Congrats to Wall-E and Spain

Watching the Academy Awards is always something special to me. Not so much for the awards or the glamour, but because to me it feels like a big celebration of filmmakers/everyone involved as well as all the extremely hard work that goes into the craft. Been watching them for as long as I can remember...even when I was in Spain and had to wake up at 3am to watch them. So last year I felt more than proud to be working at Pixar and to being born/raised in Spain...having both Ratatouille and Javier Bardem both win Academy Awards. Yesterday I felt the same if not more having Wall-E and Penelope Cruz both win Academy Awards. I especially liked both their speeches for different reasons. So from here just wanted to congratulate again the Wall-E crew I had the pleasure of working with as well as Spain/Penelope for the Awards.

Co-worker Ronnie del Carmen posted some more on Andrew coming back to Pixar to celebrate.

Carlos.
