Happy New Year! To kick off 2013, Disney/Pixar have unveiled a reveal at their movies coming up in 2013, 2014 and beyond. Our friends at ComingSoon have discovered four pieces of new concept art for Pixar's next four movies, starting with Monsters University this summer, including their next few projects. In 2014 it's their if-dinosaurs-didn't-go-extinct movie titled The Good Dinosaur, directed by Bob Peterson, with a tease we've seen before. In 2015 it's Pete Docter's "Movie That Takes You Inside the Mind", now titled The Inside Out; and in 2016 they've also got Lee Unkrich's movie about Día de los Muertos, which we really don't know much about at all. Notably missing is Andrew Stanton's sequel Finding Nemo 2. Artwork below.

Here's all the Pixar concept art. Up first, a shot we've seen already for Monsters University this summer:

Next, arriving May 30th, 2014 is The Good Dinosaur from Bob Peterson about a boy and his dinosaur.

After that Pete Docter's The Inside Out, or just Inside Out, set "inside the mind" out on June 19th, 2015.

Finally, a tease (see the guy?) for Lee Unkrich's Untitled Dia de los Muertos Pixar Project due in 2016:

That's all the new concept art they've posted. Click any to visit ComingSoon for extra info from the source.

While we know Disney is working on re-releasing most of the Pixar classics in 3D, including Monsters Inc recently, prior to Monsters University next summer, it's refreshing to see so many original projects on the horizon. Most of the names and details for Pixar's projects from 2014 onward were revealed at CinemaCon in early 2012, but they've been keeping the artwork and teases out of the public for a while. As for The Good Dinosaur, since it's coming up next after MU, Peterson gave us this hint: "It's time to do a movie where you get to know the dinosaur, what it's really like to be a dinosaur and to be with a dinosaur." The other two, we still don't know what exactly they're about, but this art definitely gives us a clue. Your first impressions?

    I'm excited for original Pixar movies! Was Newt scrapped awhile back?
    • CheezyC
      Yeah, but they need to bring it back
      • Ryan
        It was too close to Rio, so they scrapped it.
  • Xerxexx
    Hopefully they can do better than Brave...that movie fell flat.
    • steve01
      to me brave was really good, better than up honestly
      • Xerxexx
        I found up to be very stale as well.
        • zapeter
          Man, you're a hard person to pull an awww from then, eh?
          • Xerxexx
            No not really...I for one loved Wall-E, A Bugs Life, and The Incredibles. Up fell apart after he got to the island and Brave just went in a completely different direction than I expected. Are they terrible...no.

          Really, damn. I thought Up and Brave were good movies. What animated movies have you liked?
          • Xerxexx
            Animation wise? Lots...so far Dreamworks has been hitting it big. Both Kung Fu Panda's were awesome. HTTYD was great, Despicable Me was good...definitely not great. The Croods is looking good. As for Pixar...Toy Story, A Bugs Life, The Incredibles, Wall-E...so I like some.

      Brave was a lesser Pixar film, but it was still a really damn good movie. It had humour and energy, a great main character, a moving exploration of the mother-daughter relationship and the ARTISTRY!! What a gorgeous film: I could stare at her hair for hours. The music was rousing as well. It was a return to form after Cars 2.

        I agree. I also loved "Up." For anyone who's ever lost a loved one, and felt as if their life purpose had gone, that movie was for them. My wife's grandmother lost her husband 15 years ago and the pain still lives on her face. But, she does things in life in remembrance of her loving husband. That was what Carl Fredricksen was doing in "Up" albeit on a much larger scale.
  • SomeGuy
    That's okay. I don't need to see any more Pixar movies again. They lost it long ago.

    I wish my finished projects looked as professional as Pixar's concepts.
  • Mike
    They stole the day of the dead idea from a smaller features studio in Dallas, Texas. Cars, Cars 2, Brave, and now thievery. No mas Pixar, no mas!
    • Wafffles
      How do you 'steal' an idea about a holiday? Did Tim Burton steal "Nightmare Before Christmas" from "It's a Wonderful Life"? Let it be known, I have a great idea for an animated film about Thanksgiving. There, now if anyone ever makes a Thanksgiving movie, you can bet your ass they stole it from me.
  • Happy Camper
    Pixar should try a hand drawn animation.

    Ooh... the Day of the Dead... interesting
  • robo
    THE INCREDIBLES 2!! PLEASE?
  • Clyde Stacks
    Yeah yeah yeah... I couldn't care less. Either make “finding Nemo 2: revenge of the sith" or a new Rugrats movie. Then I'll go to theaters. (i know Rugrats has nothing to do with pixar, I just miss Tommy & Chuckie..those was my niggas)
  • Legend
    That last picture is a Google Doodle.
  • madi
