The scene should never have made it to the final cut in that movie.

The last time I checked, ANIMATED films don't have to be cut, nor are there any out takes or bloopers.

Have you ever seen the blooper reel from Monsters, Inc.? It's the funniest part of the film!

I recognize that Pixar's films are almost certainly digitally edited so the contents of each lab reel can be output as a batch, but non-computer-animated films have certainly been assembled by cutting negatives. Further, both hand-drawn and computer-generated movies can have real outtakes. Usually stuff that doesn't work is yanked before going to ink and paint or final rendering, but there are exceptions.

Animated fils have bloopers, outtakes and scenes cut.

"Ice Age" dvd even puta bunch of them on the DVD.

A few scenes they shot, upon editing, just simply did not work for the film, so they were cut, but were absolutely funny.

If I remember correctly, they shot a couple of different endings, did some screenings and selected the best one.

As for the bloopers, I suspect it was done for the DVD, but it too was funny.

Not entirely true.

(BTW, this is a PIXAR movie, Disney bought them after the bulk of the movie was made)

They (Pixar, Sony, et al.) do plan and render more than makes the screen - scenes are trimmed for timing, to trim the plot, and whole subplots are rendered and taken out in the editing process. Granted, the wasted footage is a pittance compared to the sheer bulk of film for a conventional movie, but there are scenes rendered which end up on the cutting room hard drive - often this material ends up as bonus material on the DVD.

As for bloopers, computer animated movies have a whole new breed of blooper, where the rendering script screws up, resulting in wierd and often hilarious scenes - the Shrek DVDs have footage of Donkey with severe hair issues, for example.

And, of course, Pixar makes intentional bloopers - the ones for 'A Bug's Life" and "Toy Story" are hilarious.
