Pixar Animation Studios director Andrew Stanton says that the company has gone to extraordinary lengths to preserve precise details in its Blu-ray version of Wall-E, due to be released on Nov. 18. The Video Business website quoted Stanton as saying, "This is the first time where a format exactly represents how good a film looks in the building here. ... It used to be that you'd only go downhill from here after [creating films in the studio]. We sweat over every pixel." Pixar's general manager, Jim Morris, suggested that the extra work poured into the Blu-ray edition, was initially a matter of Pixar pride. "This is a filmmaker's dream. They didn't think that anyone cared about that level of technicality as much as they do, and now they are happy that people do."
