Pixar's Next Movie: The Incredibles
An anonymous reader writes: "The trailer for Pixar's next film, The Incredibles, is on the web. It's available from the official Incredibles site, the Apple trailers page, and Pixar's website. Lots of info on the official page as well! Enjoy!"
... have to release this and their next film "Cars" with Disney. After that, they no longer have to have their films distributed by Disney.
Also Disney gets the rights to any sequels for these films, if Pixar refuses to make sequels for them. (Like Toy Story 3)
- sigs are for wimps.
This picture was in production before the split.
Trolling is a art,
They plan on not renewing the contract, but they didn't break it. More info here
Ansi's and stupid tricks!
> I thought that Pixar split from the Disney
.. and then Pixar will go with somebody who gives them more than 10% of the takings. Pixar weren't looking to "screw" Disney, just be paid a fair price for what they are now worth in the market.
> Empire? What's up with that?
Disney will still release one or two movies more (The Incredibles plus the next one). Pixar had a 6 film deal with Disney, but Disney contested that "Toy Story II" counted as it was a sequel. (This is one reason that Pixar don't do sequels).
So we have
Toy Story I/II
Bugs Life
Monsters Inc
Finding Nemos
The Incredibles
One more.

And btw, by 'geared towards adults' I certainly don't mean sex and explosions, that doesn't hurt though if the plot is interesting and supports it.
I have two words that would make them GOBS of fricking cash....
Heavy Metal
the first teaser of Titan AE looked as if it was going to be in the style of Heavy Metal and I was fricking GEEKED but it tanked out to be a kiddie movie.
If Pixar were to have the guts to make a R rated Heavy Metal style film they would absolutely clean up.
Do not look at laser with remaining good eye.
On the off-chance that you are being serious, that would be November 5th, since Americans list month before day when writing dates.
I've got a mind like a steel trap - it's got an animal's foot stuck in it.
It's not a movie, but a show geared towards adult audiences. Tripping the Rift is CG featuring adult-oriented content. No actual sex or nudity so far, but lots of adult humour. A few choice quotes from the show would be:
"Just once when I moan 'Oh God...Oh, God!', I really want to mean it."
"Well, you know what they say: You can lead a horse to water, but you can't get over how big its genitals are."
"How'd you like to take a free ride on a girl with four gams and no gag reflex?"
It's coming to a television near you. Watch it.
The plot summary on IMDB sounds more like that indicated by the teaser. The trailer must be showing just scenes either recalling the old days or after the team has gotten their steam again. Maybe both, hence the red suit/blue suit differences?
I'm going to wait until the trailer is in a video format that doesn't require me to run bloated software, before I see it.
My dear Cinderella, you shall go to the ball.
Just a note: Shrek wasn't pixar. It was Dreamworks (I think).

I have no idea why they're recycling soundtracks. Maybe that's a starting trend...
This is a very common practice. Music soundtracks are one of the last things done in movie post-production. (You need a near-final cut of the film before you can score it.) Trailers, which come out months in advance, will use other appropriate music as place holders until then.
Here is a direct link to the large trailer. Just right click, save as.
I don't have itunes so I couldn't get the fullscreen version, someone wanna post that (if it's even possible - fairplay maybe)?
Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur
... and practically every third trailer ever made uses either Carmina Burana or the Stargate theme. :)
Al Qaeda has ninjas!
Oops, that was the old one, the new one is here.
Uhm...Miyazaki-san himself has said that he wrote Spirited Away for 12-year-old girls. You're confusing the cultural disconnect with audience. Granted, Japanese animated films in general tend to have a higher degree of maturity than American ones do...but that doesn't mean they're for an older audience.
And even if that weren't the case, Miyazaki has made quite a few movies "written for kids" himself. For instance, look at My Neighbor Totoro or Panda, Go Panda. Enjoyable by adults (just as Pixar's films are), but clearly aimed right squarely at the little kid market.

I was pleasantly surprised to hear "On Her Majesty's Secret Service" from decksanddrumsandrockandroll, playing in the background of the trailer. This album also has "Take California," used in an iPod commercial, "History Repeating," used in "Something About Mary," and "Spybreak," used of course in the lobby shooting spree of "The Matrix."
Can't you see that everyone is buying station wagons?

Information wants to be anthropomorphized.
Stop renting "Hentai" anime from the pr0n section of your local video store, and watch "Millennium Actress" Follow that up with Grave of the Fireflies and maybe even Osamu Tezuka's Metropolis.
Then come back and tell us what a wasteland of juvenile titilation the Japanese anime landscape is. Until then, pipe down and recognize that you have no idea what you are talking about.

That's just standard industry practice (q. 4). By the time an early trailer like this one needs to be ready, the soundtrack's still probably being _composed_. Even "coming next week" trailers often use music that has nothing to do with the actual film. (How many times have you heard the "Carmina Burana" during a trailer?)
Quicktime isn't a video format. It's just a container for various codecs. The Incredibles trailer is using a Sorenson video codec and a QDesign audio codec.
Pixar was never a part of Disney -- Disney just had an agreement to distribute the pictures and take half the profits.
From their recent annual report:
It has a unique status, that it is specifically named in UK law, and has a perpetual copyright.
As for Walt, a recent documentary I saw painted him in a very different light to the "uncle Walt" image that was created.
Point is Toy Story III is 0wn3D by Disney, and unless Pixar make it without Buzz, Woody and anybody appeared in the first episode, Disney can, and will, go it alone.
