[edit] Manga

I agree that the reference to the manga version should be here. I don't see the relevance of the lists and indexes of manga links. Those belong in an article about manga rather than here. I intend to do some trimming. Any thoughts before I do? Glenn6502 14:49, 28 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Universe or World

I just watched "Monsters, Inc." yesterday. It seems to me that the monsters live on another world, whether in a parallel dimension or not is irrelevant. When they go through a closet door, they are coming in to our world using the door as a portal. This is similar to the stargates, though not as big nor nearly as noisy. Unless someone objects within a week, I'm going to change it back to talk about "world". Val42 18:20, Mar 19, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Animated shorts

What animated short(s) aired with this movie at any time? This includes in theters or on DVD/VHS. --Wack'd About Wiki 16:57, 12 August 2005 (UTC)

It aired with For the Birds (which is unrelated to Monsters Inc.) in cinemas and, on the VHS and DVD release, it also featured Mike's New Car, in which Mike gets a new car (duh). Squidward2602 21:16, 30 August 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Cleanup?

The article is tagged as needing a cleanup. I can't see anything wrong with it. Shall I remove the notice?

--JimmyTheWig 11:23, 27 June 2006 (UTC)

Hello, I just randomly stumbled upon this article, and it seems to me that it does need some cleanup, particularly in the "Plot" section. The plot summary is not concise at all, and would be very confusing to someone who has not seen the film. I have not seen the film in a couple years, so this was particularly evident to me as I read it. Anyways, I was just voicing my opinion as it seemed like no one was saying anything. I am agreeing with the cleanup notice. 71.112.229.9 03:55, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Fair enough. We're watching it about three times a week with our two year old (lucky it's such a great film), so it was bound to make sense to me!

Will try and write something better when I have a chance.

--JimmyTheWig 08:37, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

I cleaned the text up and added some details. Please let us know if the cleanup tag can be removed now. -Wilfredo Martinez 05:59, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Featured Article?

What are anybody's thoughts on trying to improve this article to FA standard? Naturally, the first step would be a peer review, then we can work on it. It would be nice to emulate the success of the Final Fantasy articles and have several Pixar articles featured. RMS Oceanic 10:21, 13 September 2006 (UTC)

I agree. We can start with the style guidelines; add production notes, cast notes, etc. :)HoneyBee 17:04, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Can i have a link to monster inc game

[edit] Original short film

Years before this movie came out I saw a (differently) animated short on IFC's short film showcase called Monsters, Inc and the concept was the same. Either this movie is based on that or Disney's got some splanin' to do.

Has anyone else seen the short I'm talking about? I'm trying to locate it (as well as reference materials) but am so far having little to no luck. Any thoughts/help?

[edit] Images

The images here need to be replaced; They're blurry and obviously photos taken of a TV. I can replace them soon with pictures off of my Monsters Inc. DVD with my computer. I just need to know how you attach the copyright information so the images won't be taken down. If you know, please reply and tell me, please!Catcher Block 02:07, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Cast Section

Is there much point in having the cast of all the different languages that MI was dubbed in on the English page? Shouldn't these be moved to that language's respective article? RMS Oceanic 11:58, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Rumor

I heard a rumor about a squeal planed for release 2010 is this true

PS I don't want trouble

[edit] Needs More

Do we need the mistakes/blips in this article? I don't think it's necessary. Put some production notes, change list to prose, fix the cast list, etc. Check the [[1]] to be sure. Can anyone help? HoneyBee 16:59, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

DONE. Also removed newly created trivia section (SEE ABOVE, PEOPLE) which had dupes from Mistakes section.

