Merrick here...
A few weeks ago, we learned that The Powers That Be at Disney/TRON LEGACY had sought the advice of, and received notes from, the folks over at Pixar (details HERE).
Now comes word that the same situation has unfolded again...this time for the yet-to-be-greenlit Muppet movie we've been hearing about for quite some time. Seems discussions have taken place between Disney and Pixar (who is not formally involved with the making of the film) in an effort to ensure the script for the picture is as good as it needs to be, and should be, before Disney moves ahead with the project.
The Hollywood Reporter has a brief-but-interesting piece on the continuing exploration/exploitation of this corporate symmetry, which you can check out HERE.
