We all love Toy Story, Cars, and Monsters Inc., and virtually everything else that Pixar has made so far, but could you imagine what would happen if any given Marvel superhero stepped into Pixar territory? Fans have been wanting a crossover since Disney aquired Marvel. John Lasseter, co-founder of Pixar and director of Toy Story and cars was asked that very simple question that has been on everyone's minds: Will there be a crossover film between Marvel Studios and Pixar? See what Lasseter had to say below. Information courtesy of Collider.

“Well, I can’t say anything about that because Marvel just got—[they’ve] been a couple years as part of the Disney company, we’ve been six years as part of the Disney company. And at Pixar, we stay focused on making original films. Even our sequels are kind of created internally and we come up with ideas [on our own]. I’m also leading the Walt Disney Animation Studio and all of that. These studios are filmmaker driven studios, so if a filmmaker comes to me and says, ‘Hey, I wanna do this,’ then I would be really open to it.”

To me I think with Pixar's beautiful level of animation they could bring a number of popular marvel heroes to life in very cool ways. When the world of comic books and animation meet, there are always multiple and interesting possibilties. What do you think of this? Sound off with your thoughts below.
