It’s going to be an amazing film thanks to the films director Dan Scanlon (ā€œCars,ā€ ā€œMater and the Ghostlight,ā€ ā€œTracyā€) and producer Kori RaeĀ (ā€œUp,ā€ ā€œThe Incredibles,ā€ ā€œMonsters, Inc.ā€).Ā  It also features music from future Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Randy Newman (ā€œMonsters, Inc.,ā€ ā€œToy Story 3ā€).

This is such an amazing group of film makers and talent, how can this film not be amazing!

Scanlon says the cast was able to bring the story to life with great ingenuity and enthusiasm. ā€œWorking with this group of actors was an extraordinary experience. They each brought a unique level of humor, emotion and creativity to their work that not only complemented their individual performances, but made the overall story come together in a really wonderful way.ā€

From the 40 Minutes I saw of the film while attending Monsters U myself, I can tell you this film is not one to miss!
