Monsters, Inc. From the Academy Award(R)-winning creators of Toy Story comes the computer-animated film that captured the hearts of fans and critics everywhere. Monsters, Inc., is "visually dazzling, action-packed, and hilarious" (Boston Herald), featuring groundbreaking animation, imaginative storytelling, and unforgettable voice talent. John Goodman stars as the lovable James P. Sullivan (Sulley) and Billy Crystal as his wisecracking best friend, Mike Wazowski. Top scarer Sulley and his enthusiastic Scare Assistant Mike work at Monsters, Inc., the largest scream-processing factory in Monstropolis. The main power source of the monster world is the collected screams of human children. Monsters believe children are dangerous and toxic, however, and they are scared silly when a little girl wanders into their world. Sulley and Mike do their best to return the girl home, but they face monstrous intrigue and some hilarious misadventures along the way. Monsters, Inc., is "supremely clever -- fun for kids and adults alike" (CBS-TV). Treat yourself to the most entertaining movie of the year with all-new exclusive bonus features and animation for monster laughs and monster fun.
The Incredibles After creating the last great traditionally animated film of the 20th century, The Iron Giant, filmmaker Brad Bird joined top-drawer studio Pixar to create this exciting, completely entertaining computer-animated film. Bird gives us a family of "supers," a brood of five with special powers desperately trying to fit in with the 9-to-5 suburban lifestyle. Of course, in a more innocent world, Bob and Helen Parr were superheroes, Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl. But blasted lawsuits and public disapproval forced them and other supers to go incognito, making it even tougher for their school-age kids, the shy Violet and the aptly named Dash. When a stranger named Mirage (voiced by Elizabeth Pena) secretly recruits Bob for a potential mission, the old glory days spin in his head, even if his body is a bit too plump for his old super suit.
Nominated for four Oscars, The Incredibles won for Best Animated Film and, in an unprecedented win for non-live-action films, Sound Editing.
Cars From the acclaimed creators of Toy Story, The Incredibles, and Finding Nemo comes a high-octane adventure comedy that shows life is about the journey, not the finish line. Hotshot rookie race car Lightning McQueen (Owen Wilson) is living life in the fast lane until he hits a detour on his way to the most important race of his life. Stranded in Radiator Springs, a forgotten town on the old Route 66, he meets Sally, Mater, Doc Hudson (Paul Newman), and a variety of quirky characters who help him discover that there's more to life than trophies and fame. Revved up with a sensational soundtrack, featuring Rascal Flatts, Sheryl Crow, John Mayer, James Taylor, and others, plus exciting bonus features, including the exclusive short movie "Mater And The Ghostlight," Cars is full of freewheeling fun for everyone.
Ratatouille From the creators of Cars and The Incredibles comes a break-through comedy with something for everyone. With delightful new characters, experience Paris from an all-new perspective. It's "terrific movie making" raves Leonard Maltin of Entertainment Tonight. In one of Paris' finest restaurants, Remy, a determined young rat, dreams of becoming a renowned French chef. Torn between his family's wishes and his true calling, Remy and his pal Linguini set in motion a hilarious chain of events that turns the City of Lights upside down. Ratatouille is a treat you'll want to enjoy again and again.
I am really happy with my collection,the only problem I had is that when I received it one of the cases was broken but the DVD was fine. My grandchildren love the movies.

Great selection We got this for my 2.5 year old son. He hasn't watched everything yet, but this is just a great selection of movies for kids. And even adults can enjoy too. We like to take it for trips and the case does not sepalate to individual DVD, so that is only the Con. Either take the entire case or put it in a separate jewery box.
A general review for all Pixar movies I chose to review this product as it is the closest thing to being able to review all the pixar movies without reviewing each individual one. I love all of them. The only one that I kind of thought could have been a little better was WALL-E. It was a fine movie for adults, but it does not catch my son's attention fast enough to make him want to watch it. He loves the rest of the movies, and can't get enough of them. His favorite ones are Cars, Monster Inc., and Ratatouille. Pixar movies seem to be all he wants to watch everyday. I haven't seen UP yet, but from what I have heard, I am looking forward to seeing it. The thing I really like about these movies, is that they a very kid friendly, and you don't have to worry about your kids seeing or hearing things that they shouldn't, unlike a lot of the Dreamworks cartoons. The other nice thing about these movies is that they are enjoyable for adults to watch with your kids. They are not corny like most cartoons out there today. I would recommend any these films to anyone who likes to watch movies with there kids, or just likes to watch movies to take themselves back to their childhood.
So if don't own any of this films, and would like to, this set is a great place to start. The only one it doesn't have in it is WALL-E.
A great collection of Pixar Movies Seriously, if you are a huge Pixar fan like I am, then this movie collection is well worth it. Not only is it cheaper to purchase the collection instead of buying each movie separately, it's also formatted like a book, so you don't have all of the clutter of having to deal with DVD boxes, etc. I love it and so does my entire family!
Great family gift Gave this to two young boys who just love watching the videos with their parents, by themselves or sharing with friends. What's not to like!
