Monster Zinc

Fur Crying Out Loud

Photograph copyright: DAVID McMAHON


This life-sized figure of Sully (aka James P. Sullivan) from Monsters Inc is one of few features that can actually be photographed at the Pixar: 20 Years Of Animation exhibition at the ACMI here in Melbourne. The 2001 Academy Award-winning film was the fourth animated feature produced by Pixar Animation Studios and Sully was memorably voiced by John Goodman. The film is set in Monstropolis, a city inhabited by monsters. The top ``scarer'' at the power company (Monsters, Inc.) is Sully, whose partner is the green, one-eyed Mike Wazowski (voiced by Billy Crystal). And yes, I’m very one-eyed when it comes to supporting animated film-making.

FOOTNOTE: He's a scaring, sharing kinda guy.

Hi Ms Creek,

I reckon I've watched Toy Story with my kids about 50 times and the same for the sequel.

Keep smiling

Hi Your Eminence,

I can never figure out endings of movies! Not very bright in that respect!

Keep smiling

G'day YesBut,

That is SEN-sational news. Wonderful. Shall go off and dance down Burke Street in the city now.

But yours is a site I would support vociferously, even if I never won, just because it is such fun.

Keep smiling
