For two days, John Lasseter allowed reporter John Horn of The Los Angeles Times to follow him as he performed his daily duties at Pixar. Noticed by Route 66 News, Topix.net accounts what happened during those few days. The events recalled include Lasseter’s inspecting Mattel’s Cars toy line, debating with co-supervising animator Doug Sweetland about a character’s thoughts in a two-second shot, directing John Ratzenberger with a new line of dialogue, and explaining an abandoned Cars storyline.
