Are you crazy about Disney Pixar movies?

So are we! Disney Pixar movies are my passion, and The Leaping Lamp is a name in tribute to the short film Luxo Jr., the Pixar lamp. This site about sharing our enthusiasm as fans of these movies with you.

The group of imaginative artists at Disney Pixar have a way with telling a tale that touches all of us, both adults and children.

Each movie is unique in its look and feel and the stories are rich in humanity and humor, bar none.

Pixar has caught on with many thousands of people like you and me who appreciate that magical combination of a good story and remarkable technology in computer animation.

And speaking of remarkable technology... these Disney Pixar movies have set that WOW factor to a high level - aren't you wide eyed and in gaping awe when you see each new release?

The colors!

The realism!

HOW DID THEY DO THAT???

My young son, Aidan, is the person who converted me into a fan and you'll get a kick out of his reactions to movies like Cars (his favorite) or his favorite short film, One Man Band.
