Could you do Nintendo? Their history is a little crazy, as they’re over 100 years old!
Watch Scott the Woz’s video on the topic! It’s great!
IKR. I was waiting for this for a LONG time.
Id love to see him cover Nintendo. Such a wild history
Same here.
hate to be that person but *they're
When my son was little, I watched a lot of truly awful movies with him but Pixar's were always a complete delight for both of us. The montage of Carl and Ellie aging together in Up is one of my all time favorite movie scenes. I was in a puddle of tears by the end of it.
Fun fact: In the 'Cars' franchise, Lightning McQueen's number is a reference to the year of Pixar's first release ('95, for "Toy Story").
I never knew that XD
Mike Kaltman in the storyboards it showed '57 which references John's Birth year.
And 86 on Chick Hick’s references to the studio’s founding year.
I generally thought this was common knowledge not a fun fact. Dang it I’m a Pixar nerd aren’t I?
I didn't know that!
Pixar is one of the studios that have retained quality control, despite Disney buying them out. They nearly broke up with Disney because they didn’t like the way Disney wanted low budget sequels out of their films!
They mostly do sequels now though, and they're hit-or-miss. Mostly miss.
Lmao they can't just break up with Disney when they're owned by them
@@mawlinzebra Sure they can. Everyone could quit and then form a new company with a different name. It would still be all the same people just under a different name. Also it's possible that despite being owned by Disney that the company's ownership comes with caveats that gives Pixar leverage in terms of what they can force Disney to do. And of course, there's the simple fact that Pixar is popular and people like them and if they raise a stink and cause Disney bad publicity it'll cost Disney money, and to avoid that Disney may be willing to bend a little for them.
@waisodim666 I’m talking about prior to the merger, in 2004 Pixar wanted to stop making films for Disney, if they made sequels of Pixar films without their permission. John Lasseter and Steve Jobs almost didn’t sell Pixar to Disney, had it not been for Disney mismanaging the animation studio.
@@Shenaldrac you mean Dream Works?
_"A hallmark of a healthy creative culture is that its people feel free to share ideas, opinions, and criticism. Lack of candor, if unchecked, ultimately leads to dysfunctional environment."_
*~ Pixar*
Ed Catmull's leading role in the wage fixing scandal and Lasseter's "hugs" make me wonder if the advice can truly work.
As someone who works for a company culture mentor, I can say that is utterly and completely true.
Blackpilled Saint You mean the “opinion” that some people shouldn’t have rights.
Eric Lewis liberals are always trying to take peoples rights away. Especially the right to life as shown by abortion and Euthanasia.
Eric Lewis the only ones who believe some people should not have actual real rights are liberals. A real right is something like freedom of religion or freedom of opinion. Disagreeing with liberal agendas such as homosexual behaviour is not taking anyone’s right away. Even not allowing abortion is not taking anyone’s rights away. Since abortion is murder and murder is not a right. Even homosexual marriage is not a right. Just like incest or polygamy marriage is not a right. People need to learn the meaning of an actual right. Rights are God given and are productive for a healthy/godly society. Not based one what the state or liberals think which is usually destructive and selfish.
WALL-E is my favorite Pixar movie, it's underrated. I like Up too but the music always make me cry
WALL-E is, forever, my favorite animated feature film of all time. There’s no CGI animated feature films to be as good but WALL-E.
People really hate CARS because it focused more on merchandise. But for me, I don't care about it. It's one of my favorite Pixar films next to Toy Story. The movie isn't about cars, but the lesson is about aiming high and there's more something in life than fortune.
Ratatouille gets no love but it's amazing
WALL-E is my favorite too
Mr. Friendship word cars 1 my favorite Pixar film. That and ratatouille
There's no substitute for QUALITY. Most studios forget this.
Cough *Illumination*
Are you telling me that toilet humor isn't an acceptable substitute for quality? How can this be?!
Bob Cpeytonseven I was literally about to comment this word for word
What studios don't forget is that they dont need quality to appeal to the lowest common denominator
Yea like EA sports 🤦🏽♂️
The original cars is probably one of my favorites. I'm a major Gearhead so I enjoy the little attention to details to the car community and the story of Route 66.
