Monsters Inc. 2?
This is just a general question to all Disney and Pixar film buffs. Has anyone heard or has a web link for info on a Monsters Inc 2.

As far as I have heard/read, Pixar is contractually obligated to do two more films (The Incredibles-2004 and Cars-2005) and I doubt very much that they would also be taking the time to develop a sequel to Monster's Inc. Especially since sequels do not count towards their contractual fulfillment.
I would also assume that any animated sequel done by Disney would be, ummm, less-than-successful.

I know that Disney can make a Toy Story sequel by themselves because they have rights to the characters, but Monsters Inc. was released as part of the 50/50 deal between them. Like Indy says though, if Disney were to do it on their own, the results would probably be disastrous.
Not to mention that MI has a great ending that cries out for NOT having a sequel.
Let me echo the hoosier's welcome to you.

Hey all, I think I found the reason why Disney has pushed back Monsters Inc.

Read post #32 and you'll see that the rumour was a lie.

According to the post above yours, Monsters Inc. 2 is just a rumor.tlc38tlc38 wrote:Must Disney ALWAYS ruin a good thing by making a second rate sequel?
By the way, Pixar did make a good sequel with Toy Story 2. As fas as I'm concerned, that was on par with the original film. After that one, I'd say Monsters Inc. was Pixar's finest film. So if they could pull of a sequel as good as Toy Story's, I'd like to see it.

I think Pixar's proven they can do good sequels.
Anyway, I doubt Disney would be holding the BLu-ray off for another 4 years, even though they held off the LaS:SE DVD. I'm certain the blu-ray was just to coincide with the blu release of "Up", just as "Cars" and "Pixar Short Films" were released day and date with "Ratatouille".
Either way, I like the sound of a "Monsters, 2"!
