Back from the beyond

Post – December 7, 2001

I’ve extolled the virtues of “Monsters, Inc.” several times on this page. Along with “Princess and the Warrior,” I think it’s one of the best movies of 2001. (Which isn’t saying much, unfortunately. But these two stand on their own.) Now they’re advertising that after keeping the animation “outtakes” out of the closing credits, they’re adding them back in starting today. (Outtakes, for those who don’t know, are extra little scenes Pixar animates that are like traditional movie flubs, where characters blow their lines, the microphone gets in the shot, etc. The outtakes for Toy Story 2 [are you listening, Xkot?] are absolutely priceless.) This is an evil plot to make fans like me see the movie yet again for the outtakes. Evil, but effective. Anyone want to go with me?

    Ditto on the joy of out-takes in A Bug’s Life. Best part of the movie.

    Yet another reason to go see it again and again and again.

    What a coincidence. Yesterday was the first time I saw Monster’s, Inc. and the outtakes were also priceless. “You didn’t fill out’chyour papa’work!”
