You’ve got a friend in us. This week, ahead of Toy Story 4, we’re putting up thirty questions about the animation juggernaut, Pixar. From their humble beginnings in the 1980’s to one of the highest grossing studios in the world, Pixar has come a long way. Test your skills with Pixar Trivia.
Speaking of Toy Story 4, if you’re planning on going this weekend, check out the BOGO on tickets from Alamo Drafthouse (Brian’s personal favorite place for going to the movies).
After you’re done enjoying Pixar Trivia, please take a moment to subscribe, review, and rate the podcast. We need your help to spread the word and share the show with others.
You can also follow us on all sorts of social media platforms. You can find Dorky Geeky Nerdy on Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit.
Book of the Week
Creativity, Inc.: Overcoming the Unseen Forces That Stand in the Way of True Inspiration
Creativity, Inc. is a manual for anyone who strives for originality and the first-ever, all-access trip into the nerve center of Pixar Animation—into the meetings, postmortems, and “Braintrust” sessions where some of the most successful films in history are made. It is, at heart, a book about creativity—but it is also, as Pixar co-founder and president Ed Catmull writes, “an expression of the ideas that I believe make the best in us possible.”
I’m not usually into “self-help” or “management” books, but this one was recommended to me and I recommend it to others. If you work with creative types (or even just technical folks), this is a great resource for getting the most out of yourself and your team. Read it today.
By purchasing this or other books of the week, you support the podcast and keep it going. And we’ve got a friend in you, right? I would hope so. Because we want this show to go to infinity and beyond.
OMG! I love pixar movies! Thanks for this.