Considering that movie got me into cars, it’s probably my favorite, along with Wall-E. But as a movie, cars is good, sure, but not amazing.
@@bandombeviews6035 true, I never said it was the greatest of all time lol but I always have a soft spot for any car related movies so they're always ranked higher in my book haha. Wall-E is a great choice 👍🏻
I love Doc Hudson. Even his introduction was gold.
It also helps to have John Ratzenberger (or "Cliffie" from Cheers) on board. He has voiced every Pixar film to date - it is said that he is the company's "good luck charm"
I haven't seen this yet. I predict you're gonna bash _Cars 2_ at some point in the video.
Only 25 seconds in. I think that's a new record.

surprisingly no good dinosaur hate. disappointing.
@@cursedmailman3999 at least that movie tried
@@joshuajoe1419 I'd still much rather watch Cars 2 than The Good Dinosaur
Can you imagine if Steve Jobs had let Pixar become an Apple subsidiary...
Making Apple exclusive movies
Oh God no.
@@zeroslashj oh god yes
iTunes
Lol Apple tv Originals!
The thing I find most impressive about Toy Story and Finding Nemo in particular are the strengths of the storytelling. The medium of computer animation could have all too easily been indulged for it's own ends (and probably was at the time, I was just old enough to remember the hype of "virtual reality" 3D graphics being showcased through glorified walking simulators in the early 90s and later this marvellous invention called the Worldwide Web that showcased a whole new language and dimension that everyone was talking about but no one really understood).
I suppose that's what differentiated Pixar from its many contemporaries - that and combining with Disney's marketing might: I remember my cereal boxes on the breakfast table being plastered with Toy Story marketing upon release and every bus stop, store catalogue and mall entrance had some advertisement for it.
I never fully understood Steve Jobs' role in developing Pixar. Thanks for another high quality primer @Company Man.
Inside out has to be one of my favorites!! Just everything about it is perfect! Especially the music. The music fits perfectly with every single scene it's just amazing
Completely agree.
That's my fave too.
I just finished 'the ride of lifetime' by disney's ceo and realized how important pixar was to the success of disney and how broken their relationship was at the beginning
Juan Pablo Telleria is that on disney+?
hope It’s a book released a few months ago, it’s very interesting :)
Where do I sign up to read it?
@@hopeschannel nah its a book
Raise your hand if you already knew Pixar’s story, but watched anyways.
I raised my hand.
Raising hand right away
After reading Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson I'm definitely raising my hand
As someone who graduated in computer graphics foundation story is pivotal to understand early CGI.
**Raises both hands**
My all-time favorite animated movie "The Brave Little Toaster" was the reason Lasseter was fired. He initially wanted to create it with computer generated backgrounds and traditional hand-drawn animation for the characters. After pitching it, Disney thought it would be too expensive, and it was shelved. Later, it was picked up by a team led by Jerry Rees and produced by Hyperion Pictures. Its a fantastic (albeit niche) movie, and is deeply rooted in the history of the animation industry. If you haven't seen it, I'd recommend checking it out!
Such a good movie. Thanks for sharing the story. I had not heard that.
Judaea Kimberly that movie was my childhood and I never realized how important it was to the industry until you mentioned it!
When i think of Pixar, "The Brave Little Toaster" is their earliest movie that comes in my mind
Would love a BLT remake by Pixar.
@@TiberianFiend Will be as souless as Cars 3 and Incredibles 2
This man really ranked Monsters University over Up
The Incredibles over both!
wow 12-15 are way too low.
The good dinosaur over toy story 4
Harry Engel Up is a tearjerker, Monsters Inc is more funny but they’re both great quality
Monsters University does have a nice moral and a slap to reality.
Back in the late 90s and early 2000s, 3D animated films were revolutionary. Now, it seems like there's a lot of criticism towards about half of all 3D animated films that came out within the past year or so.
Because most 3d animated films now are bland, forgettable and don't stand the test of time. Some of Saberspark's videos do a nice job explaining why these companies and films aren't doing so great now.
Pixar is still doing great to me. Dreamworks, Blue Sky and Illumination haven't really been consistent in their quality of animated films. Only a few movies from them are really well made.
And the other studios doing 3d animated films are even worse.
