Product Description
Experience the film that captured the hearts of critics and fans around the world in a breathtaking new way. MONSTERS, INC. is "visually dazzling, action-packed and hilarious," raves The Boston Herald. Lovable Sulley (John Goodman) and his wisecracking sidekick Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) are the top scare team at Monsters, Inc., the scream-processing factory in Monstropolis. When a little girl named Boo wanders into their world, it's the monsters who are scared silly, and it's up to Sulley and Mike to keep her out of sight and get her back home. Open the door to a phenomenal world of excitement and imagination that will have you screaming for more. Loaded with sensational bonus features, including the theatrical short "Partysaurus Rex," MONSTERS, INC. is hours of fantastic family fun.|MONSTERS, INC., shattered every DVD-era home entertainment sales record when 11 million DVD/VHS copies of the film were sold during its first week of release. Only THE LION KING, released in the "pre-DVD" era, sold more units when it debuted on VHS in 1995.|Typically, voice actors record their parts individually and never meet their costars -- but John Goodman and Billy Crystal broke animation protocol for MONSTERS, INC., and recorded their parts at the same time. Says Crystal: "I did the first session alone ... and I said, 'You know, this is terrible.'" Director Pete Docter "kept wanting all different line readings of the same line," Crystal says. '"Why am I doing all of these?' I asked. He said, 'Well, in case I change the scene around, and I'll get John to do it.' I said, 'Isn't that just silly? When we can be together and do it together and play the scenes?' And that's what we did. "|Singer-songwriter Randy Newman had been nominated for an Academy Award® 16 times -- and never won -- before he finally won for the song "If I Didn't Have You."

a review on Disney's Blu-ray release of Finding Nemo. I was filled with excitement,
as I raved about the remarkable job the animation team did with the film's 3D
translation. When all was said and done, I placed Finding Nemo at the top of the
list as the best animated upconversion that I had seen to date.
Now, I sit here again, filled with the same exhilaration, having just watched
the newly released 3D Blu-ray of Monsters, Inc. which I can completely assure
you benefits greatly by its new dimensionality added in post production.
The success of Pixar's 2001 release rests mostly on the charm of its voice
talents. The pairing of Billy Crystal (Wazowski) and John Goodman (Sulley)
provide some of the best comedic performances found in any Pixar film to
date. For those of you who still may not be familiar with the story, it concerns a
pair of specially-trained monsters WHO work 9 to 5 at the largest scream-processing
factory in Monstropolis. As they sneak into bedrooms, the screams of frightened
children are collected and used to power the Metropolis. Believed by Monsters
to be toxic, children are strictly forbidden from entering their world. As you would
expect, that is exactly what happens as a little girl named Boo (Mary Gibbs)
enters the factory, creating complete chaos. As Sulley and Wazowski try to
return Boo, they uncover a dangerous plot about to be set off by a multi-legged
chameleon-like lizard named Randall Boggs (Steve Buscemi), that could be
deadly to them all.
Monsters Inc. translates flawlessly to 3D Blu-ray, which amazes me because
often you'll hear skeptics talk about how wearing format eyewear diminishes
overall picture quality. Through my active shutter glasses, I was astonished
to find no such degradation. In fact, what I saw before me was strikingly perfect
imagery with its palette of rich colors and vast amount of textures that are really
pleasing to the eyes. There's just a wonderful array of vivid, neon-rainbow colors
to behold here. Black levels are fantastic. Even more astonishing is the level
of detail that only Blu-ray could provide. You can see every strand of fur
across Sully's Monstrous body, and with the added depth that 3D provides, it
appears to be more realistically soft and natural. This is another one of those
transfers that turns your display into a picture window where everything seems
so perfect inside that you could almost reach in and touch it. In a word, it's
breathtaking.
The 3D itself is quite excellent, opening this film up to an entirely new viewing
experience thanks to a noticeable amount of depth that makes each scene
look limitless in size. While there are no blatant gimmicks it's very cool to see
just how many body...err...monster parts protrude outwards. Take notice how
Randall Bogg's slinky lizard head pokes itself outside the boundaries of the display.
Check out the snakes in Celia's hairdo as they move in and out of the space
between film and viewer. I even enjoyed the opening title sequence with its many doors
that jettison outward when opened. And speaking of which....the most thrilling 3D
effects can be seen during the door vault sequence. If you have a subwoofer and
turn the sound up loud, you almost feel as if you are on a roller coaster ride as doors
race down a conveyor belt. The pure depth that is portrayed as you look to the bottom
of the vault is immensely impressive. I also loved the overhead shots of the CDA
swat team and all its helicopters converging on the city. This is the kind of perspective
you just cannot replicate in 2D.
And up to this point you haven't heard me complain about crosstalk. Well, that's because
there is absolutely no ghosting to be found here. That's a real thumbs up for this transfer.
While the 3D is impressive enough, nothing can prepare you for the explosive Dolby
TrueHD 7.1 soundtrack (downconverted to 5.1 on my system). I don't think I could write
anything about the acoustic experience and do it justice. Let me just say that I have
rarely been so sonically immersed in a film as I was here. There is such an unbelievable
level of effect placement and panning that are perfectly executed as if without any effort
attached. At any moment, you could expect sounds to emanate from different corners
of the room. At times, I heard helicopters encircling my head. Other times it was the
screams of frightened children. Every stomp, thump, drop, crash and pounce in this
film is heavily accented by powerful LFE that can be felt as well as heard. I talked
about how great the door vault sequence looks in 3D. Just wait until you crank your
system high and find yourself in the middle of the action as you feel the floor vibrate
beneath your seat cushion. Make no mistake about it -- this is reference quality audio
that will be the subject of conversation with your friends long after the credits roll.
...and when you are done assaulting your senses with Monsters, Inc., don't forget
to take a look at the included short, Partysaurus Rex. It stars the lovable Rex
dinosaur of Toy Story fame as he throws a party for discarded bathtub toys. I
found it a highly entertaining short, mostly thanks to its effective use of 3D, brilliant
neon colors and pumping techno track. Very worthwhile addition to this package.
The Ultimate Collector's Edition of Monsters, Inc. arrives as a 5-disc set. There
are single 2D and 3D feature film discs, a bonus Blu-ray disc with a wealth of extra
features, and separate DVD and Digital Copy Feature discs. The Blu-ray case is
sleeved with clever lenticular packaging that gives the effect of Wazowski and Sully
opening a bedroom closet door.
I continue to praise Disney for their efforts in bringing new life to their existing library
with 3D upconversions that are extremely well done. Monsters, Inc. looks more expansive
and feels more impactful and emotional than ever before thanks to the amount of depth
and realism this format is able to provide. If one could afford it, I would recommend
enthusiasts purchase every single 3D animated feature Disney has released to date.
However, if you could only afford to buy two, I would place Finding Nemo and Monsters, Inc.
at the top of the list (in that order).
In the meantime, I am looking for a used 3D TV! ! ___ My Living Room will have my new 65" QLED, my Big Box 1st Picture in Picture Samsung Smart TV & One Day my 3D TV!, my new 3D Video Player, Disc Player, & Combination Player, Roku & Converter Box (to watch FREE NFL & Local Channels) & possibly a Region Free player to play my British DVDs if my Region Setting gets stuck!
___(I bought Videos from Oxford because of family ties during European Union Vote to send $$$ their way. Not realizing they were Region 2 discs!!! Many British movies & animation are Region 2!)
___Picture me surrounded by TVs & a Sewing machine with 'YouTube 4K Fireplace' on 1 of the screens!!! Happy Camper! Take Care, Skyblue7

