A single Pixar lunch meeting lead to 6 films and $4B at the box office.
It might be the greatest business lunch ever and was memorialized in the teaser film trailer for Wall-E (2008).
Andrew Stanton — one of Pixar's most prolific directors — tells the story:
➡️“In the summer of 1994 there was a lunch. Me, John Lasseter, Pete Docter, the late Joe Ranft all sat down [at the Hidden City Cafe in Point Richmond, California near Pixar’s head office]. Toy Story was almost complete and we thought ‘well jeez, if we’re going to make another movie, we better get started now’. So at that lunch, we knocked around a bunch of ideas that eventually became A Bug’s Life, Monsters Inc., Finding Nemo. The last one we talked about that day was the story of a robot name Wall-E.”⬅️
Toy Story was a smash hit, bringing in a worldwide box office of $245m (Hollywood's biggest haul in 1995, besting Apollo 13 and Batman Forever).
Steve Jobs used Toy Story’s success as a launchpad for Pixar’s IPO that same year
In the following years, Pixar checked off films they ideated in the lunch:
◻️1998: A Bug’s Life ($363m, directed by John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton)
◻️2001: Monsters Inc. ($529m, Pete Docter)
◻️ 2003: Finding Nemo ($871m, Andrew Stanton)
◻️ 2006: Disney acquires Pixar for $7.4B. Jobs owned ~50% of Pixar and became Disney’s largest single shareholder, with a 7% stake. The massive pay-off was two decades in the making: in 1986, Jobs paid $5m to George Lucas for the graphics animation company that would become Pixar (and invested another $50m into the company).
◻️2008: Wall-E ($521m, Andrew Stanton)
The Pixar team picked Toy Story — and then A Bug’s Life and Monsters Inc. — because it was cheaper to animate toys / animals than humans.
In the decade after Wall-E, Pixar released 2 related films:
◻️ 2013: Monsters University ($744m, Dan Scanlon)
◻️ 2016: Finding Dory ($1B, Andrew Stanton)
In total, the 6 films have grossed >$4B.
Jobs famously made Pixar's HQ an open structure with an atrium area where everyone had to pass through. Why? He wanted to maximize the amount of interaction between employees from different divisions (Jobs told historian Walter Isaacson that the key to creativity was serendipity).
The $4B Pixar lunch is about as "creativity is serendipity" as it gets.
