Pixar will be releasing the latest Brave trailer online tomorrow. It's been running the last few days before Disney's Chimpanzee. I saw both Chimpanzee and the new trailer over the weekend and can recommend this trailer as the most exciting and intriguing yet. I'll post it here as soon as it's available, likely 12am Pacific Time.
Four new Brave stills were released this morning — by far the most emotional we've seen to date.
Thanks Pixar Times

Journalist Brent Schlender dug up a box full of interviews he conducted with Jobs in various stages of his career, and has published a truly interesting article documenting the time he spent developing his two non-Apple babies NeXT and Pixar between 1985 to 1996.
