Before soft openings, the attraction was known as the Laugh Floor Comedy Club. By the time the soft openings started, the name was changed to the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor Comedy Club. Before the attraction offialy opened the name was once again changed to the current name, the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor.

Attraction Plot

The Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor is an interactive show that uses "digital puppetry". The attraction is based on the Disney-Pixar movie Monsters, Inc. The Laugh Floor takes place in the fictional world of Monstropolis.

Queue and Backstory

As guests are waiting in line for the Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor, Mike Wazowski appears on television screens in the room to explain how the club got its start.

The backstory for the attraction takes place after the events in Monsters, Inc. Monstropolis is now running on clean and safe "laugh power" instead of fear. The new energy works well, but there is one problem. There is currently not enough laughter to fuel Monstropolis. To solve this problem, Mike Wazowski suggests that they open a Laugh Club. Humans are temporarily transported to Monstropolis via special doors in Tomorrowland, and their laughter from the club will help fuel Monstropolis.

After the video is show, guests are ushered inside the Laugh Club to their seats.

Main Show

When guests begin to get seated, the theaters cameras will located guests and show them on the main screen. A humorous captain will then appear such as"

"Will by everyone a Churro"

After everyone is seated, Roz (from the movie Monsters Inc.) appears on the left screen and explains to everyone how laugh power works.

"See that giant canister, that's where we collect your laughter. The more you laugh the more power we collect. The less you laugh...well..we may not have enough power to open to the exit doors"

After Roz is finished, the MC (Monster of Ceremonies) Mike Wazowski appears on the center screen. He introduces himself as "Wazowski with one eye", then begins to tell jokes about Roz.

"Why did the chicken cross the Road?.....To get away from Roz!

As Mike is telling the jokes about Roz, she appears again on the left screen, predictably unamused. She tells Mike he better "fill the can this time, or else". When Mike retorts with "or else what", she pushes a button which opens a trap door below. Mike can be heard crashing below, but luckily he reappears on the right screen where he introduces the first act.

While Mike is making jokes about Roz he informs guests that "you stink" is a compliment in the monster world. When he says this, an adult male appears on screen. Whoever is chosen at this time is known as "that guy" for the remainder of the show. Subsequent monsters will make jokes with "that guy" as the punchline (ie. "That Guy Joke")

Mac and Jeeves

The first act at the Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor is a two headed yellow Monster named Mac and Jeeves (although the monster can go by other names depending on the cast member performing. Mac (the smaller of the two heads) boasts that he is a master of human world geography and that he knows every capital in the world. Jeeves is skeptical, so to prove his knowledge he asks the humans to name name any country. After they do, Mac's answer is usually a humorous side-step of the question (ie. saying the capital of Canada is "C". Following this bit, a large map descends from behind Mac and Jeeves, and they ask the humans if they know where they (the humans) are from. After a guest says their hometown, Mac will give a completely wrong (albeit humorous) description of the location. An example of this routine is:

Jeeves: "Humans put your hands high in the air if you know where you live."

The audience camera then picks a guest out to answer the question.

Guest: "Venezuela"

Mac: "Venezuela is a tiny Arctic country located in the middle of the North Arctic Ocean, famous for ski resorts and the Eiffel Tower!

After repeating this routine with a couple of guests, Mac and Jeeves then decide to recreate the story of Monsters Inc. using guests from the Audience. Different audience members are selected to portray characters from the movie and they are given silly facial expressions to make. After all of the characters have been selected, Mac and Jeeves retell the story very quickly, and the guests have to make the expressions fast in order to keep up. Finally, Roz pushes the trap door button again, and it's time for the second act.

Marty Wazowski

The final act of the Laugh Floor is none other than Mike's nephew Marty. Marty looks like a smaller orange version of Mike, and his act is pretty much a stand up routine. Marty starts out with a monologue. His first couple jokes usually involve his mother ("She really does have eyes on the back of her head") or some kind of pun ("I have a test tomorrow but i'm not" worried...It's an eye exam!"). After he has finished his monologue, Marty reads some of the jokes that guests sent in. He reads three or four of those before going back to his own jokes. The final jokes of his routine usually require some participation. Marty usually calls on young children to help him with these final jokes.
