Two months ago, I was invited to Pixar and their headquarters for a preview of Elemental. I wrote a bit about that preview here, giving a taste of what the film is shaping up to be. Today, however, I’m going to continue whetting your appetite for their movie by talking more about the experience of […] More
Welcome back to the Awards Radar Podcast. In each episode, Editor Joey Magidson (that’s me!) will be joined by some of the staff of Awards Radar to talk about the latest in film, television, and entertainment in general. The show will obviously have an awards season slant to it, but we won’t forget about other […] More
Yesterday, the trailer dropped for Pixar’s latest animated offering, Elemental. If you didn’t see it then, definitely check it out here now. However, for the past two days prior, I was on a somewhat secret trio to Pixar Headquarters, to get a more in-depth look at the film. As a bonus, we were also shown […] More
Directed by Peter Sohn, the film will make its way exclusively to movie theatres on June 16. More
For far too long, coming of age stories have been the domain of men and boys, but Pixar’s Turning Red demonstrates how successful a film that centers girlhood, de-stigmatized and unabashedly joyful, can be. We spoke with playwright and screenwriter Julia Cho, who co-wrote the film with director Domee Shi (who Joey recently interviewed here). […] More
Pixar is a very special home for a creative storyteller. The way they’ve cultivated individual voices, while telling acclaimed stories that still manage to make oodles of money? That’s rare. So, it’s always a pleasure to talk to someone who’s on the inside of the company. Last week, I had the opportunity, getting some time […] More
This weekend, Buzz Lightyear returned to the big screen with Pixar’s release of the pseudo origin story Lightyear. With the hook of the film being that this is the movie Andy from Toy Story watched to make him want Buzz in the first place, it feels like something slightly more than just a cash grab. […] More
Buzz Lightyear is obviously not the only reason why the Toy Story franchise is so beloved, but he’s certainly a piece of the puzzle. So, making Lightyear, an origin story for the character (of sorts, as you’ll see), is a bit of a risky proposition. Then again, Disney and Pixar didn’t hesitate to make Toy […] More
For those of you who don’t know, Pixar is my favorite studio. Animation is my favorite medium, and the film that pretty much started my love of film happened to be Toy Story. Oh, I also happen to be the exact same age as Andy. So when I say that I’ve been waiting my entire […] More
There’s a lot of Buzz about Lightyear and with good reason. I was recently given access to screen about 30-minutes of footage from the highly anticipated animated adventure. I have been dying to discuss it and can now finally reveal just how amazing it is. What I saw goes beyond the Toy Story world where […] More
Viewers will take away many things from Turning Red. The new animated feature film from Pixar tells the a story that viewers may feel like is their own with one big furry exception. Thirteen year old Mei Lee (voiced by Rosalie Chiang) is a wonderful daughter, a spirited friend who just happens to turn into a twelve […] More
What if Pixar made Teen Wolf for younger girls? The result is Turning Red, the company’s latest animated event. This is an interesting current period of time for Pixar, as they’ve seemingly fallen short of greatness on a consistent basis, while still putting out incredibly strong animated fare. Of course, being really good instead of […] More
