| The TIFF Bell Lightbox is TIFF's headquarters and year-round home |
For years, I've been hoping that Pixar would premiere a feature at the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in September. The announcement finally came today, even if it is just for a re-release.
Finding Nemo 3D will have its World Premiere at the globally renowned celebration of film. Since it opens everywhere on September 14, I'd guess the premiere will happen in the first few days of the festival.
No word on who will be attending, but one would hope director Andrew Stanton shows up with some of the voice cast and maybe another Pixarian or two.
Also premiering at the festival will be the traditionally animated French film Ernest & Célestine (watch a clip here), as well as Sony Pictures Animation's rip-off of Pixar's Monsters, Inc. franchise.
The 37th Toronto International Film Festival runs from September 6 to 16.

By 'Sony Pictures Animation's rip-off of Pixar's Monsters, Inc. franchise' do you mean Hotel Transylvania? I was just wondering.
I really like the animation style of Ernest & Célestine a lot. The line work and the pseudo-watercolour look reminds me of My Neighbors the Yamadas. Do you know when there might be a wide English release of this film?
Hmmmm, they are also making a Finding Nemo video game. Maybe at the Finding Nemo 3D premier they will officially announce Nemo 2, or nothing. haha
Blue: Yes.
Anonymous #1: I wouldn't count on a wide English release ever.
Actually Mike, Finding Nemo 3D will be released on August 10th here in Mexico, so I guess it doesn't open 'everywhere' on September 14.
Just showin' off.
So Mike, if I want to watch Ernest & Célestine, I'll have to look for a fansub then?
Eh. I'm going to see Hotel Translyvania because I absolutely dig the style of CGI animation their going for with the movie (Snappy, quick) and some of the directors work defined my childhood (Dexter's Laboratory, Samurai Jack).
Here in Mexico the movie opens August 10th!! Yay!!!
