At Cult of Mac, Sarah Lai Stirland offers an amusing anecdote from Pixar Director Mark Andrews, who got to tell Steve Jobs off.
Mark Andrews, a writer, director and storyboard artist at Pixar, recounted that Jobs would often drop in to participate in production postmortems. It was at the company's screening of "The Incredibles," about a family of superheroes living undercover in the suburbs, where he first met Apple's late co-founder. Andrews worked on the project as its story supervisor.
"He was sitting next to me and he said: 'I just got one thing, John and Brad,'[the film's producer and writer/director] They said: 'Sure, what is it Steve?' He said: 'Those stupid-ass, George Lucas-reject Star Wars space ships in "The Incredibles" are asinine!'" Andrews said. "And I designed 'em, and I turned around and I said: 'Excuse me, Steve, those are MY George Lucas-reject fuckin' asinine space ships!'