✅ Le disque est très joli et comporte la même photo que la boite.
✅ La langue est bien en Français, en DTS-HD HR 5.1, ce qui offre une qualité de voix excellente.
Les graphismes sont incroyables sur une télévision 4k HDR !
Une histoire pleine d’humour, d’émotions et de bienveillance à regarder seul ou en famille ! 😍

Trotz Erfahrung bei Tageslicht mit "Herr der Ringe" und "Harry Potter" -- da hab ich lange gezögert (vor allem H.P. ab 3.), bis sie mich überredet haben.
Die Comic-Monstergesichter sind dann bei ihr (vor der Mitnahme des kleinen Mädchens) komischerweise mehr Trigger gewesen als die Nazgûl o. Voldemort (versteht das jemand?).
Letztlich haben wir ihn Monate später tagsüber geschaut und sie lieben ihn beide sehr.
Dennoch bitte allenfalls rantasten und abwägen, ob der nicht, trotz des Kuscheltierlooks, begleitet geschaut werden muss (s.o.) -- den Modus gibt es bei uns bis auf sehr kindliche Filme, wie zum x-ten Mal Pipi Langstrumpf, eh nur, damit nicht /unverdaut/ im Kopf bleibt und ich ggf. Beistand und Beantworter sein kann.
Aspect cosmétique: Boite en plastique bleue très quelconque. Disques propres et sans poussiere.
Chargement plutot long ceci en comparaison à d'autres BR qui eux se chargent vite.
Disney est pénible en imposant leurs pubs au lancement du disque...
Aspects techniques.
Vidéo :Disque en Blu ray 2K. Visualisé sur un TV OLED 56" HDR et lecteur OPPO 4K HDR et ampli Yamaha RX A3050 l'image est belle, détaillée, bonne résolution et définition. Pas de bruit, l'image est fluide, pas de figeage. Ce n'est pas anormal bien au contraire c'est de l'image de synthèse.
Son: La bande son est en français DTS ES 5.1, excellente , il y a du DTS HD master audio 5.1 en anglais.
Voix bien lisible sur la voie centrale. Espace sonore bien rempli, bonne spatialisation,
Excellente dynamique, bon niveau pas besoin de pousser l'ampli dans ses derniers retranchements.
Point de vue artistique:
Excellent scénario, et très bonne intrigue, histoire vraiment peu banale aux nombreux gags !
Nombreux personnages, monstres (à faire palir Star wars et Mr Spielberg) droles, tendres, attendrissants et même des méchants. Trés beau graphisme et dessins. Bonus très quelconques.
Globalement un magnifique et génial film, drole, plein d'humour et d'émotion pour les plus grands et les plus petits (pas trop petit tous de même), plaisir à partager en famille. Moi, j'adore...
