Mike's New Car
Mike discovers that being the top-ranking laugh collector at Monsters, Inc. has its benefits – in particular, earning enough money to buy a six-wheel-drive car that's loaded with gadgets. That new-car smell doesn't last long enough, however, as Sulley jump-starts an ill-fated road test that teaches Mike the true meaning of buyer's remorse.

As Good As It Gets
When I saw the DVD of Monsters inc came out, I thought this would be some cruddy part of it...but when I saw it for the first time, I was absolutely dying laughing, as there was every sight gag in the books. Everyone who is a normal person and likes to laugh, this is a must see, because even though it is about 3-5 minutes long, it is absolutely hilarious, hence the title of this. I laugh a LOT, and I only remember I have only laughed as hard as after I saw this maybe only 5 or 6 times. Anyway, if you like Daffy Duck humor, then this is the right thing for you...heck with it...if you like any humor WATCH THIS! I don't have anything else to say....but it is definitely funny...yea thats it...
This little short movie followed MONSTERS, INC. and we had already seen the Academy Award winning short FOR THE BIRDS (which I'm sorry to say, I found terrible). This short is not much better.Still, I actually laughed once on this short movie, which was actually surprising, considering that the whole thing was just plain stupid. There wasn't much of a purpose to this short film other than that maybe Billy Crystal and John Goodman enjoyed making MONSTERS, INC. so much that they wanted to keep working. Kinda like the "extended ending" on the SHREK video which was basically just a bunch of people singing karoke. Anyway, the whole isn't all that great, but I do recommend seeing this before you watch FOR THE BIRDS.MIKE'S NEW CAR: 3/5.
I absolutely loved Monsters Inc, I really did. But when I saw this film alongside the other animated shorts in the Oscar running, it seemed a little lite. Don't get me wrong. I admire the Pixar animation and whatnot. The fur alone is amazing. But I didn't walk away with anything. It was like cotton candy. I liked the German rocks movie better.
As a little extra on 'Monsters, Inc' Disney and Pixar bring us 'Mike's New Car', a terrific animated short film that was nominated for an Oscar. If you liked 'Monsters, Inc.' I see no reason why you should not like this little film. One of the two main characters of 'Monsters, Inc.', Mike (voice by Billy Crystal), has bought a new car. The other main character, Sulley (John Goodman), joins him for a drive. Sort of.This film is quite funny, especially the ending is hilarious. As with all Disney/Pixar films the animation is perfect. Especially Sulley seems almost like a real creature the way his hair and facial expressions are animated. If you like other films from Disney and Pixar Animation Studios you should not miss this one.
