The responses to this have been really funny, heheh. If you watch “Notes on a Score”, he strokes his beard when thinking about what decisions to make, lol. Maybe the beard was the secret behind the success of WALL•E!
Actually, I like him better without it. He looks much younger that way. Come to think of it, I rarely prefer facial hair on a guy. Only on certain guys does that work. I’m not saying Andrew looks bad with a beard, cuz he doesn’t, I just think he looks better without it.
Stanton looks better without the beard.
It made him look more skillfully or possibly more genius looking then compared to now.
I believe his clear facial appearance matched well before and during the time he was working on FN for production in Pixar.
The picture of him with his Oscar award, for I’m assuming because of his first masterpiece, looks kind of screwy. When I saw the Academy Awards on television back in 2004, I did not see him look that bad on camera.
With that current image of him below the Oscar one, I had seen more of his ‘stuff’ on him about 1-2 years ago if I remember, in a short video interview on E!. But not sure if it was on there where I saw it.
I really don’t know. I’ll decide later since I became familiar on his face on picture 1 until I’ve seen his face (picture 2) on the teaser trailer of WALL-E.
thedriveintheatre - I can see a resemblance between Andrew Stanton and that character. I think it’s the glasses. And, yep, I think it was all of the long hours on WALL•E that created the beard - the man didn’t even have time to shave!
Well, looks aren’t everything, but he does look way better with a beard, in my opinion. He looks more amiable and laid back, like a tug boat captain or something. Heheh.
