am i the only one freaked out by the fact that this toddler just disappeared for 2 whole days and nobody, not even her parents, seemed to care about it?

It was unironically a different time, before helicopter parents and social media
how do you know no one cared?
because the bedroom in the end is pristine, doesn't seem to have any signs of people trying to find her, it's not taped by cops, and still has her bed light on. at which point i wonder if time in the monster universe passes the same as ours or it's different.
why would the inside of her room be police taped?
in case the cops suspected stuff like child murder or kidnapping, samples must be taken and the last area where she's been must stay off limits.
right, so they'd put the police tape OUTSIDE the room, you mouthbreather
Quality autism
she should have died
The better question is- why do you assume time moves the same way in monster world as it does in human world? There's fricking portals, wormholes, that go between dimensions...The monsters go to work in daytime and yet show up in kids' bedrooms at evening or night. And no, I don't think that means they only ever travel to the part of the world that happens to have nighttime at that time, because they traveled to many different parts of the world at the same time and they were all at night
Clearly a few days in monster world may just be one night in human world
>The monsters go to work in daytime and yet show up in kids' bedrooms at evening or night.
Shifts at Monsters Inc are based on timezones. You actually see this at the start of the movie.
>they traveled to many different parts of the world at the same time
that's not true, the scare floor is opened on one single time zone
And most of the locations in the "Global door chase" near the end are shown in daytime.
If it was nighttime in the eastern seaboard when Sully and Mike clocked in at about 9 o'clock monster time, which timezone would they be in our world that has the same time difference?
If you want to be cheeky and lean on both the Godzilla reference and the pre-production Bud Luckey backstory describing the Monster World as a "Monster Island", then Monstropolis is somewhere near Japan.
probably they plug in to a different time zone each day not for time reasons but to not overly stress the children and actually attract suspect from the adults. come to think of it, many of those are already outright traumatized.
There is a night shift at Monsters Inc, but on different scare floors then the one Sulley and Randall work on. Something from both DVD lore and MU.
I wonder if in the Monsters Inc. Universe people who are aware of the existence of monsters are labeled "conspiracy theorists" or the like. Given the implication they've been doing this for at least several decades and there's an entire procedure for contact with children Boo can't be the only one that managed to enter the Monster World by accident.
she's scarier than the monsters
>am i the only one freaked out by this toddler
honestly look at her soulless eyes. you do not want to see those at the foot of your bed at night
oh come on how could you hate such a sweet girl. granted early 2000s pixar animation was rough, but to say she's ugly is disingenuous.
Maybe the movie takes place in 12 hours in the human world
>your missing kid shows up totally fine (lol) talking about kittens and a "Mike Wazowski" after two days
Sidenote Monster's University always made me want a black ops suicide squad of Adult Scarers who when they switch to comedy start trolling psych wards and the like.
Why don't they just hook up a laugh canister to a comedy club door?
It's all forced fake laughter
>Toy Story
>A Bug's Life
>Toy Story 2
>Monsters, Inc.
Pixar sure liked Randy Newman in their early years. Good thing they went with Thomas Newman and Michael Giacchino for Finding Nemo and The Incredibles respectively.
randy newman is an excellent composer, but the idea of hearing him scatting like a downie at the end credits of finding nemo instead of listening to robbie williams is too jarring to ignore.
Was she Japanese?
her real name is mary gibbs so no
That’s the actress
that's also the girl's name.
a japanese person can have that name, i don't think she's japanese but if she was, the name wouldn't disprove it
she could have a non japanese father or grandfather or someone she got the name from, or just have it changed to a western name like some people who moved countries did sometimes, it's a lost practice but it used to be done, and she could be named a local name to where she lives, presumably somewhere english speaking whereever it is
