Overall, I thought the graphics were cute and well done. The storyline was good (exactly the same as the movie as far as I can remember) but somehow felt really short... although with that being said, I haven't watched the movie in years so it's hard for me to say if any scenes were cut out. For some reason, Randall is the only scarer in the first film that is referred by his first name on the Scarers' Leaderboard rather than by his last name "Boggs". At one point, this implies that Randall was actually going to be his last name rather than his first name.

While Waternoose is Randall's boss, he is more compassionate and well-mannered than Randall and had more firm reasons for his actions as he was trying to save his company from bankruptcy and stop the energy crisis, while Randall was doing it purely for personal gain and enjoyment, and also for his hatred and grudge against Sullivan and Mike since college, showing he cannot get over from a minor problem. Randall is also quite sour shown when Watnernoose told him "Sulley is twice the scarer you'll ever be." Randall has no concept of forgiveness and compassion, as stated by Sulley. Randall only cares about himself and winning, and doesn't care about anyone else, including Waternoose. In fact, it is indicated, when reminded by Waternoose that there cannot be any witness to their plan, that Randall was planning to betray & kill Waternoose once the plan succeeds.

[11] One of the ideas that came out of the brainstorming session was a film about monsters. "When we were making Toy Story", Docter said, "everybody came up to me and said 'Hey, I totally believed that my toys came to life when I left the room.' So when Disney asked us to do some more films, I wanted to tap into a childlike notion that was similar to that. I knew monsters were coming out of my closet when I was a kid.
