Joe Ranft, Pixar Animation Studios' head of story for more than a decade and a cornerstone of the company's creative team, died Tuesday when the car he was riding in plunged into the ocean after running off the road in Mendocino County, Calif. He was 45.

A spokeswoman for the Mendocino County Sheriff-Coroner's Office confirmed Wednesday that Ranft was one of two people who died when the 2004 Honda Element they were traveling in veered off the road while heading north on Highway 1.

For real. You'd expect the guy to be driving, like, 12 Bentleys at once or something, not a Honda.

Sad news. With Pixar on the verge of breaking out on it's own, too.

This is what happens when one makes a deal with the Disney.

Man, that's terrible...

The master is gone and his creation is bound for disaster at the hands of evil doers....

Who will finish Toy Story 3?
