re: Lasseter/Pixar Co-Founder Stepping Down #metoo related

Not a giant surprise. He was fond of having female staff sit on his lap while they reviewed work the women had done. He also came across as a very hug and touch sort of person. To everyone he came across.

It only takes a few of those people to find it creepy before you are swimming in dangerous waters with corporate.

This is a major blow to Pixar/Disney. Lasseter was the behind the scenes genius who got results, even if it meant firing the original director and bringing in someone new to improve the product.

Its hard to find the mix of creative genius who is ruthless enough to run a studio.
