You would have heard me chuckling, too **Ferrous** had we been in the same theater. I liked this movie a lot (went to see it twice). ---

I laughed as well at that Harry joke. saw it twice myself, opening night, then again when they added the outtakes. I’m a sucker for Pixar marketing ploys ever since the outtakes for A Bug’s Life showed up! ---

I just wish they’d tied up the loose end of the yeti. What happened to him after Mike and Sully left?? “Now take Bigfoot for example. When he was banished he made a hat out of Poison Ivy. Wore it like a tiara. Called himself “King Itchy”.” ---

Why has no one mentioned the biggest adult gag in the film??? Mike= One eyed Monster… anyone? :cough: Fine, I’ll lurk a little more. Btw, Ice Age is also pretty good, the animation in it is arguably superior. ---

I cracked up when I saw the restaurant was Harry Hausen’s. Also, when Mike said to his girlfriend “from the first time I laid eye on you”, I almost fell off my chair!! Watched this with my 15 and 11 year old, all loved it!! FWIW, also liked Ice Age quite a lot. ---

I saw this for the first time a couple of weeks ago. Yeah, the outtakes and Mikes New Car were the best parts. My husband and I almost injured ourselves laughing at Mike’s New Car. But I loved the whole thing. ---

A friend of ours took her two kids, ages three and six, to see it, and she said they had a hard time understanding the corporate setting and the motivation of the bad guys. My husband and I loved it. I think it’s one of the best-done movies I’ve seen in a long time. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/monsters-inc/132763.md?page=1)
