It’s not Pixar, it’s Disney.
Pixar got its animation start when John Lasseter got fired from Disney for promoting CG animation over the traditional hand-drawn animation. He moved over to the Lucasfilm CG studio, which was later renamed “Pixar.”
Through Pixar (after Steve Jobs bought it from George Lucas), Lasseter and his team proceeded to not only revolutionize CG animation, but to create incredible unique stories with it. They were seen as a real competitor to Disney for a while. They only started making sequels when they started collaborating with Disney.
Eventually, Disney realized the money to be made from CG animation, so they bought out Pixar. Now it’s a Disney product and their ideas are bankrupt once again. We don’t get original stories anymore, just a bunch of unnecessary sequels and garbage films that were probably written by AI.