@@Dj.D25 Eh, WDAS has been pretty consistently good over the last decade or so as well. Otherwise, I'd agree.
It would be ironic if in the future, they make a video called "The decline of Company Man... What happened?"
Ran outta companies
Company Man : Behind The Blow
The Fall of Company Man: What Happened?
Company Man is Back?
Hello, I'm Generic Drama Channel Who Has Avatar Who Crosses His Arms. Today we're talking about... Company Man. Yep that's right, good old Company Man is back in the news again.
Pixar is better than Disney:
Change my mind.
Then? O_o?
Is this a woooosh bait?
Pixar Is Better Than Dinsey. No Minds Need To Br Changed
Disney made Tron Legacy..... And Disney made the Micky mouse and gang cartoons. So yeah Pixar is better.
Heck, one time I asked my mom what here favorite animated Disney movie of the 2000’s to 2010’s... they were all Pixar films.
They're essentially the same entity at this point. I don't really need to differentiate, but there are examples of Disney making better films than Pixar. I would consider Moana to be better than the mean average of Pixar films, for instance. It's not the top, but it's better than half of them.
there’s actually a pixar documentary on this exact subject, you can find it on disney+. both videos cover the same subjects but they’re both still interesting
And people don't respect Steve Jobs enough. The reason, because not all know all these stories.
People keep linking him to Apple but I am just hear telling them about Pixar and they don’t even care
@@calebkuti7897 in his first speech when he returned to Apple he said "hello my name is Steve Jobs and I'm the CEO of Pixar".
Both companies are where they are today because of Steve Jobs. I think it’s safe to say he was a legend
I was a teenager when Pixar released Toy Story and really have never kept up with the films. I just enjoy Company man's videos.
A teen huh? Kinda refreshing not to hear somebody who says “I GREW UP WITH THIS”
Is that.... Uganda Knuckles as your profile pic?
Sorry, man
You had me at ‘fantastic.’ That deserves a major like!
I can't watch the beginning of Up without crying
No one can, it's impossible.
I know this feeling
@@anroux I didn't. It's like Coco, where you have to relate to it to truly understand. It's sad, sure, but it didn't me as hard as it did others. Both Up and Coco were really boring aside from those emotional scenes though.
@@Damianator77 K.
@@anroux K.
I'd recommend the book Creativity Inc. to anyone that is interested in the history of Pixar or even just for anyone looking for a fantastic read
For more details, I recommend the book "Creativity Inc."
Company man you’re the bestest!
We love you Company Man!!
I recommended ready the book "curious" it talks about this story
Company man: I was 4 when Toy Story came out
Everyone watching: (doing math in head)
Damn cant believe he's almost 12 years old!
He was born in “91” probably in Toledo.
32
28/29
Born in Kansas
Hmm let’s just keep track of all his details and we’ll have a dossier in no time
Hes was born in 1990 he said in history of nickelodeon
"A Bug's Life" is still my favorite Pixar movie, regardless of how much they may have improved over the years. But that's just me. 🤷♀️
"That was nothing compared to the twig of '93."
Tow mater is a national treasure
ratatouille up Wall-E incredible
PIXAR emphasized STORY over content. Its something that was often forgotten at Disney and with Katzenberger. There were too much drama and politics getting in the way of making a good story/movie.
I love great animation. And with Pixar, we had the perfect demolition derby of art, technology, and business. I mean that seriously, in light of what they brought into the world and how they transformed a cinematic art form and industry from head to toe.
Thank you Steve Jobs for Pixar.

@@Manuel-ek2cf no u
Nah that was Jeff Bezos that made Pixar
@@angryspongebob5657 ur wrong buddy, it was actually elon musk
Toy Story 3 is my favorite. It came out when I was in college and that’s where Andy goes to college.
This video is so good, very insightful. This is what I have been waiting for, I love multi-media companies and their stories of how they came to be. Keep up the great work!
Favorite Pixar Movie :
Wall-e
Do one about Bic the company that makes pens, led pencils, lighters, and etc
I love the Incredibles. Say what you want about Steve Jobs, the man had an eye for the future.
