creation of this upcoming Pixar film. Nothing.
Thanks. I've always heard it referred to as "Bob Peterson's project".
