- arbitrage 4y agoThat's a very subjective statement. It's difficult to find evidence for, let alone prove.

Pixar used to work on one movie at a time, and each one that came out was technologically ground breaking[1], a huge media event, and an instant classic beloved by adults and children. Now days you have https://www.imdb.com/list/ls020738923/ https://www.imdb.com/list/ls020738923/ Some of their movies are good, some are great, some aren't good, but now days they are willing to make cash grab sequels.

- InTheArena 4y agoI would argue that this is more about the departure / firing of John Lasseter then a side effect of Disney. Lasseter's mandate was to rescue Disney animation, and while Pixar went down a bit, it very clearly re-emerged for a while. Where Disney is now is more about destroying the parks as cultural touchstones in the USA.
