2001 was a phenomenal year for movies. Shrek, Harry Potter (the first one), Fast and the Furious, Monsters Inc., Rush Hour 2, Oceans Eleven, Bridget Jones Diary. Imagine all these cult classics in the span of one year. Its inconceivable to have so many great films release in the same year in todays day and age. Take Monsters, Inc. for starters just the premise itself monsters appearing in kids bedrooms to make them scream because their entire world runs on the energy emitted by a childs screams. Its pure art a child screams, it fills up a battery, and thats used to power the monster world.Well probably never get films as great as that again, but nostalgia is a powerful tool, and so is the LEGO brick. Recreating perhaps one of the most iconic elements of Monsters, Inc. is Pester78s rendition of Boos door. The way it worked in the movie was that doors were portals to the human world. The Monsters, Incorporated company had a replica of every single door to every childs bedroom on the planet. Doors docked into a rig, portals got activated, monsters went about scaring children, while the screams of kids charged a battery cell attached to the rig. Pester78s LEGO recreation rebuilds this rig with immaculate detail, capturing the most pivotal and memorable moment of the entire movie!Designer: Pester78The entire rig is designed to move with stunning accuracy, replicating the movie frame for frame. Boos door docks into the rig, which gets secured by two mechanical jaws on either side. Unlike most LEGO builds which are purely static, this one is as animated as they come, with moving parts that almost feel like youre watching the movie. The colors, patterns, proportions are perfect, and those flowers on Boos door are *chefs kiss*.The door locking mechanism works like it should. It clamps, it moves, it feels like it belongs in the actual factory. The scream canister isnt decorativeits part of the system. Control panels, mechanical arms, exposed cabling, and that deliciously chaotic Pixar industrial design all show up without apology. You can practically hear the dull hum of the factory floor and the screech of a door being slotted into place, with Rozs droning voice in the background being an absolute caricature of the bureaucracy-loving secretary who wouldnt resist complaining about you not following protocol.Its funny how something as simple as a door can evoke the level of nostalgia as this build does. It has no characters, no Sulley, no Mike, no Randall, not even tiny Boo, Yet it commands such strong memories. Im probably going to rewatch Monsters, Inc. just after this! And I guess thats a victory for this MOC (My Own Creation).Theres no official part count yet, but eyeballing it, youre looking at 800 to maybe 1000 pieces. Not massive, but enough to make you work for it. Enough to make you sit down, dump the bags out, and hear Randy Newmans score creeping into your head whether you like it or not. The build is aimed squarely at people who carePixar nerds, LEGO nerds, anyone who remembers Boo calling Sulley Kitty like it was yesterday.Pester78s creation is currently a submission on the LEGO Ideas forum, where independent LEGO builders share their creative work, while the broader LEGO community votes for their favorite designs. With over 3,000 votes and 589 days till the voting ends, this particular kit is surely on its way to hitting the 10,000 vote mark, following which itll get sent to LEGOs internal team for review and hopefully turned into a box set perhaps with movie characters to complete the scene!