I think most will agree that Pixar is hands down one of the greatest animation studios to ever exist. Even their worst movies are still miles ahead in terms of quality when compared to others. My favorite movie from them has to be toy story, although monsters inc and nemo are close seconds
Wall-E is my favorite. Such a cute memorable film.
Jobs always was a pretty good visionary! I always admire people who put their own money in a company that is bleeding money because they just know it will end up working out in the end.
haha imagine if he animated the whole thing from a pixar characters view
That would be crazy but no doubt it would look good if not amazing. Not a big fan of mordern animations don't hate it but sometimes it feels out of place.
Wall-E, Up and Inside Out are all incredible. Seems like they are just getting better...
Growing up with monsters Inc, always blew my mind. A VHS, with such high quality animation was just so cool to me. It still is, just watched it on VHS and again am blown away by the quality they nailed back then.
Just here for my usual request... How Target failed in Canada and/or other failed international expansions 😃
Luke Rinderknecht target got saved here in the US barely
ua-cam.com/video/ohXYR69UhxI/v-deo.html, best video right now about it
@@dolphinsandislanders6291 thank you. I've seen that video but imo he doesn't really do any analysis or provide real insight, just kinda says it wasn't Target's fault and that "Canada is a terrible market for retail". I don't buy this, and i don't think Loblaw's, Walmart, Costco or Canadian Tire would either.
There's quite a bit more to the story; this is a really good article which paints a bigger picture of some of the errs internally: www.canadianbusiness.com/the-last-days-of-target-canada/
Luke Rinderknecht that’s why I said right now
Dolphins and Islanders was just gonna say that 😂
I'd prefer Cars 2 over The Good Dinosaur, Brave, or those two that are coming out this year
I got to say you may not get a lot of views like these big you tubers but I actually look forward to watching your videos more than anyone else that I'm subscribe to. Keep doing what you’re doing and thank you for educating me every time that I watch one of your videos!!!! Side note my favorite video is the one on Kmart because our Kmart is closing in February and I watched it back when you first made the video and I appreciate the background on why everything was happening and now I can educate others as I’m walking through Kmart and I actually send them to your video when they’re wondering why all this is happening.
Oh I remember when Pixar announced a new movie, it was a huge event every year, now for some reason their movies don't have the same effect in my opinion (except for Coco and Inside Out).
The one we've all been waiting for!!
Can you do a video on the Microsoft zune
Glad you picked up on the Star Trek animation - most people don't know that's one of the earliest works of Pixar.
I love your channel. Please don’t stop!
Finding nemo is adorable galore and cutest thing ever at the time, and I never thought it can be out cuted. Pixar came close with inside out then managed to succeed with finding dory.
Recomend all of them but cars 2 what about the good dinosaur
Awesome video and love that you included the beginning of Pixar happening at NYIT. I graduated from there myself and never heard much about that detail until recently.
This brings a tear to my eye. It really shows that you can not give up on your vision. Excellent video.
I'm happy to be the only person who likes Cars 2. I get all the DVDs and BluRays.
I like it also, but it's not as good as the first
Toy Story 3 is legit the only movie to make me tear up...
Infectedstyles_Chris Toy Story 3 was terrible
Matty Iannielli Your opinion.
Infectedstyles_Chris Yes it’s my opinion. Toy Story 3 was ok but it broke my heart because Andy gave up his childhood and it broke the promise that no toy gets left behind. Toy Story 4 was better than Toy Story 3 in my opinion.
@@mattyiannielli2067 I mean he was going to college
Really appreciate the effort you put in these videos
You are literally my new favorite channel on youtube. I love everything you put out. So thorough, insightful and funny. Thank you for everything. I see you have a patreon but it's not bringing in anything close to what you deserve. If you ever wanna spitball different monetization ideas, let me know. Would love to help in anyway I can.
Never been this early! Go Company Man!
I'm a huge Pixar fan, I've also seen every movie. I disagree with you about Cars 2 though. It's an awesome movie, just not really similar at all to the first one.
Cars 2 makes for good fire wood.
Cars 2 at least had a good story, Cars 3 was just the first one but boring.
All the Pixar sequels suck
@@sarcasticallyyours Don't you dare diss the 2nd and 3rd Toy Story.
