Yep, got mine. Watched the crap outta it already.
Tons of nice extras. I'm just happy that I have 'For the Birds" now. That is the best short film ever.

amnesiac, I must disagree!!! I found "Mike's New Car" more enjoyable than any of the Pixar shorts I've seen so far. I did like "For the Birds" too, though! :D Pixar certainly makes the purchase of their DVD's worthwhile.

Oh, yeah. Monsters Inc is my favourite Pixar film ev@r!

Those all seem to be awesome movies for showing off your home theater setups. Everytime I hit a store that specializes in audio / video / home theater, they seem to be playing Toy Story because all of the vibrant colors really show off the big screen TVs.

I saw Monsters Inc. in the theater and really enjoyed the movie.

Preordered mine, so I figure it'll show up in a week or so, which will give me some extra time to collect shines in Super Mario Sunshine. ;)

If you're really interested in bonus material, get the Toy Story Toy Box collection and the Bug's Life Collector's Edition instead of the Toy Story/2/Bug's Life set, which is just a repackaging of the Toy Story/2 and normal Bug's Life sets, minus all the really juicy bonus material. Pixar's bonus material tracks are often just as entertaining as the finished product.

We started watching the supplemental material last night. Some of it is stuff we've seen before (e.g. the four phases of development with multi-angle from storyboard to finished film), but some of the not-included in the movie stuff is excellent. It's always interesting to see the evolutionary steps in Pixar's movies to see what stuff they cut out and what paths they didn't take (Scully the helper???)

Paid 15 bucks at Walmart but I couldn't get the employee discount because it was a rollback.

Watched the movie and most of the extras last night. Great Movie, Great Cast, AWESOME animation.

Yeah, picked mine up on 12:05AM on the 17th. :) Great extras! Have you guys watched the bit about Pixar's new offices yet? MAN!! I wanna work there!! By the way, has anyone who bought their copy at Walmart had any trouble with the wide screen version? Right at the end, where Sully confronts the boss man, it glitches and locks up. The full screen version is just fine. It's really torquing me off so I'm gonna take it back to exchange it. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't a widespread issue.

I have my rental card from blockbuster but haven't picked it up yet. Some friends are coming over tonight and we'll probably watch it then.
