Humor is the easiest to achieve the 'heart' is always the toughest, because you can't tell people to feel a certain way.
John Lasseter
This is what I always tell my filmmakers-you have to do tons of research, because you don't know where the inspiration is going come from.
John Lasseter
If you can think about it, you can create it.
John Lasseter
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
One of the big technical advances that's really great looking is the water.
