I see what you did there.

Without ranking them, it's one of my favorite Pixar flicks.

I don't post in the HD forum but I'm excited to see this come out on HD. Kevin Spacey's "Hopper" is worth the price of admission.

I'd be happy having only Pixar movies to play on Blu-Ray.

That's not how it looks from here!

Yes, but you're the kind of sober-liver who doesn't post in the HD forum.

I love A Bug's Life, too. Looking on IMDB I see it made about 30 Million less than Toy Story did. It doesn't get the fanfare Toy Story does. Maybe partially because of the perceived competition that year of Antz? I hope Disney gives this a big push.

LOL.

I can't wait to see what this looks like.

Remember the hubbub back in the day how this film was recomposited for 4:3 presentation?

Isn't it sad that I want a slipcover almost as bad as extra features.

So is the idea that this is the least popular of the back catalog and that's why it gets priority? Because if Nemo and Incredibles and Toy Story were also on the shelf, you're less likely to ever buy this?

If so, what would be next, Monster's Inc?

Doesn't matter to me (or most here, I imagine) as they're all gold.

I just hope we get more than 1 catalog title a year, otherwise, what 6 years?

even though Cars is my least favourite, this comes right behind, I'll more than likely buy this.

My favorite Pixar movie. I know I'm the minority. I just love the tone of this one. I guess because it was my first DVD too.

"A Bug's Life" is my least favorite, but I'll probably pick it up. "Cars" is my favorite, followed by "Monsters, Inc". I guess it takes all types.

Absolutely buying this. Also, I think we can keep hope alive for another one towards May for the release of Up! in theaters.

Say it ain't so!!

I too like Monsters, Inc better than Nemo, but The Incredibles is by far my favorite Pixar feature.

What a luxury it is being a Pixar fan!
