Congrats to my colleagues at ILM for an AMAZING job on Iron Man!!!! It was some truly amazing 3D work, I could have bet a million bucks that Iron Man's suit was real in some of those shots. :) Amazing work, and congrats!

And for Wall-E... this is awesome. 6 nominations is pretty darn amazing, and the musical score and sound effects add so much to such an amazing story, that it was really nice to see that it all got nominations. :) It was a dream come true to work on such an amazing film, and my most sincere congratulations to my friends still at Pixar and to the hardworking crew of Wall-E. 6 nominations?!?!??!! This is unbelievable!!

Feb 22nd is the Oscars and I'm really looking forward to it. But what a great success already and it's clear how big of a splash these movies made in 2008. Rock on!
