Finding Nemo (2 Disc Collector's Edition) [2003]

You don't need to know the story... I'm sure you're aware it's about a fish and his dad. 'Nuff said!
This review is for the parents. My three year old son is pretty hardy but over the year or more he has been watching it I have found myself exercising various levels of censorship. On the whole it's fine but be warned Nemo's mum does get killed, there are murderous sharks, exploding war time mines and spooky deep sea beasts with large teeth!
You have been warned :)
I still love those darned turtles though.....

Be aware, this is the 4:3, not the Widescreen version!

Easy to buy it by mistake as 99.9% of DVDs are widescreen!

Toy Story 2 (2 Disc Collector's Edition) [1999]

starring: Tom Hanks, John Morris, Tim Allen, Joan Cusack, Kelsey Grammer

These days I refuse to watch most CGI movies, mainly because they can run them off a mill as many times a year as they want. For me, Toy Story 2 represents the pinnacle of Computer based films. Touching, funny, and even better looking than its predecessor, this is easily one of the greats from Pixar. I say this now because with such average attempts over the recent years such as Antz, Madagascar, and Cars, the 90's proved that its better to wait 3/4 years for a film that's quality, rather than a glut of lame attempts to cash in.

It sounds and looks even better than the video version of course (believe me, the colours are enhanced hundreds of times better than on the video) and should be bought with the original!

I loved this film almost as much as my children.
It is without doubt the best kids film ever made.
I loved Shrek and Small Soldiers , but and my kids say TOPY STORY is Number One.

Clever, imaginative, charming and very, very funny. Note the jokey references to Jurassic Park and Star Wars.

When "Toy Story" came out in the cinemas in 1995, it was seen as a revolutionary breakthrough in animation. This being the first computer generated animated film. So basically this film inspired the computer generated animated film hits "Shrek", "A Bug's Life", "Antz" and others including "The Incredibles" and "Cars".

"Toy Story" has a really fun and moving plot line. Woody (Tom Hanks), is in charge of the toys in Andy's room. He's also Andy's favourite toy. That is until Andy's birthday gets brought forward a week early and his mother gives him a surprise birthday present. That turns out to be Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen). Woody and Buzz have their disagreements but they get to respect one another before too long and they find themselves on a mission ... Read More:

The Ultimate Pixar Collection: The Incredibles, Finding Nemo, Monsters Inc., A Bug's Life [1998]

starring: Craig T. Nelson, Holly Hunter, Billy Crystal, John Goodman, Dave Foley

This is a great box set and a valuable addition to anyone's dvd collection. the only downfall is that Monsters Inc. isn't in wide-screen format, but still a great movie.

A Bug's Life is a double sided dvd with two formats on each side, either wide-screen or standard tv (4x3). The movie is not split over the two sides like other reviewers claim and there is no need to flip it over just to clarify.

I would have like Toy Story to be included but since it has it's own box set and Toy Story 3 is due in the future I'll wait.
