Two years ago, Pixar was bought by Disney, following often unpleasant negotiations fueled by bad blood between Pixar’s Steve Jobs and Disney chief Michael Eisner. Price writes that as the deal finally was about to be green-lighted, Jobs hauled off with a slap at the company that Mickey Mouse built, saying he felt "sick about Disney doing sequels [to Pixar films], because if you look at the quality of their sequels, like ‘The Lion King 11\/2’ and their ‘Peter Pan’ sequels and stuff, it’s pretty embarrassing."<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

says the article. The article also details how the stress of working on the original Toy Story<\/span> led an animator to forget about his baby in the car. By the sound of this article, it’s going to be a good book. It’s due out in May.<\/p>\n