@@sarcasticallyyours Yeah, they try too much to be better than the first one, and fail spectacularly... Except Toy Story 2-4, they are perfect in every single way
Pixar is hands down The Greatest Animation Studio Of All Time.
I remember my first exposure to computer animation. The year was 1985, and saw the debut of Dire Straits music video "Money For Nothing". And in 1985, that blocky animation was considered revolutionary and floored EVERYONE.
I like how unique your list is. You don't see a lot of that usually, especially in the animation circles. Here's mine.
21) The Good Dinosaur (I almost fell asleep lol)
20) The Incredibles 2 (Saw a chunk of it and turned it off. Wasn't as good as #1)
19) Brave (It was okay, nothing special)
18) Toy Story 4 (decent but felt tacked on to the trilogy, story was weak)
17) The Incredibles (It's really good but not my favorite)
16) Cars 2 (I like this more than other people do, a decent spy flick)
15) Inside Out (Ending was a bit weak to me but I loved most of it)
14) Coco (This was such a sweet movie)
13) Up (I really love this movie but like Incredibles, not my favorite)
12) Monsters Inc. (Pete Doctor is a God)
11) Monsters University (I love the message of this one, it's realistic)
10) Cars (Really fun and meaningful, don't get the hate)
9) Finding Dory (Chillingly amazing, especially the last scene. Beautiful)
8) Cars 3 (Amazing send off to Cars. Good commentary on new generation)
7) A Bug's Life (A true animated epic. Classic.)
6) Wall-E (Masterpiece of a film. Truly inspiring)
5) Toy Story 3 (Amazing and utterly jaw dropping. It hits deep)
4) Toy Story 2 (The screenplay is pure genius. It's so fucking funny and emotional simultaneously)
3) Finding Nemo (One of the best animated stories ever told. Emotionally swelling epic)
2) Ratatouille (Masterpiece about art and criticism. Beautiful.)
1) Toy Story (The best animated film ever made. 80 minutes of perfection and genius writing)
The good dinosaur is good
@@LegendOnYT1 I didn't like it personally.
Ok I respect your opinion
I appreciate the time and research you put into making these videos! Here’s a big ol kiss 💋
Jay Tee Kay Mwah 💋
Gaaaayyy
Rex 😘 I added some tongue to that one ;)
We might have never been able to see Toy Story 2 because it was accidentally deleted. Thankfully one on the animator was working from home and had the raw file saving the film.
I wouldn't be the man I am today
A Bugs Life is still my favorite Pixar movie. I have it on Blu Ray and still enjoy it very frequently.
Toy story was out a day before I was born lol
You know what's a fantastic story? Pontiac.
Yes! Inside Out is massively underrated. It is an amazing piece of cinema!
11:37 The Rise and Falls Of Funko...
Hmmm Cars and Monsters Inc above Toy Story 2 and The Incredibles 'eh? Was your list based on one time viewing or repeat viewing experience?
Repeat viewing for almost all of them. Everything you just mentioned I've seen at least 2 or 3 times. Toy Story 2 I used to watch on repeat when I was younger.
My all-time favorite Pixar movie? Monsters, Inc.
I love your channel. So well done.
i'll have you know that chicken little and meet the robinsons are two of the most underrated Disney movies [that i know].
Hey! Cars 2 was decent... I grew up watching it..
Pixar had some great films! I loved watching them all with my sons! I have a Finding Nemo sleeve, it's not finished but it was for my sons to remember the difficult times in the beginning. Their mom left then died, but we did find our "Dory"! Anyway it's kinda fun to get judged by old ladies for having tattoos and then they see no evil or skulls, only Nemo and Bruce and they are confused. Then they feel really bad once you explain the reasons behind your tattoos. But anyways Pixar is rad!
Those early computer works were Amiga 1000's (aka Video Toasters in disguise) at the time... If you're familiar with a little Sci Fi show called Babylon 5, they also used Video Toasters, and that was the first show at the time to use a completely computer generated character with live actors for tv and 3D space scenes for the show......
I don't know how I found this channel. I don't know who the narrator is. I imagine it's some kid doing a college research project and did an over the top presentation. Really quality and interesting stuff especially as I don't really care about any of the companies he talks about. Oddly one of my favorite channels.
