It is always exciting to hear about what Pixar is up to. And apparently Toy Story is not the only franchise going to the sequel farm. International Licensing Expo floor was a buzz about a sequel to Monster’s Inc.
several of the buyers still revealed how excited they are about news that director Pete Docter will be following up Pixar’s “Up” with a sequel to “Monsters Inc.”
This of course is just convention floor chatter and bolstered by an alleged search Pixar staffers made for “monsters 2013” and while no one was denying it, its also a stretch to call it a confirmation.
If the story was worth telling, I could see a sequel, but the movie kinda ended on a solid note. The Monsters Inc company realized that their energy shortage (which they derrived from the screams of children in the Earth Realm) was non-existant once they realized the power of a child’s laughter was 10 times more potent.
So where is the story?
I never doubt Pixar (they have earned that much) but I would have to hear more before I get excited about this.
