I mean, frankly, I'm not speaking as a representative of Disney or Pixar, I'm speaking as just myself as a filmmaker: I don't go into anything that often thinking about a sequel.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most people know me at Pixar as the guy that doesn't like to do sequels or very reluctant to do sequels.
At Pixar, we do sequels only when we come up with a great idea, and we always strive to be different than the original.
People will turn their noses up at a sequel or that type of thing, but Pixar really works hard - if they're making a sequel - to make a sequel an original movie, to make it an original story.
To do a sequel is so weird, you don't really think about it.
I didn't really want to do another sequel. I go to those movies, and I just sort of enjoy them like a viewer.
I think a sequel is a waste of money and time. I think movies should illuminate new stories.
I pointedly avoid doing sequels, since for the most part I find that a sequel rarely stands up to the original.
I'm not big on sequels; I've done them, but I like doing little things that have their own timelessness to them, classic type things, and then you go onto something new.
I never actually plan sequels. They demand to be done.
When Pixar calls and says, 'Hey, you wanna be in a Pixar movie?' you don't do a lot of contemplating!
