I was browsing through channels and I found a Bug's Life playing. I watched a little bit of it then I noticed this. Monster's Inc:  A Bug's Life:  They're both rather similar wouldn't you agree? |

The windows are different, but that's about it.

I think they're the same. Pixar must have kept that trailer as a prop and then re-used it for Monsters, Inc.

They ARE the same, and the famous Pizza Planet Truck is also the same. This has been stated already on the Trivia section on IMDb's "Monsters, Inc." page. Apparently, these people just wander all over the country, "squatting" wherever they can find a spot to park that tin can on wheels, possibly on the run from the law somewhere. I just noticed that the trailer is sitting on wooden pallets, now HOW redneck is THAT? I'm really surprised that the little yellow Toyota isn't propped up on cinder blocks, and there's not a couple dozen fighting game roosters tethered around the yard, and a meth lab in the back.

Well the truck was originally used by a Pizza Planet Employee we see in Toy Story...guess we see more of the truck than we do him ^0^

One of the number one rules they taught me in 3-D animation. If you can re-use a model then re-use it. Why bother to model something again if you have it saved on a file somewhere? Just plopped that in a different scene, rendered and shot that. Same camera angle except the camera was moved closer for the shot, and the windows AREN'T different, it's just the distance, that's all. They stuck a light inside the trailer model and then added a porch light as well as the window on the left lacks the divider, but that's just a minor change to the original model.

WAY-cool Scream-Powered locomotive there, Remy! I'd love to get a chance to take Randall's Scream-Powered Studebaker convertible for a test drive, with HIM in it, of course...bet that thing can haul-BUTT! Just think, if he can get that technology to be adaptable for use in the Human World, Randall could solve OUR energy crisis! The oil speculators, OPEC and the CEO of Exxon would probably take out a hit on him, though...but think of the possibilities! Just put a Scream collection device inside a theater playing the latest version of "Saw"(what's it up to now, like "Saw X"?), or inside the building housing Space Mountain, or just on a kid's playground...kids don't need a reason to scream or laugh! No pollution whatsoever, no fossil fuel drilling or oil spills...you can't get any "greener" than that! Come to think of it, that would make a pretty darn good premise for a sequel, and a great way for Randall to redeem himself, if not in his own world, by becoming a hero in OURS.

Thanks pitbulllady! And yes, amen to that, I agree with everything you said there about it solving basically every energy problem we have. That WOULD make a really great sequel idea wouldn't it? I mean has a lot of potential to expand a story centered around that, and I'd actually love to see a story revolving around said concept. Space Mountain is yes....amazing, and would be a great place to collect screams. Hahah, actually, back when I was briefly living in Orlando I'd go to Disney every Wednesday since I have an annual pass. This one time I had this car on Space Mountain were NOBODY screamed or said a word once. Sort of joked about it later on that in space, I guess nobody really CAN hear you scream.   |
