I have a collection of DVDs with audio_ts and video_ts folders that have a menu where you select chapters, etc., and I want to watch these movies on my phone. I move movies to my phone using the VLC app, so they have to be in video format. How do I do this?

Handbrake seems like a suitable solution for your needs if you want to transcode the movies and make them smaller in size.
You should be able to install it from Ubuntu's Software Center or you can install it from the terminal by typing the following (if sudo asks for a password enter the one of the user you're currently logged in with):
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install handbrake
Depending on your distribution you might not get the latest version, so you may want to install it through Handbrake's PPA by typing the following commands:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:stebbins/handbrake-releases
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install handbrake-gtk
//EDIT:
If you want to keep the menus you could make the DVD as a .iso file which should be played by VLC for Android (I have no idea about iPhone). Creating .iso files from DVD is already discussed on the site, you could take a look at one of these topics for example:
