This movie is going to make tons of $$$$$

I can see this as becoming the highest grossing Pixar film to date. Looks great.

Pixar does some amazing stuff, even though it is targeted more towards the younger audience.

Will take the grandkids to this one. With grandchildren you get to see all the animated movies and no one can say anything.

Yeah, me too, though I'm at the age when I'm too old to go to see Disney films myself, but too young to be going with younger children. I'l have to go to a late showing of this and hope I don't see anyone I recognise...

I've seen all the Pixar films by myself, though I did miss Cars. Pixar movies are not childrens movies. The real marketing is made to the adults who bring the children just as Disney theme parks have less to do with children than capturing the child in the adult. Pixar has been so successful because they bring more than the child to the theater.

Re: This movie is going to make tons of $$$$$

I think the comedy in Pixar movies captures an adult mind, more so than say, just your average Disney movies. Bug's life is still one of my favorites.

Re: This movie is going to make tons of $$$$$

I find the vast majority of cartoons throughout history to be that way. Think about the humor in scooby doo and rocky & bullwinkle. Even old cartoons catered to adults. Kids just like the bright colors and funny characters.

Saw that commercial during the super bowl and we were all laughing at my uncle since the robot looks like him. I must admit the website is really well made.

Re: This movie is going to make tons of $$$$$

I really like Pixar in that they add a lot of adult commedy even to a sexual extent and keep the movies censored enough that it's still great for kids. to say they're targetted to younger audiences i think is silly, Pixar caters to all audiences

Re: This movie is going to make tons of $$$$$

This looks great! I can't wait. I went to see Finding Nemo on opening day, and I ended up being the ONLY guy in a massive theater without children of my own. I thought, oh boy, with this many kids its gonna be mayhem. Nope. I was wrong. I have never seen a group of 300+ kids be so quiet and statue-like in my life. Pixar is magical like that. Those children were absolutely riveted. What was funny is that the adults seemed to laugh more than the children. Probably understood more of the underlying humor that pixar so subtly injects into their films.

Thanks for sharing the link for Wall-E!
