Disney was more than happy to put out a cheapy Toy Story 2 direct to video and Pixar was at least complacent enough to make it. When Disney liked what they saw, they decided to bump it up to a not-cheapy theatrical release.
Then, when the film ran into serious story problems, Pixar convinced Disney to let them start over from scratch, have Lasseter direct, and rush a revised TS2 through production to meet the same deadline.
Pixar can afford to be qaulity over >qauntity, disney and its shareholders can not be. >
Aren't they the same shareholders that also own Pixar?
