MONSTERS INC. (2001) | FIRST TIME WATCHING | MOVIE REACTION

[@danielallen3454]

Boo was voiced by the daughter of one of the animator's who around the right age. But it was difficult, because she was so young to get her to stay in the studio and record her lines. So they simply settled for the expedient of letting her wander around and recording what she said as she played, and then editing it together later.

[@zacharybear7243]

Wow I never knew that. That’s wild.

[@Kuzamer]

Boo even shares the same name as the actress.

[@mahega128]

I always imagine that it would hit you even 10 times harder if they would have gone with the ending route where Sully opens the door and Boo says “Kitty” but in a young woman’s voice. Like even as a teenager, she still remembers Sully and believes in monsters.

[@heliopyre]

yeah, I agree.

[@Gutslinger]

That wouldn't have hit nearly as hard as the original did for me.

[@アキコ2003]

@@Gutslinger aaand why is that

[@deathwitheponine]

You’re so right

[@Gutslinger]

@@アキコ2003 Whatever new older voice would be unrecognizable and thus there's no attachment to that voice, as there is with the toddler voice that you've grown familiar and attached to throughout the movie. An older unrecognizable voice of an unfamiliar teen or an adult just wouldn't pull the same sentiments from me. So it wouldn't have been as impactful on me.

[@triceyg2014]

"USE THAT BIG ASS EYE AND LOOK!" 😂❤😂

[@Meowmorales2007]

I love how J didn’t really get teary eyed much at boo and sully goodbye but he got really touched by emotion from the complete beautiful way on how Mike fixed the door so boo and sully and see each other again.

[@NK-bz9wb]

I ugly cry at the end of this film every time. The symbolism for laughter being the strongest power/ source of energy, moving on while carrying a piece of someone with you wherever you go, and eventually the idea that you could cross a door where you would hear the voice of a loved one who you thought you'll never see or hear again, and on top of it that they're exactly the same as they were .

[@SherriLyle80s]

Sorry for those that lost their fur babies. I lost my best bud of 12 years in Feb 2022. F-ck cancer. To add: I really love your shirt! 🦕

[@theirishslyeyes]

...Boo? Kitty! Breaks me every time, and I've seen this movie a million times. And I'll absolutely be here for any and all Disney/Pixar movie, every time!

[@PruneHub]

Only if Disney goes back to making stuff like this. I will never watch crap like Snow Woke and the token dwarf. Monsters Inc was wholesome.

[@HobnailTrekkingCo]

God bless you, bro. I'm 57 years old, 6' 5", 240lb., and since we first watched it with our kids (two boys and a girl) years ago, this damn movie makes me ugly weep. In fact, it's legend in our house that when the kids wanted to see me cry, they forced me to watch this movie. Animated or not, the ending of this is brutal, especially for any father of a girl, but you get it, too.

[@BOFAMET]

This is so heartwarming.... I'm 28 so I grew up with this movie, and the ending never really hit me that hard until I had a daughter of my own 3 years ago. Now it makes me wanna cry like a little girl when I see it!

[@JDZen]

I get revenge on my daughter by making her watch How to Train Your Dragon 2. Get a hug every time.

[@Shlankyman545]

Animated and live action movies can be good, bad, happy, sad, horrifying or hilarious. As long as the movie is put together well and has a compelling story, I couldn’t care less about the style it’s filmed in.

[@beesly01]

The second you said "I'm not crying." I was like "You will."

[@calebfoster7954]

Never apologize for tearing up my man. It's a good movie that gives you the feels. I really look forward to seeing you do more animated ones 😃

Always loved how John Goodman and Steve Buscemi went straight from Walter telling Donny to shut the fuck up to Randall calling Sully a pathetic piece of waste. Keep forgetting how much range they have.

[@bifflilla]

Pixar always has a gift for sneaking up on your cold dead heart and giving you all the feels. Ain’t no shame in it. It just means the world hasn’t completely ruined us.

[@TheYoungGeninSasuke]

I hope you do Monster University. And the voice of Boo was a actual child, but they couldn't get her to stay still to record so they followed her around and recorded her.

Something about Monsters Inc always makes me smile and get a little emotional. It was from the era when Pixar was a sign you were getting a 10/10 animated movie. I still remember the night my mom took me to see this when I was young. It was great then and it's still great now.

