DVD Reviews of Pixar Short Films Collection: Volume 1 [Blu-ray]

DVD Review: Show off blu-ray
Summary: 4 Stars

This is great item for if you have full 1080p lcd tv. Pictures come greeeeat.

DVD Review: Excellent DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

There is some great talent behind Pixar, and this collection of shorts demonstrates that. If you enjoy Toy Story or the Incredibles, this disk is for you. Highly recommended.

DVD Review: Lots of Fun!
Summary: 4 Stars

It's a great way to see the evolution of CGI over the years, each of us has a favorite. Great humor for the whole family.

DVD Review: I love Pixar but
Summary: 4 Stars

I love Pixar, every single anime they did and everything they do and this is not an exception but... this is the most disappointing blu-ray I have. I should but-it in DVD format. I'm sure the DVD has the same picture quality, the same audio, the same amount of extra. Don't get me wrong I love the content but it doesn't worth to get it in blue ray. I taught for the price I could get more.

I recommend-it to any fan of Pixar to get it but it's not necessary to paid extra for the blu-ray.

DVD Review: Very poor Content
Summary: 2 Stars

In this case the cost-benefit relation is very low. The product contains very old animation and we have seen many others and more recent in the movies. Is not fair to pay such a price for such short DVD and without the most representative short films.

Pixar's unprecedented string of hit animated features was built on the short films in this collection. John Lasseter and Ed Catmull used these cartoons the way Walt Disney used the "Silly Symphonies" during the 1930s: as a training ground for artists and a way to explore the potential of a new medium. Although it's only 90 seconds long, "Luxo, Jr." (1986) ranks as the "Steamboat Willie" of computer animation: For the first time, audiences believed CG characters could think and feel. (It was also the first CG film to make audiences laugh.) When the artists began work on Toy Story, they had learned so much from the shorts, they were ready to undertake that landmark creation. In the later shorts, the viewer can see the artists continuing to experiment: with a more realistic human figure in "Geri's Game" and with new ways of suggesting atmospheric effects in "Boundin'." Some of the more recent shorts continue the adventures of the characters from the features. "Jack-Jack Attack" reveals what happened to the hapless baby-sitter while the Incredibles were off fighting Syndrome, while "Mater and the Ghost Light" shows that life goes on for the inhabitants of Radiator Springs. When Sully from Monsters, Inc. tries to adjust his seat in "Mike's New Car," the animators prolong the moment to wring every drop of humor from the situation--just as an earlier generation of animators milked Wile E. Coyote's antics for all they were worth. The long-unseen films for Sesame Street are an unexpected bonus. A delightful collection of entertaining shorts, and a significant chronicle of the growth of computer animation. (Rated G: suitable for all ages: cartoon violence) --Charles Solomon
