All right. Well, welcome everyone to our first Pixar roundtable. Basically, I am joined with a few fellow Pixar Weekly to your fans. And we're just going to talk Pixar with you

guys tonight. We're going to talk everything from history to movies, to films, to things that we may

think the future may hold for Pixar and everything in between. So just so you know, we may have

some spoilers. So if there's any Pixar films that you haven't seen just yet and you're trying to remain

spoiler-free, we will be talking about some movies later.

So just kind of beware.

We will put a little spoiler alert before we get to that movie section, though.

So how we're going to do this is I am joined tonight by Karina Liberty, also Jill, Lee, and Tara. And so each of them are going to take

ownership and talk about a certain aspect of this. So we're going to do kind of a roundtable,

just like we did for Star Wars and then also most recently Marvel. So to kind of warm everybody up

and to kind of introduce the cast that we have with us this evening, we're going to talk

about our Pixar story.

And basically, that's just going to be a brief explanation about what Pixar means to us.

I can go first.

Pixar, honestly, this is going to be so brief, you're going to laugh at me.

But Pixar to me, when I think of Pixar, is it just every movie I

watch from that studio is like a hug. It's like a hug to my heart. They do such a great job of

really developing the characters and really making you fall for them. Sometimes even in like the first

10 minutes of the film, up, I'm looking at you. You pulled at my heartstrings there but yeah it's just like it's just like a hug to my heart I just can't help but feel wonderful and smile when I watch them so let's move Lee let's have you talk about what your Pixar story is I think I like Pixar because it's about blog people or toys or whatever they are,

and they always manage to overcome their problems and their issues, whatever's going on,

to do something positive.

It's the same reason I like Disney that in general, what Disney does is offer hope that things can be like they should be as opposed to, you know, how things are.
