I suppose you could say that it was all done on Unix as Mac OS X is *nix based. Do you really think with Steve Jobs' involvement with Pixar there wouldn't be at least one Apple there? :-)

 

The most amazing part of the animation was when Sully was lying face down in the snow ... the movement of the hairs was stunning.

 

Go and see it now. Right now. And if you do, there are two sets of outtakes at the end so remember to stay for all of them!

Guys,

 

I know a few of you have been waiting for Monsters Inc to appear at the cinema (esp Mr Harris).  I was just lucky to be in canary wharf yesterday where they were showing a preview of the film.  Maybe only 40 of us in this 400 seat cinema!  Anyways to put you out of your misery book your tickets now because it has to be the best piece of animation I have ever seen.  It truly is light years beyond anything out there and even the story is fantastic.  You need this DVD when it comes out... trust me.

 

Anyway apologies for the interruption.  everyone back to web tablets.
