Pixar's Newt [spoilers inside]

I just have to quote one thing my friend said; “People are going to be teasing about the title of the film.” :laughing:

For those who don’t get it, try punning it (the title) and… broaden your imagination… just a little. ;-p

Lizardgirl - [spoil]lol! How do you know that it’s ‘male mating dance’? :open_mouth: :smiling_imp: [/spoil]

Aw, I tried. :frowning: More hints please…

Killer123- [spoil]The phrase ‘mesmerises female’ is one of the captions on the thing posted at the top of this thread. :laughing: The text is quite small, but if you look closely, you can see it.[/spoil]

I don’t think we need to worry too much. Pixar is probably going to hire every newt specialist in the country to make sure it’s as scientifically correct as possible.

I’m actually pretty interested in this one. It’s about time Pixar goes back to their old glory methods; none of those fancy story lines which that seven year old in the front row of the cinema doesn’t understand an inch of.

Hope this turns out to be better.

The coffee machine’s really starting to bug me. What the heck is behind it??!?!!?! Seriously. :angry: Anyone know if that’s some stupid adult joke not yet revealed? :wink: Anyway, I’m really looking forward to this movie. After all, every single movie Pixar has made so far is AWESOME. So this most likely will be too!

I suspect there is a reason why it is not shown. It’s a newt mating dance, and more often than not, I believe, animal mating dances can end in, well, mating.

Anyway, we’ll all just have to wait to find out more, but I still think that that may not be revealed, at least not before the movie.

Hahaha! That picture made me laugh! Seeing those doodles and the end pic with the coffee pot hiding it?? My crazy mind could only imagine what was behind that!

The first time I heard of the plot for Newt I fell in love, I mean it seems so funny yet can be serious romantic and exciting.

I don’t know, guess like most of you here it just seems like the movie is going to be so loveable and fun. I have been keeping track of Newt since I first heard of it, and I will keep up until I will be able to see in the theater! The story is so Pixar and I love it!

Step 7 says: Cartwheel prelude to final poses, mesmerizes female. Step 8 says: Male hops towards final flourish pose to entice female with grandiose posturing.

Does anyone know who the guy presenting this is? Does he work for Pixar?

I thought so too so I checked wikipedia for more info and well the mating process of the newts are more like [spoil]fishes.[/spoil]

Quote from wikipedia (I guess it can be a bit of a spoiler, haha)

[spoil]After courtship rituals of varying complexity, which take place in ponds or slow moving streams, the eggs are fertilised outside the female’s body.[/spoil]

Edited. I combined both of your posts. – Mitch

^Simon-Simon - That’s actually very interesting… The joke is probably that he can never figure out where his dance is supposed to be going… That is probably very annoying for him!

Anyway, this is one of the upcoming PIXAR movies that I am anticipating the most! It does sound, as others have said in so many words, very ‘Pixar-ish’.

Oh, and welcome to the boards!

Thank you C-3PO I’m sure I will enjoy it here! And I agree with you 110%! Newt is the one I’m looking the most forward to out of all the upcoming Pixar-movies! It seems so great and I can’t wait for more info!

Haha yeah C-3PO I think so too, I mean Newt is probably told to do that dance but he’s not sure how and why! Maybe [spoil]the sign that we got to see is given to him to teach him how to do the dance [/spoil] :smiley:

Ok guys found this pic (you might have seen it already), it’s from the blog The Pixar Blog and it was put up sometime last summer, it’s from inside the Pixar Headquarters campus. Just thought it was a fun thing they did :smiley:

That’s a cool sign! :smiley:

This film is really intriguing to me.

And I love amphibians :laughing:

Haha, that’s a sweet sign! I love how into their films the Pixar employees get. :laughing:

I’m excited about this movie. :smiley:
just thinking about how cute it is gonna be makes me smile. :smiley:

Join the club Laceyfan. And welcome to PIxar Planet. I am pretty excited to see Newt as well.

Hey guys, hope you guys are all good and enjoying the return of springtime! At least spring has arrived here in Sweden, shocker I now, usually it’s like minus in degrees around these times!

Anyway I got a little newt-curious and have searched around the net trying to get some info, not necessarily on the upcoming Pixar-movie, but the animal all together.

I found this statement which made me wonder a little: [spoil]Adult newts have lizard-like bodies and may be either fully aquatic, living permanently in the water, or semi-aquatic, living terrestrially but returning to the water each year to breed.[/spoil]

I wonder if they will count this in or if they’re just gonna leave them in the lab?

Knowing Pixar’s attention to detail I’m sure that they will include as many newt facts as appropriate. Also I don’t think the film will take place entirely in the lab, I’m hoping to see some nice outside visuals in this.

Yeah, I agree with Halos Nach Tariff on this one- I can imagine that as part of the story, the newts might want to try and escape the lab and get back to their natural semi-aquatic habitat.
