I'm the biggest fan of animation. I love the history of animation, I know it well.

You make a movie to entertain audiences. That's why you make a movie. The product sales is because people love the characters, and to me, that is a testament to how our movie has become so ingrained in family's homes all around the world and that's why I make movies.

'Bambi' is an amazing film, and when you watch it today, it's just as beautiful. It's timeless. It's just as beautiful today as it was back then.

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.

I do what I do because of Walt Disney - his films and his theme park and his characters and his joy in entertaining.

My mother was a high school arts teacher, so I was always surrounded by the arts

One of the fun things about play is making up stories.
