We are finally getting some clues about Pixar's releases after next summer's Wall-E. In 2009 we will see Up, which is an action adventure story starring an 80-year old man. It will be directed by Pete Doctor, who also did my personal favorite Pixar movie, Monsters, Inc.
In 2010 (are you ready for this?), Toy Story 3 will premier. You may have heard that Disney was in pre-production for this second sequel back when they were negotiating a contract with then-independent Pixar. When Lasseter and company merged with the Mouse, they quickly pulled the plug on the "Buzz is recalled" storyline. Lee Unkrich, who co-directed Toy Story 2 with Lasseter, will be the solo director on this project. I'm usually not a fan of sequels, but considering how much better number two was over the original, I expect Toy Story 3 will not disappoint!
Oh, and we also have a release date for Wall-E: June 27, 2008. That will be one weekend before the Fourth of July holiday weekend.
