Looks like only 2.5 hours left until a possible announcement is made. :)

What happened?

EDIT: Oh, I just saw the article on the News Page.

But how do we know it's official?

Disney and Pixar are now one. John Lassetter and Ed Catmull will run WDFA.

I saw that. And I edited my last post.

I'm not so sure about this...

Don't worry about it. It's my fault.

In any case, does this mean that projects like "Rapunzel" are going to be flushed down the toilet now?

This sends shivers up my spine. Very good news.

Again, I can't be sure.

I like seeing several hands behind the wheel of animation. I worry that this gives Pixar too much control.

I don't think it'll play out that way though.

I get this really good feeling from this deal. As if everyone behind it has only one thing in mind: getting Disney back on track. And with Lasseter in charge, how can this go wrong? If they ditch the DTV's I'd be even more happy.
