D23 Expo: Pixar’s Connection To Brad Bird’s ‘Tomorrowland’

D23 Expo: Pixar’s Connection To Brad Bird’s ‘Tomorrowland’

Director Brad Bird (The Incredibles, Ratatouille) was on hand at the D23 Expo this past weekend as part of the Let The Adventures Begin: Live Action At The Walt Disney Studios presentation. Bird, along with co-writer Damon Lindelof (Lost), presented artifacts in their continued myth building for the 2014 Disney live-action film, Tomorrowland. The mysterious “1952” box, which has been utilized for the last several months to tease the film, was brought out on stage and explored in front of the audience. A few enigmatic items from the Disney studios past were unveiled, a doctored picture of Walt Disney with Amelia Earhart was shown and a vintage copy of Amazing Stories was used as a key for some cryptic message decoding. But by far the most interesting and entertaining portion of the presentation – and the bit that had me most intrigued about the project – was a clip of animation that has ties to Pixar.

The Pixar Perspective on Breaking Into Live-Action

The Pixar Perspective on Breaking Into Live-Action

As unlikely as it may have seemed a few years ago, or even a few months ago if you were stubbornly holding out against the truth, there will be a sequel to the 2003 Pixar classic Finding Nemo, opening in 2015. Of course, more than 30 months from its release, we know very little about Finding Dory, aside from that title, its release date, the involvement of Albert Brooks and—in a more pronounced fashion—Ellen DeGeneres, and little else. But that title can, if nothing else, allow us to assume we have a general notion of what the film will entail: instead of the harried, neurotic Marlin searching the ocean for his son Nemo, he’ll have to do so for the unlikely friend he picked up on that first journey, Dory. These are the facts—at least based on Disney’s recent press release—but those meager crumbs have inspired a great deal of worrisome Internet fervor in the last couple weeks.

  • A new Onward poster was released today! Onward is Pixar’s “suburban fantasy adventure” starring Chris Pratt and Tom Holland. Also, a pair of pants. When the Lightfoot brothers try to bring back their father, who they lost years ago, the magic goes haywire and only half of their father has returned. The story of the film centers on the characters racing against the clock to reunite with their dad. I can already feel the tears!

  • “Our mission with Andy is complete.” That line from Toy Story 3 has stuck with me for almost a decade now. It made me think of all the toys I’ve left behind throughout my life. The Toy Story films have deeply increased my feelings of guilt toward the toys that I stopped playing with or gave away. Still, the message in Toy Story 3 was that your relationship with the toys may change, but the simple act of finding a new home for the toys could give so much meaning to other people’s lives. Now, I refuse to throw away toys - I either keep them for myself, give them to my daughter, or find them a new home. 
I really do feel that these films have changed people’s lives. I have to imagine there are many other people out there who second-guess throwing toys in the trash and instead give them to others who can create happy memories. 
Thanks to Disney for sending these toys my way to help me tell my toy story!

  • “I love you, Giggle McDimples!” - my daughter, reminding me why she’s the cutest. I bought her this Giggle McDimples toy weeks before she had even seen Toy Story 4. Usually, she doesn’t like playing with toys based on characters she’s never seen before. BUT, the second that she saw Giggle, she wouldn’t put her down for hours. I would say there are a few reasons why: 
1) she loved the design of the character and the toy
2) that great personality brought to life by @allymaki.

I’m so glad that I captured this on video. Taking photos is wonderful but always remember to capture some videos of your life, too! There’s something special about moving pictures and audio that transport you back to that memory. If you have a toy story to tell or video to share, post it on your feed and use the hashtag #whatsyourtoystory!
