  Interesting fact about Boo. Since the voice actress was a toddler when she played the character she wouldn’t sit still in the recording booth, so they followed her around the studio with a microphone in order to get her lines.

  My favorite detail in this movie is how Boo stays worried when Sully shows her the empty closet. It wouldn't prove anything to her since Randal is her monster and can turn invisible.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPAtpeUvCV4&amp;t=1246">20:46</a> they kinda clarified that in the later prequel &quot;Monster University&quot;. Different kids are scared of different things, so one that is scared of lions would be well scared by someone like Sullie, and then Boo appears to be scared of reptiles so they matched her with Randall (like they said in the commercial). So yes, Randall scares her regularly

  Mike putting the door back together because he knew it would mean something to Sully still gets me. Sully had done so much for him, and it was his chance to pay his bro back.

  The scene where Sully scares the prop kid and ends up accidentally scaring Boo in the process, and the enormity of that hits him while he&apos;s reviewing the frozen frames of the video, always struck me as what a kid sees when their parent is standing over them yelling. &nbsp;<br>How scary for the kid 😞

  Your face when the big M covered Mike’s face and then your realization that Mike doesn’t care and that he only saw the positive side made me so happy 😅

  I think Boo is supposed to be talking in baby babble, since she’s just learning to speak and can only say a few actual words. But her parents must be really confused when she comes home and starts repeating “Mike Wazowski” a bunch XD

  I don’t care if he was a bad guy; when Randal’s sidekick is in the scream extractor it still disturbs me to even just think about it.

  Fun Fact: Billy Crystal (Mike) was originally offered to play either Woody or Buzz in Toy Story, but he turned it down thinking the movie wouldn’t amount to anything. Once he saw it was a massive hit, he immediately accepted the role of Mike in this movie.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPAtpeUvCV4&amp;t=1070">17:50</a> - a bit to explain what Boo is saying- <br>The studio cast a little girl and tried putting her in front of a microphone. But they found that she was shy and didn&apos;t want to make much noise when they did it. So they set up a playroom and followed her around with microphones to record what they could. <br>Presumably, later they found good spots to put the different recordings within the film. So, for example, her being upset and screaming in the studio would be used in the apartment when Mike takes the bear from Boo.<br><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPAtpeUvCV4&amp;t=1175">19:35</a> - with Boo speaking gibberish, the little girl they recorded was only about 2 or 3 years old. Vocal enough to make lots of noise, but not old enough to have a big vocabulary yet.

  Part of me wished that it was a slightly older Boo saying &quot;Kitty?&quot; at the end, implying that she still remembered what would only be believed as an imaginary friend.
