A marvellous site dedicated to nothing else other than the grid system from a design point of view.
More information and examples than you could throw a ham sandwich at, tons of links, and a cool looking site.

A grid yesterday:

The Art of Pixar

A fan curated gallery of the art of Pixar. The guy who runs it is limited somewhat by the images he can use (mainly promotional stuff), but the quality still shines through.

And in my opinion, Ratatouille is the best animated feature of all time. So there.

Rats and stuff here.
