Now this one sounds fairly interesting, would like to hear more about it in the future.

I dunno, pretty sure this one is live action, not what I'm interested in Pixar for. Might be interesting, but I'll have to wait for a trailer for sure here.

I'm willing to give Pixar a chance on most anything, until they let me down too many times. Heh.

It should be fascinating to see how Brad Bird's mix of masterful character development and razor-sharp dialogue will translate to Pixar's first live-action effort.
The premise seems to be tinged with intrigue and mystery, just certain parts in The Incredibles(the kidnapped heroes murdered by Syndrome) and Ratatouille(Linguini's family ancestry).

Yeah, this is one of those ones I am really looking forward to. And CGI or not really doesn't matter to me.
I thought it was interesting in one of the Stanton audio interviews MidgardDragon posted, Stanton mentioned that he's learned not to worry too much about how your film will get made, what medium, what distributor, etc. "Just write a good story," he said. I'm glad Pixar encourages that and doesn't stifle their directors by telling them, "No, it's gotta be CGI with our software and our people, blah, blah."

Could be. Personally, I have no problem with that because it's Pixar. They've earned my trust and it'll take a lot to break it. Again, Catmull is saying is that Pixar will be providing some "support" for the film. That is really loosy-goosey. It could mean that Brad Bird himself is the only contribution Pixar makes. When it comes out, it may have only Pixar exec names on it and no Pixar artists at all. Maybe we'll have to redefine what we call a "Pixar film" afterwards. Again, I have no problem with it as long as whatever they end up with is a great film. If we see some degradation of the brand name, then I'd be a bit concerned.

As far as I'm concerned, Brad Bird has proven himself without Pixar backing him up via The Iron Giant, but I'm not sure if he can pull off the same given the restraints imposed by reality in live-action.

But remember from a directing point of view, Pixar doesn't treat them differently. That's part of their philosophy. WALL-E was directed as if it were a live-action film. Of course it wasn't filmed as a live-action, but again, part of the "Pixar magic" is that they don't view animation as something separate from film.
I definitely see the point about Brad Bird though. This will be a good test to see if he is an "animator" or a "director".