As before, please integrate these into article text with citations ... or leave mistakes out as 'too much trivia.' -- David Spalding (☎ ✉ ✍) 17:14, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Mistakes/Blips

• Towards the end of the film, when Mike and Sulley meet the CDA "number 00001", several different CDA monsters have the same number, 00112 - the same texture had been used on several models to reduce modeling time.
• In the very first scene, in the kid's room simulator, one angle shows a floor mat with a ball and a toy train set on it. However, when the first monster falls down on the mat, the train is no longer there and in its place are the jacks he falls on. The soccer ball appears to move, too.
• In the international version of the video/DVD several instances of written English text have been replaced with universal symbols (see Alternate Versions). However on several occasions they switch back to the original appearance. For instance: The "Standby/Scare" sign in the factory, the "Contamination alert" on the video wall during the first 2319 and the joke on the video wall in the final scene.
• Sulley makes Boo giggle a few times when they play hide and seek in the restroom, but the power never spikes and no lights blow out. (According to the commentary on the DVD, the creators realized this but chose not to address it.)
• When Sulley is playing hide and seek with Boo in the men's bathroom, Sulley walks into the stall where he thinks that she is. When Sulley turns around to see her outside of the stall, we see Boo and Boo's reflection in the mirror, but not Sulley's reflection. All that the camera sees is an empty stall and toilet... minus Sulley.
• In the opening scene when the monster comes through the door, he closes the door most of the way, but when the instructor does a review of what the student did wrong, the door is left mostly open.
• The scoreboard on the video wall sometimes shows decreased values for some monsters, for instance when Waternoose talks to Jerry and just before the first 2319.
• When in the ice cave, Mike picks up the last snow cone. As he first picks it up the snow is yellow, then it goes white and then back to yellow.
• When Mike walks away after congratulating Celia (in the beginning of the film) he passes a marking in the floor. In the next shot, viewed from above, he is much nearer her than in the shot before, which can be seen by the floor markings.
• When the C.D.A are scanning Monsters, Inc., a co-scarer opens the door that doesn't seem to be there but are there when Mike and Sulley open the door.
• When Mike is talking to Roz about his paper work, Mike's lip crosses through the counter at one point.
• When we see Mike wake up Sulley in the beginning, we see Sulley's alarm clock on his right-hand night stand, but later when Boo jumps into Sulley's bed the alarm clock is not there.
• When Sulley goes to put Boo back in her room, the clock above the door of the scare floor clearly indicates 5:50; when he runs out of the room it indicates 6:50.
• Mostly towards the end, we learn that laughing creates much more energy than screaming does. Near the end of the movie, while Sulley, Mike, and Boo are riding the doors, Boo screams, and starts to power up the door that they are riding. When Sulley and Mike make Boo laugh very short after, it powers up every door in the large room they are in, or at least what we see of them, implying that laughter is hundreds, if not thousands of times more powerful than screaming. Yet right before the ending, after Mike gloats about how funny he is, Sulley says that laughing is only 10 times more powerful than screaming.
• In the scene where Mike and Sulley are escaping from Randall through the doors, right before they enter the door laying on the ground that leads to Paris, you can see a wrench in the background that resembles Randall, himself. (Or a serpent in general.)
• In the scene where Sulley puts Boo back in to her room, she hands Sulley some toys, including a doll that resembles Jesse (from Toy Story 2) and a fish that looks like Nemo and the ball from Toy Story 2 and Toy Story.

Trivia

• Before the scene where Roz shreds Boo's door, Boo is seen giving Sulley some toys. One of the toys appears to be Jessie from Toy Story 2 and another was an orange clownfish, perhaps representing Nemo or Marlin from Finding Nemo, despite the fact that it was still two years away from release.

• In the scene where Mike and Sulley are escaping from Randall through the doors, right before they enter the door laying on the ground that leads to Paris, you can see a wrench in the background that resembles Randall, himself. (Or a serpent in general.)

• When Randall is in the trailer, on the far left, you can see the Pizza Planet truck from Toy Story and Toy Story 2.

Looking through these, the *only* trivia point of interest is how they mic'd Mary Gibbs for Boo and used her drawings in the film. That would go in the production section but they NEED citation. The rest of this trivia/mistakes can be left to sites that deal with that information better (Imbd, moviemistakes.com). --Masem 17:23, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

The entire Mistakes/Blips section appears to be a word-for-word (even down to the order of the items) copy of the Goofs section of the IMDb entry, thus a copyright violation. -- 217.171.129.73 (talk) 12:23, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
