This may be something that not everyone can see, but study the movement in the characters. Pixar may make amazing rendered models, but watch the actual animations themselves. Perfection.

I don't believe they are quite "folded back into Disney". I think Disney just does the distribution\promotion but doesn't do anything with the production.

While Disney has bought Pixar I really doubt they will mess with them much given the bombs Disney's in house animation arm has been dropping for the last decade. John Lasseter has been given major power to oversee the animation efforts at Disney and is now only answerable to Bob Iger.

Why ya guys watching it in 720? I know this is a geeky forum, you have the hardware, watch it in 1080! I am, and it's beautiful. =)

I use quicktime alternative

Secondly, my monitor is limited to 1400 x 900, doesn't make sense to download 1080.

Watched it on me TV and it looked pretty sweet. I still have to watch Monsters Inc and Finding Nemo though >_>.

Psst, if you use QTA, it will let you download the movie. It's about 409MB for 9 minutes, which seems a bit large compared to the 720p 25 minute episode of One Piece that I downloaded right before it that was only 270MB...

I just saw the sneak preview tonight and it was a great film. Not the best Disney/Pixar film but it's still really good. I'd like to see the quality in Digital projection
