Does anyone know if/when/where a DVD version of this film will be available?

I just had to mention that I found the Latin on the t-shirt logo hilarious, and to suggest that someone at Pixar needs to animate a commencement ceremony in which all the graduates are those little three-eyed dudes. (Maybe it could go into “Toy Story 3″?)

I second that. I’d like to see/own a copy of this documentary. And tonight I’m in class :(

Rob T: If my Latin is correct, it means “Alone (different, alien) no longer (or no more).

I don’t mean to guano on your pompano.

Semper ubi sub ubi.

I think that Pixar University is one of the more interesting aspects of the studio that is still somewhat mysterious to the strangers from the outside. It’s nice to see it covered.

Some years ago, I was able to attend a Pixar University graduation ceremony.

Very cool.

Now here I’ve been thinking of Pepperdine as P.U.

Pixar U
Oh sweet PU
Thy fragrant odor fills the air
A pox on Yale
Poo poo Perdue
Pixar U my college fair

Ironically, the cute three-eyed alien they’ve adopted as Pixar U’s mascot was designed by Chris Sanders.

It has to be said:

Good ol’ P.U.
