I saw Finding Nemo on opening day at the theater, so of course I had to buy the DVD on the day it was released (actually, I had pre-ordered it weeks before at the Disney Store)! All of the Pixar DVD sets have been absolutely fantastic, and Finding Nemo is no exception. The movie looks wonderful, and it was great to see it again and appreciate it's incredible animation. Next, I watched the documentary feature, which was complete and interesting (without having too much of that tired "how do you make an animated feature?" stuff), and then I watched the movie again with the "visual commentary", which combines the director's voice-over with tons of behind-the-scenes snippets and deleted scenes. Watching these along with the movie was actually much more fun than browsing through them all separately! The second DVD has some nice stuff, but I would have enjoyed a little more in-depth material than comedy (though the comedy is really funny, especially Exploring the Reef with Jean-Michel Cousteau). Pixar is simply an amazing studio, because they really put everything into their movies, and it really shows with Finding Nemo.Labels: disney, dvds, pixar
