One of the fun things about play is making up stories.

You cannot base a whole movie on just the imagery alone. It has to be the story and the characters.

'Bambi' is an amazing film, and when you watch it today, it's just as beautiful. It's timeless. It's just as beautiful today as it was back then.

I quickly realized that this medium had a lot to offer someone like me. To do Disney-quality hand-drawn cartoons, you have to be a master of two art forms. Seriously, you have to be able to draw like a Leonardo da Vinci or a Michelangelo. But also you have to know movement and timing and control that through 24 frames a second.
John Lasseter
There is such amazing talent at Disney. My job is 100% creative, and I am very excited to creatively lead them.

We make the kind of movies we like to watch. I love to laugh. I love to be amazed by how beautiful it is. But I also love to be moved to tears. There's lots of heart in our films.

Every single Pixar film, at one time or another, has been the worst movie ever put on film. But we know. We trust our process. We don't get scared and say, 'Oh, no, this film isn't working.'
John Lasseter

You can achieve all the things you want to do, but it's much better to do it with loved ones around you family and friends, people that you care about that can help you on the way and can celebrate you, and you can enjoy the journey.

The spy genre is something I loved.It also extends to the bad guy because I think, to me, what I love the most about the spy genre is when you have a great bad guy. What makes a great bad guy, to me, is the logic. What he's about has to make sense to me, that if I was in his shoes, yeah, right, that makes sense.
John Lasseter
I realized that people make cartoons for a living. It had never dawned on me that you could do this as a career.
John Lasseter
Animation is the only thing I ever wanted to do in my whole life. I have no desire for live-action or anything else.
John Lasseter
When I look at the success I have, it's because of my creative thinking skills.
John Lasseter
I believe in research you cannot do enough research believability comes out of what's real.
