A supercut of the animation studios illustrious rise to power.

For just over 30 years now, Pixar has been pushing the animation envelope to new, glorious, and mostly infallible heights. The studio has one of the greatest track records of any in the history of the medium, and they seem to have no shortage of ideas for whats next. This year alone will see the release of two new Pixar films, Cars 3, in theaters now, and Coco, a mystery-adventure boasting an entirely Latino cast, which opens in November.

In the latest supercut from Burger Fiction, the evolution of Pixar is traced from its early days in the late 80s making groundbreaking shorts, to its heyday in the 90s making box-office-busting hits, to the present era where it continues to extend the limits of what animation can do, as well as the number of people it can reach. Pixars greatest quality has always been its inclusivity, the way it makes films that can be enjoyed by several different age groups at once, parents included. In fact, it feels safe to say the way Pixar tells stories and the kind of stories they tell has been just as influential as the technology they use to tell them. You cant really have a monopoly on a genre, but if you could, Pixar would own the family film.

So rather round the kids and take a quarter-hours walk through a quarter-century of imagination, innovation, and evolution, the studios and the art forms.
