    Interesting fact about Boo. Since the voice actress was a toddler when she played the character she wouldn’t sit still in the recording booth, so they followed her around the studio with a microphone in order to get her lines.

    The scene where Sully scares the prop kid and ends up accidentally scaring Boo in the process, and the enormity of that hits him while he's reviewing the frozen frames of the video, always struck me as what a kid sees when their parent is standing over them yelling.

      The little glance at her as he's still focusing on mean mugging the robot before he snaps out of his training to actually look back at her as she runs away is a brilliant little touch, blink and u miss it sort of thing. It brings a whole other layer of humanity t the character that you'd usually only see in live action. Also the reflection in her eyes as her tears start to well up... They totally bumped the lamp with that scene. And that's just visuals, not to mention the sound design as well. Absolutely amazing.

    20:46 they kinda clarified that in the later prequel "Monster University". Different kids are scared of different things, so one that is scared of lions would be well scared by someone like Sullie, and then Boo appears to be scared of reptiles so they matched her with Randall (like they said in the commercial). So yes, Randall scares her regularly

      they also explain in the sequel that scaring a kid with not just the matched monster, but also the right tactic to make them scream is important because otherwise they'll merely cry (like Boo does when she gets scared by Sully) and this would not only not give them any power but also just alert its parents (tho of course logically they'd get alerted by their kid screaming too, pff)

    • @lokhunt4329
      @lokhunt4329 Місяць тому +2

      @@MetaLatias5 I figured that crying would be harder to explain in a sense, while a child could have a nightmare and wake up screaming, and when they tell their parents, the parents think it's just nightmare. But with crying, that's harder, you saw something and cried? that'd be very odd to explain away. It also seems that crying produces unstable scream energy, which caused distortions and a power surge in just one area.

    17:50 - a bit to explain what Boo is saying-
    The studio cast a little girl and tried putting her in front of a microphone. But they found that she was shy and didn't want to make much noise when they did it. So they set up a playroom and followed her around with microphones to record what they could.
    Presumably, later they found good spots to put the different recordings within the film. So, for example, her being upset and screaming in the studio would be used in the apartment when Mike takes the bear from Boo.
    19:35 - with Boo speaking gibberish, the little girl they recorded was only about 2 or 3 years old. Vocal enough to make lots of noise, but not old enough to have a big vocabulary yet.

    9:05 The Monsters Inc. directors confirmed several things, first is the room at the other side of the door at the time mark is Sid's room, the evil kid from Toy Story.
    Second, the descriptions other give of the kid, that floating, shooting lasers and mind powers, is a theory that Jack-Jack from The incredibles, who in the second movie has the power to travel between dimensions, when he does his warp he does to the world of Monsters' Inc. and all that the monsters described was Jack-Jack going crazy with his powers since he can't control them.

      Disney owns Pixar now, but originally Pixar was started by George Lucas but then sold it to Steve Jobs. Disney originally was just the distributor for Pixar’s films until Jobs sold the company to Disney after Wall-E was released. So everything from Toy Story to Wall-E is 100% Pixar.

    if Monster's Inc. was real, Randal would have been my monster during my childhood. ever since seeing the movie Forbidden Planet (1956) on TV for the first time when I was 7 years old (in 1970), I have had nightmares about invisible monsters trying to get me! (😵‍💫I'M NOT PARANOID, YOU ARE!😵‍💫)
    in the early stages of writing the story, they wanted Boo to be an older girl when she got into the monster world and she would speak, but be gibberish to the monsters, and from her POV, the monsters would speak gibberish, but they soon tossed that idea and eventually made it with the younger Boo as a toddler.
    my son was still a baby when this came out, and I watched it with him a lot! when he was a toddler, Disney had Monster's Inc. on Ice, and when they came to our town we went to go see it. my son got so excited he actually fell out of his seat (so I had to hold him on my lap)! and it was so impressive with the skaters wearing all those monster suits to skate around the way they did!

    There's an interesting PIXAR Theory that 'Boo' grew up to become the witch from Brave. When Sully suddenly stopped visiting her, she became obsessed with magical doors in trying to find him - in fact, if you look closely, you'll spot at least two of the witch's carvings which are clearly Sullivan (and not bears).

    Also that Boo is Violet from the Incredibles as she practically disappeares and reappears.

    Something I recently learned: in the original cut of the Harryhausen's scene, the CDA actually blew up the building in a huge fireball. They changed it to a force field because it was just after 9/11 and Pixar felt that blowing up a building might not be in good taste. That's why the bag "recovered at the scene" looks scorched, like it was in an explosion.

    Since Incredibles came out I always thought Violet was Boo. Randall going invisible and a blue/ purple force field is too much of a coincidence for her powers, especially given the well to do room that famed Supers in hiding could afford. The 60's style decor of Incredibles following the 50s of Monsters Inc also tracks, and it also jives with Violet's character arc in both Incredibles films where she knows she's capable she just prefers hiding... Having a dad that used his super strength on the regular would translate to Boo's comfort around Kitty/ Sully, and a mom and Lucious and how many other Super powers would desensitize her from the various monsters.
