After exploring the worlds of toys and bugs in the two Toy Story films and A Bug's Life, Monsters, Inc. (Peter Docter, Lee Unkrich, David Silverman, 2001) became the fourth major film by Pixar Animation Studios. The computer-animated comedy centers on two monsters, James P. "Sulley" Sullivan and his one-eyed partner and best friend Mike Wazowski. They are employed at the energy-producing factory Monsters, Inc., which generates power by scaring human children. However, the monster world believes that the children are toxic, and when one sneaks into the factory, that child must be returned home before it is too late. Monsters, Inc. was released by Walt Disney Pictures.
The story of Monsters, Inc. (Peter Docter, Lee Unkrich, David Silverman, 2001) begins in a city of monsters with no humans called Monstropolis. Central to this world is the Monsters and Co. factory, where energy is generated to keep everything in the monster world running. This energy is obtained from the cries of fear of children. The employees of the factory aim to scare children in order to collect these fear cries. To do this, they travel to children's bedrooms through special doors. The monsters themselves regard this work as very dangerous, as they believe that children are a danger to them. Therefore, any contact with children is avoided as much as possible. A special unit, the Child Detection Agency (CDA), keeps a strict watch on all doors. However, things are not going well for the company because many children nowadays are not so easily frightened. The CEO of Monsters and Co., Henry J. Waternoose, has more and more trouble keeping the factory running. The best employee of the company is a lovable, confident, tough, furry blue behemoth-like giant monster named James P. Sullivan (better known as Sulley). One day a little girl accidentally follows him into the monster world. Before he can send her back, the door to her room is returned to the storeroom. Sulley is now forced to keep her hidden. He does this with the help of his wisecracking best friend and colleague, short, green cyclops monster Mike Wazowski. The two soon discover that all the stories about children being poisonous are false. The two give the girl the name "Boo", and try to find a way to send her back home. Until then, they disguise her as a monster.
Monsters, Inc. marks the first Pixar feature to not be directed by Lasseter instead being helmed by Docter, as well as Lee Unkrich and David Silverman who served as co-directors. It was Pete Docter's debut. The film was executive produced by John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton. The idea for Monsters, Inc. was conceived in a lunch in 1994 attended by Lasseter, Docter, Stanton, and Joe Ranft during the production of Toy Story. One of the ideas that came out of the brainstorming session was a film about monsters. Docter began developing the film in 1996 and wrote the story with Jill Culton, Jeff Pidgeon, and Ralph Eggleston. Stanton wrote the screenplay with screenwriter Daniel Gerson. The characters went through many incarnations over the film's five-year production process. The technical team and animators found new ways to simulate fur and cloth realistically for the film. Randy Newman, who composed the music for Pixar's three prior films, returned to compose for its fourth. Upon its release, Monsters, Inc. received critical acclaim. At AllMovie, Derek Armstrtong wrote: "Even with a pastel universe of computer tricks at their disposal, the story is what really pushes a Pixar movie over the top -- what made the Toy Story movies so grand, and what left A Bug's Life short of greatness. Monsters, Inc. may burst at the seams with visual stimulants, but it's the delightful premise, fleshed out through a superior script, that helped scare up one of the largest opening weekends ever, paving the way for a monster-sized hit." The film grossed over $577 million worldwide and became the third highest-grossing film of 2001. The film won the Academy Award for Best Original Song for 'If I Didn't Have You' and was nominated for the first Best Animated Feature, but lost to DreamWorks' Shrek, and was also nominated for Best Original Score and Best Sound Editing. Monsters, Inc. saw a 3D re-release in theaters in 2012. A prequel titled Monsters University, which was directed by Dan Scanlon was released in 2013. A television series/sequel titled Monsters at Work premiered on Disney+ in, 2021. No monsters were harmed in the making of this motion picture.

“Claude Nolan Inc. The Distributer of Cadillacs (cars) in Florida. They sold Pontiacs. This picture was taken on the corner of Main & Orange Streets downtown. They started in 1905 as a Cadillac dealer and have been one ever since that time. In 1975, they moved the dealership to 4700 Southside Blvd.” LS
The original Claude Nolan Cadillac showroom Building was designed by Jacksonville architect Henry John Klutho in 1912 as a brick and glass prairie school style structure with attached garage buildings. It was remodeled beyond recognition in the 1940’s into the pseudo-modern current configuration seen in this mid 1960’s photograph (The window signs announce the arrival date for the 1965 Pontiacs). Boarded up for a number of years it now faces demolition as part of the efforts to clean up the toxic waste in the Confederate Park and Hogans Creek area from Coal Tar left behind from a gas manufacturing plant dating to the 1880’s.
