review for Pixar shorts collection

[monkeyjb1988]

Awesome. I didn't watch all the shorts, but the shorts I did watch (if you care, Andre and Wally B, Mike's New Car, and Boundin), they looked beautiful. Wally B was a little shaky video wise, but it was okay considering that this short may not have been stored in the best conditions and there really isn't that much to see (the makers were happy that it was made period). It still looked pretty good. Boundin and Mike's New Car were fantastic.
I also loved the documentry that told the story behind the pre Toy Story shorts (the doc was light on info about the later shorts). It was entertaining, informative, and had a few extra tidbits that makes it valuble to Blu-Ray owners. It shows how a 480 video looks on Blu (the Luxo Jr. shorts from Sesame Street; they made Wally B look magnificent) and it gives a glimpse on what a Blu-Ray of Toy Story will look like (pretty nice, I might say).
The place where I watched it didn't have a 7.1 HD awesome sound system, but it sounded alright from what I did hear.
Add the fact that most of the shorts are classics (I've seen 11 of the 13 shorts on various DVDs and I think they are all great shorts), this is a must buy for anyone with a Blu-Ray player (or the DVD version for those with DVD players, but this ain't exactly a forum for DVDs now, is it? ).
