More quotes by Andrew Stanton
Use what you know. Draw from it. It doesnt always mean plot or fact. It means capturing a truth from your experiencing it, expressing values you personally feel deep down in your core.
Andrew Stanton
I think in the future we might see things arrive the way Prince announces a concert where a few days before the show he announces it and tickets just go up. You might see that with movies and other things.
Andrew Stanton
Frankly, there isn't anyone you couldn't learn to love once you've heard their story.

Don't give [the audience] four give them two plus two.
Andrew Stanton
I was that kind of kid that was going to the movies every weekend, I couldnt get enough of the movies, and now I get to make them. So I kind of have a one-track mind.
Andrew Stanton
A major threshold is passed when you mature enough to acknowledge what drives you, and to take the wheel and steer it.

I've always been shocked and waiting-for-the-other-shoe-to-drop that a girl would ever talk to me, let alone want to marry me.

Andrew Stanton
I'm a family man, I have kids, and I go to the movies. And I'm just going to make the kind of movie I want to see.
Andrew Stanton
There's a lot of downsides to social media, but one of the nice things is that you can cut through all the BS and go straight to the person and ask them directly. I think that's a wonderful thing. I love talking to people who are true fans or who have a true love of cinema, and so if I can talk to them directly, great.
Andrew Stanton
If you don't think a film looks good then that is just a reflection of how bad the artist was that was using the paint that is really good.
Andrew Stanton
The thing about working at Pixar is that everyone around you is smarter and funnier and cleverer than you and they all think the same about everyone else. Its a nice problem to have.
Andrew Stanton
In fact, I don't think I'll ever make anything that will feel as divinely dropped in my lap as the opening of 'Wall-E.'
Andrew Stanton
And I'm not anti-sequel, but I just feel like there are very few ideas that are meant to be continued.
Andrew Stanton
I almost feel like it's an obligation to not further the status quo if you become somebody with influence and exposure.
Andrew Stanton
I've always felt you unearth story, like you're on an archeological dig.
Andrew Stanton
Most people know me at Pixar as the guy that doesn't like to do sequels or very reluctant to do sequels.
Andrew Stanton
If you want someone’s attention, whisper.
Andrew Stanton
No one's going to see my mistakes I just need the safety of these mistakes to lead me to the right answers.
Andrew Stanton
The way Pixar has always worked is that we think of an idea and then we make it. We don't develop lots of ideas and then pick one.
