Monsters Inc 2

[Alex]

Maybe it's just me who let this slip past the radar but

After nearly a decade away, the furry freaks Sulley and Mike are to return to the task of not-really-frightening children. Disney-Pixar has announced a sequel to Monsters Inc, the 2001 movie that became the eighth highest grossing animation of all time, taking $256m (£167m). The new film will appear in cinemas in November 2012. In the meantime, two other Disney-Pixar sequels will reach the screen – Toy Story 3 this summer and Cars 2 next year.

Sequels and spin-offs look set to dominate the animation market in the immediate future. As well as the Disney-Pixar trio, DreamWorks premiered Shrek Forever After in 3D at the Tribeca film festival this week, and Antonio Banderas has confirmed that his Puss in Boots character is to get his own vehicle, due for release next year. Shrek 2, Shrek the Third and Shrek are, respectively, the No 1, No 4 and No 6 grossing animations in history, taking a combined total of $1.03bn. Shrek Forever After, in which the green ogre is tricked by Rumpelstiltskin and finds himself in an alternate Far Far Away, is released in the UK on 9 July.

Two other animated sequels are also in production. DreamWorks has a third Madagascar film slated for release in 2012, while the Weinstein Company is working on a followup to Hoodwinked, the Red Riding Hood retelling that took $110m worldwide against an estimated budget of only $15m.

wooooop de la wooooop. Except for disney are starting to piss me off with the remakes rather than new material

I'm so pleased they're doing another one but at the same time i'm worried it won't have the same effect as the 1st one (which is one of my alltime fave films), especially as Pixar appear to be jumping on the sequel bandwagon with everyone else even more nowdays, i'd hate to see such a good story concept ruined by a rushed followup made purely for profit purposes. I can't think why they're doing a sequel to Cars other than a money maker as well as IMO the original was quite a dull film compared to other Pixar movies!

[Katie]

omg yay! I LOVE BOO shes adorable, SHE HAS TO COME BACK !!!

[FreeDee]

It'll be interesting to see if they continue with that storyline in realtime so to speak cos Boo would probably be about 13/14 now!

[Katie]

and omg did anyone else get a heart attack when watching the scene where sully is hanging on all the doors AND THERES LIKE A 10000000000000000 FOOT DROP OMG

Something i find very disturbing is the news that Pixar have actually shelved/scrapped production of a few new titles in favour of the sequel mission, i'm not just talking a few pre-vis ideas here, they were actually in the process of production and just stopped!
Seems like my biggest fear of the Disney partnership eventually taking over Pixar's production schedule to meet their own needs has started to happen....very sad....

I love Monsters Inc. Hopefully the sequel will be just as good.
As for the real time, I think they'd be better off to pick up where the first left off or just shortly beyond that point. It was good with Toy Story 3 but idk if they can pull it off again