Toy story has got to be it. Classic. Now my kids love it too. This is a story i would love to see dramatized in a movie one day
Cleetus Vonbehren The story behind Toy Story
Well do you
I wish computer generated image animation isn’t a considered a ‘cartoon.’
Because, computer animation is a lot more different than traditional (Or hand drawn) animation where it shows realism.
see love death and robots on netflix. youre welcome.
Fine work, as always. Two Thumbs Up!
Appreciate it.
I love these video keep it up
ummm the good dinosaur, and monsters university are among cars 2
DuzMachines monster university was decent in my opinion, not as good as monsters inc but not as bad as cars 2
@@joshuajoe1419 Monsters University is worse than Cars 2. Cars 2, at least, provided mindless entertainment.
In Monster U's defense, I will give it the credit that it deserves. It has one of the best scenes across the entire board. Mike puts everyone to shame by pulling off the greatest scare that the University has ever seen.
@@JeanetteIsabelle I have to agree with you. Cars 2 was no masterpiece, but it was fun to watch. Monsters University was just bad. I saw it once shortly after it came out on DVD, and I've never seen it again since.
Despite Cars 2, Pixar has an amazing track record. The perfect combination of state-of-the-art technology and solid storytelling. Except Cars 2.
ALL of the cars movies are garbage.
Cars was a mistake
Yep. Inside Out is definitely my #1 fav
Oh hell yes you made this video just for me, I watch all your vids and have a tattoo of the Luxo Lamp 😂
Steve Jobs was literally a GOD who saved Pixar and created our childhoods and movies that we can STILL find interest in today.
I'm early in the comments for ONCE, please show me love people
Congrats me too brother
Aeugh
Nobody cares if your early
As always class act Mike!
Wall-E. Hands down the best. The first act being essentially a silent film, followed by a great build up to a supremely satisfying end. The animation is also top notch. Honorable mentions definitely go to The Incredibles, Inside Out and Coco, but pretty much every Pixar movie has been spectacular with the exception of The Good Dinosaur and Cars 2. Let's not forget that since John Lasseter took over Disney's animation we've seen the likes of Tangled, Frozen, and Moana, which all make my best all time list.
My 10 Favorite Pixar movies:
1. Inside Out
2. WALL-E
3. The Incredibles
4. Toy Story 2
5. Finding Nemo
6. Toy Story 3
7. Coco
8. Toy Story
9. UP
10. Bug Life

- Buzz Lightyear
I love this story, and theres so much more to it as well. Like the drama between disney and pixar after the 5 movie deal over toy story 2 being a sequel and not couting. They almost spill ways with disney owning all the films and was going to make lower budget sequels not made by pixar. Then disney and pixar talked and then was bought.
Ace the Dolphin Guy weren’t there a few actually made by another company? I think Planes wasn’t made by Pixar
Anna Kathryn Hodgman-Burns yep, planes was not pixar, spin off made by disney
I oddly remember Tubby the Tubba. It was shown in Music class when I was in Kindergarten.
My favorite Pixar film is Ratatouille. Remember seeing it in theaters as a kid with my grandparents. Feels like an indie films almost, also it has a real powerful core
Up makes my wife cry so much that she’s only seen it twice. She doesn’t like to be put through those emotions often. No other Pixar movie has achieved such an emotional impact on anyone that I’ve ever seen. Simply, a masterpiece ❤️
Andre and Wally B was not animated using a Pixar animation computer, it was animated using a Cray X-MP/48 supercomputer and a group of 10 DEC VAX/11-750 computers. At that time the Cray would have been used at somewhere like NASA Ames Research center for modeling stuff for the space shuttle, and a single VAX-11/750 would be used at a company like TRW for a team of say 10 researchers doing material sciences or electrical engineering calculations. Cray lent them the use of the X-MP/48 and MIT lent them the use of the 1- VAX/11-750's.
I remember reading a book all about Pixar- I think it was The Pixar Touch (not sure, the cover was all white and it the ending chapter mentioned about how Katzenberg's contributions was 'edited' out the publicity materials after his stunt with antz) and always wanted an update on this animation company that did what other films couldn't- make me love the movies that got me crying
