DVD Review: A Great Collection of Already Released Materials
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a great collection of Pixar films the only problem is that most Pixar fan already have one or more. And this appears not to have any new special materials to make it worth buying if you are someone like me. But if you are not, this is a great collection. It contains the first eight (and as of writing this review only eight) Pixar films. All of which have received Oscar recognition.
The following are the films included:
Toy Story - Special Oscar Recipient and nominated for three Oscars (writing, music and song) - What do your toys do when you are not around? - Starring Tom Hanks as cowboy Woody and Tim Allen as Buzz Lightyear
A Bug's Life - Oscar Nominee (Music) - Flik's village is ravaged every year by the Grasshoppers and he goes off to find warrior bugs to help defend it but all he finds is a circus troop. Many people have said that this film was inspired by Akira Kurosawa's The Seven Samurai. Voices include Dave Foley, Kevin Spacey and Phyliss Diller
Toy Story 2 - Oscar Nominee (Song) - This time around, Woody is stolen by a toy collector. It's Buzz Lightyear (and Gang) to the rescue. But does Woody want to be rescued. Featuring Joan Cusack as Jessie, the Yodeling Cowgirl and Don Rickles as Mr. Potato Head.
Monster's Inc. - Oscar Winner (song) and nominated (Animated Film, Score and Sound Editing) - Monsters are sent to scare children through magic doors but what happens when a child finds it way to the monster's world. Can love beat hate? Featuring Billy Crystal and John Goodman
Finding Nemo - Oscar Winner Best Animated Feature and nominated Score, Screenplay and Sound Editing - When Nemo is kidnapped by man, it's up to dad to rescue him. Featuring the voices of Ellen Degeneres, Albert Brooks and Geoffrey Rush
The Incredibles - Oscar Winner Best Animated Feature and Best Sound Editing and nominated for Screenplay and Sound Mixing - Where do superheros go when the retire and what do they do when the retire and can they really stay retired? For the Incredibles it is raise a family but will they return to their superhero life when the world is threatened by an old nemisis? Featuring the voices of Holly Hunter, Craig T Nelson and Samuel L Jackson
Cars - Oscar Nominee (Animated Film and Song) - This is the best of the group. This film actually is a study about professional athletes who become egomaniacs with their success. Lightning McQueen is the newest superstar on the Piston Cup circuit and he is full of himself. His ego gets in his way during the final race of the season and causes a three way tie for the coveted Piston Cup. On his way to the raceoff he get lost in Radiator Springs, a sleepy little town that has gotten all but vanished when the freeway passed it by. Lightning finds the true meaning of life and friendship. Featuring the voices of Paul Newman, Bonnie Hunt, Katherine Helmond and Owen Wilson. (The film has a Pixar retrospective of John Ratzenberger that is wonderful)
Ratatouille - Oscar Winner Best Animated Film and nominated for Screenplay, Score, Sound Mixing and Sound Editing - What happens when the world's greatest chef is a field rat? He goes to Paris and teams up with the inept son a his favorite chef. This is a great farce and a new step for the Pixar franchise. Featuring the voices of Peter O'Toole, Ian Holm and perennials Brad Garret and John Ratzenberger
Once again this is a great collect but is just a compilation of the previously released dvd's. It would have been nice to include the shorts and Pixar documentaries plus something new. But this will make a nice present for expectant mothers or toddlers who may not have the films yet.

Finding Nemo
From The New Yorker
The latest flood of wizardry from Pixar, whose productions, from Toy Story onward, have lent an indispensable vigor and wit to the sagging art of mainstream animation. Whether the new movie, directed by Andrew Stanton, will add much to that resuscitation is another matter. Albert Brooks provides the voice of Marlin, a non-amusing clown fish who sees his young son, Nemo, borne off in a diver's net. Not to be daunted, and plainly unfazed by the threat of both sharks and sentimentality, Marlin sets off to rescue his only child. You'll never guess how it ends. The technical skill on show is beyond question, but, as yet another computer-generated seascape ripples past, you may be tempted to ask whether that skill is driving the story; Marlin just drifts from one semi-heroic feat to the next, and the characters seldom get their hooks, or their jaws, into you with the pointed, snippy comedy that we have come to associate with Woody and Buzz Lightyear. Also, not to be impolite or anything, but how expressive is a fish, until it hits a grill? With the voices of Geoffrey Rush, Barry Humphries, Willem Dafoe, Allison Janney, and-the funniest of the shoal-Ellen DeGeneres. -Anthony Lane Copyright © 2006 The New Yorker
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.
