I think what audiences love is to be entertained-thoroughly, deeply entertained, and that's what I've always set out to do.

John Lasseter
Animation is the one type of movie that really does play for the entire audience. Our challenge is to make stories that connect for kids and adults.

I do what I do because of Walt Disney - his films and his theme park and his characters and his joy in entertaining.
John Lasseter

John Lasseter
If you can think about it, you can create it.
