It was officially announced this week that, after years of disagreement and threats to pack up their computers for a better home, endlessly innovative (and impossibly lucrative) animation studio Pixar were acquired/retained by Disney for an immense amount of cash. Some people seem concerned that Pixar’s loose approach will get corporately homogenized by Disney’s notoriously … Continue reading
