Never in the history of cinema has a medium entertained an audience. It's what you do with the medium.

When you make these films, they become like your children. But at a certain point, they don’t belong to you anymore; they belong to the world.

You cannot base a whole movie on just the imagery alone. It has to be the story and the characters.

If you're sitting in your minivan, playing your computer animated films for your children in the back seat, is it the animation that's entertaining you as you drive and listen? No, it's the storytelling. That's why we put so much importance on story. No amount of great animation will save a bad story.