[@amandam.4841]

My sisters are 10 and 12 years younger than me, and I remember watching this with them when they were *little*. I've loved this movie ever since, which is good cuz it was played on a loop for a long time 😂 my mom STILL yells "we have a 2319!" EVERY time she finds a random sock laying somewhere in her house.

[@michaelcoffey1991]

One of my favorite new animated films. Has so much heart, great lines, and the kid is insanely cute. @JL I adore and love your lines of humor and your emotional reaction to heart and pathos. I thank the EOM staff and it's amazing donating patreons.

It’s crazy how much Sulley actually looks like John Goodman as a blue furry monster 😆😆 I loved him in his supporting role in “Flight” with Denzel. That’s was a fantastic character. Needed a spin off tv series just on that character

[@samwallaceart288]

This movie's plot is so dense for a kids' movie and yet clear and concise. Following this story and figuring out how all the rules come together and pay off in the end, this movie was my shit growing up. Pixar managed to make a G-Rated conspiracy thriller. And everybody been trying to copy it ever since.

[@bwilliams463]

The sequence where Sully thinks Boo is going through the garbage processor was inspired by the Warner Bros cartoon 'Feed the Kitty.' It features Pussyfoot, an adorable little kitten, and Marc Antony, the big bulldog who is super-protective of her. In the cartoon, Marc Antony thinks that Pussyfoot has fallen into their owner's cookie batter. Sully's reactions as he thinks he's watching Boo get crushed and mangled are inspired by Marc Antony's reactions to watching what he thinks is Pussyfoot going through different steps of the cookie-making process.

[@michaelminch5490]

I caught that the first time I watched this with my nephews they were little.

[@mamakat114]

You hoping he sees Boo again and tearing up at the end makes you even more endearing. You always make me laugh, but this made me want to cry too. And I've seen this a couple dozen times. Hugs

I don't cry at the end, even though it's super emotional, but I cried watching you cry. Something about seeing you experience it for the first time got me.

[@Scary__fun]

The slow-mo walk out was based on the movie The Right Stuff about the real-life pilots of the space program. Definitely a great movie and an educational one about the bravery of pilots taking dangerous risks.

Randall is voiced by Steve Buscemi. And that scene when the monsters enter the scare floor to the inspiring music is a reference to The Right Stuff, a film about the space program in the Apollo era.

Don't be afraid to cry my dude. Your body releases toxins and sheds psychological baggage through emotional tears. Most of us are crying right along with you, because that ending hits just as hard every time. Pixar is very good at what they do. :P

When this movie came out, my much older brother had a daughter to was the joy of our life.

We must’ve saw this movie atleast half a dozen times in theaters. Core memories that I cherish.

"Boo?" "Kitty!" Emotional Damage! 😭 Fun Fact: Theatrical movie debut of Mary Gibbs. Music Enthusiast Fact: If I Didn't Have You (2001) by Randy Newman finally netted the composer an Academy Award after 16 nominations. Obvious Foreshadowing Fact: Whenever the CDA arrives, Roz( Bob Peterson) tends to pull down the shutter to her office, likely to hide the fact that she's the leader. What Script Fact: The sequence where Mike is waking up Sulley (John Goodman) he was supposed to blow an air horn and yell at Sulley but Billy Crystal improvised the radio weather forecast sequence and the directors loved it and decided to keep it in the film. Voice Play Fact: Mary Gibbs was so young that it proved difficult to get her to stand in the recording studio and act her lines. Instead, they simply followed her around with a microphone and cut Boo's lines together from the things she said while she played. John Goodman and Billy Crystal sometimes recorded their lines in the same room together, an unusual move for animated films, where actors more often work alone. Steve Buscemi and Frank Oz (Randall and his assistant Fungus) also recorded their lines together for the bathroom scene. Bob Peterson, the movie's story supervisor, provided the temporary voice of Roz, the green secretary, during production. The nasal, sing-song voice proved to be such a success that they kept it in the final film.

Hi JL I really enjoyed your reactions and comment during Monsters Inc. very much. I remember the first time I watched it I cried ....tears down my face and choaked up . When Mike put back Boos's door for Sully.... that's a true friend . This maybe animated from Pixel but that does not make it any less a movie than any of the classics . I look forward to watching more animated and Pixel related movies in EOM Reacts. To me if Monster's Inc. doesn't touch a piece of someone's heart they need to get in touch with their inner child ASAP . I Love this movie a lot . Thank you.
